AVOID

Course was poorly maintained. Sand traps were water traps, cart path only, fairways had cut grass all over. Greens were good. To be fair, we have had a good amount of rain lately. Staff treated me like it was an inconvenience to check in. No marshalls anywhere to be found. I won't go back

Nice track, but

Layout is nice. Not long (>6100) from the tips.
Played Players than Tournament courses. Completely different experience. Well maintained, fast greens, fair rough on Players.
Tournament was shaggy fairways, slow greens, and rough where you had to step on the ball to find it. At least 5" deep. Incredible. But I recommend for the Golfnow price. I'll give them a chance at redemption at some point.

Got out at 615

Early round. Staff had dew sweepers ready to go.
Threesome in front of us were slow. Turns out they were waiting on a 4th. Got slower with him. No ranger to get them moving. Passed them at 10, hour 20 min back nine, 2+ hour front. Course was in good condition despite 4 days of mist and drizzle. Greens were fast and true. Will be back

Excellent course

Debated on courses to play. Glad i chose here. Course was in great shape. Pacd was very good. Greens were the best I have played since Oakland Hills in Michigan back in '12. Except for being reprimanded for teeing off on time ( the other two people we were supposed to be paired with were late), it was good day. Elevation changes, playability, layout. All excellent. Play this course uf you are near it.

As expected

I have wanted to play this course. I was not disappointed one bit. Cancellations caused a bit of turmoil on the first tee, but after that I loved it. Great track! Tee box, fairway and greens outstanding. Rangers doing their job. Will be back here.

Good track

Getting here and checking in were as smooth as always. Very friendly staff. It got a bit shaky after that. Cancellations caused the starter to mix and match to get foursomes. Ok. I ended up being odd man out. Went to the north course by myself. I'm ok with golfing alone, makes for a fast round. First hole there is someone on the green sweeping fresh dressing of sand. He won't stop for me to play up. Ok. Second hole, my ball is on the green and the same guy spreads sand on my ball. Really? Third hole the sprinklers come on. After that beginning it was quite smooth and I finished my round in 2:40. I've been here many times, so I will give this a pass for being a holiday. Not the norm here.

This track never disappoints. Great layout, great people, good value. The pace was slower (a 5 hr round). But the overall conditions were good. Would recommend, and will play again.

Big Run

This course is a challenge for the weekly golfer. Lots of trouble waits . Rough not penal. Bunkers need sand. Fairways a little long. Greens big but very undulating. 5 hrs for Sunday aft round. Always worth the trip though.

Reliable

Old Oak is an old traditional track. Well maintained, staff knows it's job and does it well. Bunkers need some sand, and golfers need to rake them and fix ball marks on greens. Pace was a bit slow but not painfully. Well worth a visit.

Soggy, But Playable

The course was a bit wet (good Drainage) after a soaking 1+ hr delay. Cart path only slowed things up. But very pleased with how it all shook out. Great staff and food, well priced. Def. recommend
