Farmstead Golf & Country Club - Valleyview/Lakeview Course
Played On 10/06/2017Don’t play if you can’t pick your 18
Farmstead is a very good value for money course. That out of the way, they have an 18 hole course (lake/club) and a 9 hole course (valley). It seems that they are putting golf now customers on a 18 layout mixing valley in there when it is not mentioned. Valley is poorly maintained and lacks a good layout that the other 9’s have. Teeboxes were really bad on all 9’s this year and overall maintenance has seemed to decline from previous years. Post what 18 will be active for the day.
Raceway Golf Club
Played On 09/22/2017Heading In The Right Direction
Being the first time I played this course, I could immediately tell the course is trying to improve itself. A few greens are being modernized which is a pleasant thing to see. Pretty short course but challenging at times, a few memorable holes. Golf carts need help. No windshields. Decent practice facility.
Hiland Park Country Club
Played On 08/25/2017Great value, Slow Pace
Hiland is a great course in great shape but they need to be more organized with their tee sheet. A 5 hour round is way too long for this short of a course. Golf carts need some help too.
Great Gorge Golf Club - Lake/Quarry Course
Played On 08/13/2017Glad it's open but still needs help.
2 days after rain, course very wet. Cart paths are atrocious. Greens are fast, but all domed with signs of age. If you can get a good price, go for it, it's fun.
The Architects Golf Club
Played On 10/08/2016No Notice Of Aeration/Come On Time
Greens and Fairways are spiked with no alert. Starter was extremely rude if you book with Golf Now regarding starting early, accommodations etc. If you have problems with golf now golfers, don't use golf now. That being said, nice layout back nine, front 9 is a swamp. Bunkers are concrete. Bring bug spray. Clubhouse is a wedding hall, not a clubhouse.
Crystal Springs Golf Club
Played On 09/23/2016Resort Golf Near Home
Awesome Layout. Just be mindful of your ball selection because you can lose many of them. Be prepared for a long round. Crystal stacks tee-times way too close, so you always get backed up. Greens need some work as they seem really slow. Good bit of ground under repair but at least that shows they care. Course price is great value if you can get a reduced rate. Clubhouse bar is a ripoff.
Wild Turkey Golf Club
Played On 06/24/2016Great Design
I'd give it a 5 out of 5 if the bunkers (which there are a ton of) were in better shape. The fairways were aerated too, but will recover as the crystal springs courses always do.
Ballyowen Golf Club
Played On 11/06/2015Beautiful Course, slow play.
They stack golfers too close so the pace of play is affected to the point you're always waiting for your next shot. A 5h12m round on a Friday mid day is terrible. Other than that, beautiful course. Stands up to an expensive resort course quality.
Black Bear Golf Club
Played On 09/18/2015Good luck finishing if it's late
They stack everyone up with no gaps so the course backs up. Also as most courses are in the fall, they are doing serious aeration.
Dear rangr514,
I am sorry you were unhappy with your golfing experience on 10/6. Please be aware that when you buy a “Hot Deal” from Golf Now, the golf club where you will play has no involvement or control over those tee times. Golf courses provide Golf Now with Tee times in exchange for the use of their GolfNow system, but then those tee times (prices and location) are fully controlled by Golf Now. We did just submit a request to GolfNow to include the location of the course when they advertise their “Hot Deals”. I was surprised by your criticism of our golf course….We put a lot of work into and take a lot of pride in the maintenance Farmstead Golf & Country Club and normally receive excellent reviews. We encourage you to visit our website at www.farmsteadgolf.com where all of our tee times indicate date, time, and course rotation….I am confident you will enjoy your experience and surroundings.
Bob Phoebus, owner, Farmstead Golf & Country Club
