Jack Frost National Golf Course
Played On 06/03/2017Ranger danger
The layout and conditions of this course are great. The staff is somewhat questionable though. Rangers are out on course and constantly writing your cart number down. I can appreciate them wanting to keep up pace of play, but when it is quite obvious that pace is being upheld there really is not any reason to stalk people around the course.

Five stars across the board for this course. Staff were very friendly, course was in excellent shape and a layout that made you play a variety of shots. It really is a tale of two nines here, the front is more open, while the back nine takes you out into the woods, all while going up and down through the hills. I really can't say enough good things about BH, and I will definitely return if the opportunity arises.
Camillus Hills Golf Club
Played On 09/15/2016Camillus
Decent course, for the price you can't go wrong. Lots of elevation changes, but seemed to play shorter than the yardage. Green in above average condition, fairways were ok. Driving range was not great, but again for the price of a round here you can't really complain.
Heron Glen Golf Course
Played On 08/26/2016One of the best in the area
I have played this course on multiple occasions and it always exceeds expectations. While most courses this time of year are getting brown and generally show a lack of upkeep, Heron Glen is a model of consistency.
From tee to green this course is in excellent shape. Aerating had taken place earlier in the week, but the greens were still in great condition and they gave out a coupon for a free lunch as compensation.
Definitely one of the best in the area, I am always impressed with Heron Glen.
Vineyard National Golf Course
Played On 08/20/2016Don't Bother
Unless you can find a deal for under $30 I would not bother playing here. From tee to green this course needs a lot of work. Tee boxes had crab grass, clover and were generally very hard. Bunkers had very little sand and lots of rocks. Greens were browning out lots of divots.
Iron Valley Golf Club
Played On 06/04/2016Two nine hole courses
This course plays completely different on the front and back nines. Pace of play on a busy Saturday was average- about 5hrs for our group of 3. Worth playing once, but not a course I would go out of my way to play again which is disappointing considering how much I was looking forward to playing here.
Royal Manchester Golf Links
Played On 06/03/2016Excellent course
Great layout, fast greens, high rough that punishes offline shots. Definitely a good test of your game. I cannot find a single negative thing to say about this course. It is a must play and well worth the drive.
The Links at Stono Ferry
Played On 11/26/2015Stono Ferry
Excellent course outside of Charleston. Holes were challenging with varied layout. Played on Thanksgiving and staff was still very friendly. The back nine is very impressive with a little history thrown in on a couple holes.
RiverTowne Country Club
Played On 11/25/2015RiverTowne
Beautiful layout and excellent conditions. Greens were rolling pretty fast. Decent practice facility. They were repairing bunkers on multiple holes and there was a temporary par three as one hole was getting work done, but overall this course was in great shape.
Patriots Point Golf Links
Played On 11/23/2015Patriots Point
This course probably gets overlooked due to the quality and diversity of courses in the Charleston area, but I can say I was pleasantly surprised. Got a great price on GolfNow that made the round well worth the money. Front nine had one or two memorable holes, but the back nine is where this course shines. Great views of the harbor and the island green par three made this a course I would play again. Pace of play was pretty good, although it was a Monday morning so not many golfers out on the course. Not a must play in the Charleston area, but as a cheaper alternative to some of the big name courses, Patriots Point gives you an enjoyable round.
Thank you for the great review! We look forward to having you back out on the course!
Charleston National Golf Club
Played On 11/22/2015Charleston National
Excellent course with all the amenities that you would expect of a championship course. Large practice facility and decent pro shop. Staff was very friendly from the moment I parked my car. I was barely out of the vehicle and there was a cart by my trunk with an attendant waiting to load my bag.
Course has a challenging layout with many forced carries over marshes. Much like other Rees Jones courses, his use of the natural layout of the land really shines. The greens and fairways were in great condition. I would call this a must play course in the Charleston area.
Broad Run Golfer's Club
Played On 10/23/2015Broad Run
Amazing course with incredible views. This has quickly become my favorite course in Southeastern PA. The elevation changes and blind shots give this course character that isn't found in many other places. Many times you will end up playing to a yardage due to hazards, but it makes for an interesting round. Can't say enough about how great this golf club is... Highly recommend getting a round in here.
Heron Glen Golf Course
Played On 10/04/2015Heron Glen
Decent layout and very well maintained course. Played in 20+ mph winds so it made for an interesting day. Most of the course is pretty exposed so I would imagine that wind is always something to deal with in the spring and fall. Clubhouse is nothing great, but the carts are well maintained and the staff was friendly.
Macoby Run Golf Course
Played On 09/20/2015Macoby
This is a family owned and operated course built on converted farmland. I have played here on multiple occasions as a single and with groups and I very much enjoy it. Nothing too memorable, but the course is kept in good conditions except for a green or two that don't see a lot of sun so the grass is a little patchy.
Has some decent elevation changes on 4-5 holes. Pretty open layout, very little in the way of sand traps and water hazards. Even after some pretty heavy rains the course was in good shape.
The Bucks Club
Played On 09/20/2015Fast greens
This course is 10 min from my house so I will play here 3-4 times a year. Greens are pretty fast and undulating. Depending on the pin placements approach shots can be quite frustrating. I have walked this course, but don't recommend it as the back nine is quite hilly and you have to cover some ground between holes.Overall an above average course with friendly staff and nice amenities.
Fox Hollow Golf Club
Played On 09/18/2015Fox Hollow
If you are looking for a cheap mid week round you can't go wrong here. Check their website or teeoff, but do not pay full price. I play here 5-6 times a year due to how cheap it is. Pace of play can be frustrating at times due to no rangers being out on the course.
Overall it's just an average course with a couple decent holes. Nothing especially memorable about the course but the price is usually right to make it worthwhile.
Locust Valley Golf Club
Played On 09/06/2015Bring your flip flops
I have to say that even when I go to the beach I don't spend as much time in the sand as I did during my round here. Pretty much every green is protected by decent sized bunkers, and the fairway bunkers are in play on most of the holes. The course is well maintained and our Sunday morning round played in about 4.5 hours. We had to wait on a couple holes as the fairways are back to back so errant tee shots find adjacent holes pretty easily, but overall the round moved along at an average pace.
I will definitely play this course again.
Bella Vista Golf Course
Played On 08/16/2015Bella Vista
Drove an hour to get here and was not disappointed. Staff was friendly, the starter gave us some tips for a couple holes which was nice as no one in the group had played the course before. Liked the par 3's, especially the island green. Overall it's well worth the money and I will definitely be returning here.

Thank you for the feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed the course and hope you will return.
We do try and make sure pace is moving and our staff does right down times along the way. This is just the way we track our pace of play and I'm sorry you took offense to it.
Thanks again
