Spook Rock Golf Course
Played On 09/23/2017Horrible Experience
Arrived for my 2:42 tee time and was sent out without any mention of the TWO tournaments happening at the course that day. Also, no mention of the absurd overbooking they had done. An hour in and we had completed three holes total. After three hours I gave up after the front nine was completed. A complete and utter waste of a Saturday afternoon.
When I tried to address the issue with the millennial at the check in desk I was told I should have expected a slow pace and that I was wrong to assume I'd be able to play an entire round in five hours.
No acknowledgment that they were wrong to book people and not warn them about the potential slow play. They had my money, they didn't care. Save yours. This place is run terribly. Which is too bad because for a county course it's actually in decent shape overall.

Played On 5/4/2013Well maintained course. Greens in good condition.
Got a tee time through Golf Now for $51. Normal price for out of town players on a Saturday is $99 which is way too much. For a town/public course it's in great shape. Greens are pretty challenging and course is VERY hilly. Every shot you are hitting up or down in elevation. Makes club selection very important. Some holes are very tight, taking driver out of play. Lay out is pretty good. Staff was very friendly. Would play again for sure. But only with a discounted tee time. For $99 I'd much prefer taking the ride out to Wild Turkey for a few extra bucks.
