Well pleased with first visit

First time here. We were a twosome and the starter was kind to move us up ahead of a group of 12, allowing us to finish 18 in under 4 hours (did have a fair amount of wait time on backside, but no complaint). Course in very nice shape, fast greens, traps well groomed, excellent yardage markings. Will definitely play again.

good value, nice layout

Course was in good condition but had a few thin spots on greens. Putting speed can be tricky: helps to read the grain direction.

Nice round

Always enjoy playing here. Impressed with condition this early in the season. A little soggy in spots but normal for mid-May; greens were very nice but still putting a little slower than normal.
Course doing a nice job of marking to remind players to observe
90 deg. rule and keeping carts out of the soft spots.

Hard to beat

Beautiful layout. Fast and true greens. Enough sand, water, trees, and waste bunkers to demand accurate tee shots. Will play again.

Challenge is on the greens

This course has generous fairways on most holes. Tee shot placement is important to scoring on the dogleg holes. Greens are very firm, will hold a full short iron with a lot of spin but short chips will not grab due to the hard surfaces. Greens put OK, average to fast speed and roll true.

Good Value, Will play again

Course in excellent condition. Challenging with several water hazards. Course knowledge or a good GPS will save a stroke or two. Greens putted nicely, average speed. Staff was friendly & courteous. Could not get water to take out anywhere in the clubhouse after 2 p.m. when the bar closed. Water jugs on one hole on each nine but would be nice to have more convenient water service on a hot day.

Good course for all

This is a nice layout which is good for all handicap levels.
Fairways are wide, greens are large, fast, and well contoured.
Rough is very inconsistent, ranging from a few inches of grass to bare dirt.

Challenging layout; good value.

Heron Creek is a excellent layout, very challenging but fair. Fairly generous landing areas for tee shots, but approach shots must be accurate to hold firm, contoured greens.
Putts run very quick, and reads can be tricky. Stray shots will easily find water, sand, or unplayable lies.

Never disappointed

Have played here many times and am always pleased with the layout, conditions, and staff. This course is challenging but fair.
Multiple (5) tee positions cater to golfers of all levels. Greens are fast and normally very true, but verticut lines this times made them a bit bumpier.

Conditioning not up to normal

I have played this course six times over the last 4 yrs. Enjoy the layout but right now the course is not in the best of shape,
apparently from lack of rain.

Interesting layout

Course has many interesting holes.....course knowledge is definitely worth a few strokes here. Tees & fairways were a bit rough in spots; greens were very nice, putted true and fast. Lots of water but most fairways are quite wide. Straight hitters can score here.
