The course is in great shape, greens are fast and roll true. Only issue I had was pace of play which is usually an issue almost anywhere on a public course. Staff was pleasant and helpful with the pace of play issue. And a few groups let me through so I could finish my round instead of waiting behind them. I recommend this course.

Beautiful scenery especially this time of year. Unfortunately the course has suffered damage from all of the rain. One temp green. But it’s very playable and the greens are in good shape. For what I paid I can’t complain. Played with some cool people and enjoyed the round. I’ll be back

Apple 9 does just fine

Took my son to play who is 12 off his second lesson. Greens were fast and true. Faster than the Jones course greens which I played on Wednesday. My son holed the longest putt of the day! Staff is always friendly. Great place to bring my son for a fun well conditioned 9 holes.

I grew up playing this course and I’m in the men’s club this year. Greens are almost fully recovered from aeration. Course is always in good condition. Played 18, the back 9 as a 5 some and still waited every shot. Beautiful day always equals a long round here! So be prepared.

Always like playing this course

Just trying to scrape off the rust before a trip to Myrtle Beach. I never usually have a problem with who I’m paired with but this guy in our group would literally walk ahead after every shot and literally never looked behind him when doing this. I told him heads up a couple times and saved him from getting hit by a ball or 2......he never helped look for anyone’s ball and literally stood in the middle of the fairway 150 yards in front of me with his back to me, I lost it at this point on the par 5 12th. I’ve never played with anyone before who did this!

A good time on the Apple 9

Weather was perfect and the perfect place to bring my 11 year old son. This course is always in good condition. The flags were in the absolute hardest positions and the greens roll true a fast. 4th time playing there this year, they definitely deserve a good review

This was my 4th and final round of the week. I heard good things about the course and I wasn’t disappointed! Beautiful golf course in great condition! Not an easy course, a lot of trouble if your spraying it like I did. Unfortunately I was behind a shotgun tournament which made for a long round. But I would definitely play again. Nice outdoor snack bar with shaded patio.

I called ahead and asked if my 10 year old son who doesn’t play tee to green yet could join me and they appreciated me doing so and they let him out with me without any additional cost. Kudos to Eagle Creek Golf Club for that. We had a great time! Greens were quick and smooth. The course was in great condition! I drove 40 minutes from my condo and would do it again! We had encounters with the wildlife but thankfully just 2 friendly noisy birds :)

First time at Crooked Cat

This was my first time playing here and the reviews I read were very accurate. From the bag drop to checking in with the pro shop to the starter EVERYONE was friendly and helpful. The course was in great shape. Especially considering the drought around here. Greens were firm but fast and smooth putting on them was fun. I enjoyed the course, you can bomb it around on the front nine without finding much trouble but things get a little more trickier on the back especially the two par threes around the water. Playing partners were great, I have absolutely nothing to complain about!!!! 5 stars.

Get there early and go to the driving range and take advantage of the great practice areas!!!!

Hidden gem

I was absolutely delighted with this course set in the Berkshire mountains. The course is in great condition!! The greens are quick and have a lot of slope in them. The layout is pristine with beautiful scenery on every hole. We played this course twice on our vacation and can’t wait to go back!!

First time at Bath

I enjoyed the course for the most part. Only downside was the greens, everyone seemed to be a different speed and there was 2 types of grass growing on them. Which is weird, but I enjoyed the layout and conditions throughout the rest of the golf course. Beware if your playing the course for the first time, I got lucky and paired with locals. Without there knowledge it's hard to judge your lines off some of the tees with driver.

First time playing this course. It is one of the best kept golf courses I have played this year! The greens were lightning fast and rolled true. Pace of play was decent for a challenging course. Took around 4 hours. Can't wait to play it again.

Pleasantly surprised

The course is in the best condition I have ever seen at any time I have played here. I didn't find any bunkers but looked at them and other reviews are right. You don't want to be in them, big rocks and dirt with no rakes.........good value for the money!

Stuck in nutreal

This course has made strides the last year or two but I was a little disappointed in the conditions. The area needs rain, I understand that but some of the tee boxes here are unacceptable. Almost can't tee it up on a few of them. Greens were decent but this course still needs some work. It was trending in the right direction but I was a little disappointed with the overall condition of the course. Same trouble areas. But for $20 with cart its still a deal.

Used cart

Another ride around the jones course

I took advantage of a 50% off hot deals special so I played 18 with a cart for $33.75 on a beautiful sunday.
I was here about a week ago and I enjoyed this round even more than the last one. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating when I showed up to play as a single. The course is in absolutely great condition. These are my new favorite greens to putt on. They roll decently fast and true. Best greens I have played on with the tradition of Wallingford being right there with these. The Rough is really thick and penalizing. This courses true defense. I have no complaints about it though other than it being hard to find your ball when your in it. So keep a good eye on your tee shots! Pace of play was a usual sunday. A lot of people on the course but I was able to skip a few groups and pair up on the 9th tee with a 3-some. If you get a chance to play here on a good golfnow deal I highly recommend this course!! A little pricey otherwise.....

Excellent condition at the tradition

Booked a tee time for half price through golf now and I was pleasantly surprised. This nice shortish course has an island green that looks very similar to the 17th at sawgrass. The greens are fast and are in nearly perfect condition. The staff was very nice and I really enjoyed my round here.

Great conditions at southington cc

First time playing this course and I was pleasantly surprised! Best greens I have played on this year. The course is in excellent condition. Its a little short coming in at a little under 6000 yards. The greens on the back 9 are very tricky with false fronts and big slopes which is this courses defense for being short. I recommend this course to anyone!!

Just a beginner coure

I have played here a few times, this course is good to work on your irons and that's it......tee boxes are terrible, sloped and like hitting from the rough! The greens are always painfully slow. Unless your a beginner or weekend hacker stay away from this one......I paid $15 for 18 and a cart so you get what you pay for here.......
