Not Bad

Overall, I liked the course. It's not too, easy, yet it's open enough to accommodate hacks, like most of us are. The greens were very firm though, so play short..they did not hold. Hopefully, they're able to water during this dry spell!

On a bad note, there was a sixsome in front of us. They didn't know enough to let us play through, and the club house did nothing about it.

Had Fun..but

Overall we had a good day, at Glenbrier. As others have said, there are blind shots to contend with, the greens are small and do not hold, short is good! The course was in very good shape, and I like how they trim up the many spruce trees. The electric golf carts were a treat too.

The clubhouse is fantastic, as was the lovely bar tender.

On a bad note, we got stuck behind a sixsome, and they were too ignorant to let us play through. When I mentioned this, after the round, I was informed the owner did not want to hire a ranger.

Not Bad, For a Hot Deal

This course, is not my cup of tea, but it may be yours. Too many dog legs, on the front. I liked the back side better. Over all - the course conditions were so-so. Again, not bad, for a Hot Deal.

Gear shift: When I arrived, there was a young lady working the bar and check in counter. She was mixing a drink and said she'd be with me in a moment. When she was finished, she asked what she could do for me, and I told her my name and tee time. Her response, "Don't tell me, Golf Now?" I said, "yes." Her reply, "I hate Golf Now!" "They never inform us when they've booked a tee time." Well, I find that hard to believe, since I'm immediately notified, once I book. I'd think the course is too.

I booked as a single, but expected to play with 3 others, as seen when I booked. However, she gave me a cart, and said, "Go when you're ready." So, I did, and while waiting for a pair ahead of me to tee off, another gentleman drove up in a cart. He got the same 1:07 hot deal as me. We played together, as a twosome, with 2 carts. Fast round for us, but not too profitable for Willow Brook. Clearly, this young lady needs some training.

Nice Place

Other than poor timing for course maintenance,
watering fairways and mowing at 1:30, we enjoyed our round.

With very nice fairways and greens, the course plays well.

I will certainly return.

No Complaints

Nice greens and open fairways. You may shoot a career round, at Hawk Meadow. It's a good value, even for their ordinary rates.

Side note, on #3, I nearly had my first ace. On the fly, my ball slam dunked the cup, only to catch part of the flag. The ball ended up 10 feet from the hole, but I missed my birdie putt!

Very well maintained and no complaints. I wouldn't necessarily pay full price, though. There are too many deals to be had, through golfnow.

Great Value

I can't imagine, anybody giving this course a bad review, unless they had a bad round and needed something to blame: great tee boxes, fairways and greens. Plain and simple, Hunters Ridge is a nice!

No Complaints

I was politely greeted, when I arrived. The starter informed us of a novice couple in front of us. He said, if they slow us down, to give them a call. About the midway point, a Ranger stopped and asked if everything was OK. We were done in less than 4 hrs.

The course is in good shape, and I'll play there again.

Nice Course

Being a duffer, it would have been nice if the rough was cut a bit shorter. It promotes faster play (not looking for a buried ball).

Other than that, it's a very nice course!

I'll Be Back

It's a nice course...with friendly and tough holes . Very nice scenery too, especially on the "new" nine! :)

My only "complaint"... the tee boxes need some work.

Can't Go Wrong

The course was in good shape, and the greens weren't too fast. Fast greens, in particular on the front side, could make your blood pressure rise to unsafe levels! :)

The course features long par 3's and "reachable" par 5's.

There may not be a better golf value around!
