Have played here a few times before. Course has a wonderful challenging layout. Credit to Peter Dye. It is a shame that it has deteriorated to such a degree. Tee boxes were spotty with no grass. mostly weeds. Fairways were OK but not great. NOW THE GREENS! They were covered with dead black areas and had small clumps of weed on them. Worse than putting on recently aerated greens. Basically the course is neglected. Such a shame. the highlight was the young lady in the pro shop that took out green fees and got us going. She was a delight.

I played this course almost weekly a few years ago. Was a member.. Always enjoyed it. But then it went extremely downhill and I stopped playing there. Probably haven't played at the Shadows for two years until today. Saw that the reviews were improving and thought I'd give it a try so talked my foursome into going. I was very pleased. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens A+. Greens were fast and very challenging. With the exception of a few traps it was in excellent shape. They have rehabbed some of the traps and they are filled with white sand. One disappointment was that the signature waterfall on 18 was not running.
Will definitely start frequenting this course again and will tell my golfing friends to do the same.
