I've played both courses here a bunch of times. Reynolds course today. Got a great GolfNow deal. If you can get on for a discount. It's worth it everytime.

The problem with this course is the layout mixed with the care the club's #2 course gets. The Reynolds course is hilly, tight, and the rough is not healthy enough to do it's job. 5 or 6 very frustrating holes. Great drives bounce down hard fairways, though very short first cuts of rough, and then quickly blast through the dirt that once was the second cut. Great drive is now in the woods.

It's a shame b/c the layout is cool! It just needs attention and with the Championship course as great as it is, I don't expect Tanglewood to pump a bunch of money on the 2nd 18 anytime soon.

If you get a chance to play it cheap, do it! just hit 4irons & 3woods most of the day, hit your putts hard, and enjoy your cold beer. You'll have a good time.

This course probably deserves a higher rating & when I play it again I hope to give it one. Today was so slow and the staff did nothing. Actually they made it happen. No tee times on this day. The guy behind the counter told me it was first come first serve. This is a new method of starting to me and let me tell you, I do not recommend it. By hole 3 we were backed up 2 or 3 groups. Not only does it make play a little irritating, it is so hard on the course. Due to the amount of play she was seeing, the poor girl was beat up. Fairways marked with tire marks & divots. Soft greens abused by wedges in & their scars abondoned by its aggressor.
A real shame because I am sure this Dye layout is a lot of fun and because of that fact alone, I will be back next week to try it again.

Enjoyed this course like I always do. It's unfortunate that people do not take care of the pitch marks on these very soft greens. When you get a good look, they roll very true (and slow).
Short course, narrow at times but mostly wide open. You can play this course a bunch of different ways which is fun. It is also a course an average golfer can score on. Fun to go out and shoot a lower number.

Compact course on the island that is a lot of fun. Placement golf forces you to shoot at targets. Be prepared.
Beverage staff was amazing. Hats off to Grace for creating a drink on the fly. I order it on the regular now.
Hope to be back.

Greens were punched a few weeks ago it looks like. They are rolling okay but there are still some unreliable spots.
Fairways & tee boxes in great shape. Rough and outer areas are not well maintained & could use work. There are times were hitting through the rough into the deeper cut was better bc the deeper cut was out of shape and gave you decent position.
Love the new layout though. removal of some of those bunkers definitely speeds up play. 2 of us played uninterrupted in just under 3 hours. Booked the time on GolfNow on a hot deal time with a coupon. If you can make that happen, do it. We both played for like $30 each.
We will be back

If you get the privilege of being invited to play this jewel, congratulations.
This place is 5 star top to bottom. It has been hot something terrible & the staff out there has this course in tip top. This means keeping the course wet and there are spots that were soaked causing tee balls to plug. Was not expecting that considering the lack of rain. Greens rolling great all things considered.
Olivia, the mobile bartender, is amazing. She was around every few holes to keep us hydrated in every way.
Really a treat to be able to get out there.

Course is in good shape. Can't think of a spotty green. Consist roll. There was a lightning delay and a kids tournament in front of us and things still ran pretty smooth.

This course is one of the best in the area. Always recommend it.
However, it's members and guests are not taking care of the greens. Ball marks are left unattended to EVERYWHERE. I bet I fixed 4 per hole and it hardly put a dent in the problem.
These greens roll well and they need to be taken care of by the people who play it.
Still a great course. Hope no permanent damage comes to the greens.

This is a good layout and I always enjoy coming out here. They keep the fairways and green in good condition & there are a handful of really good golf holes. Will be back soon.

If you want to practice some odd numbers and shots, go and play Heather Hills. It is a par 60 course with 6 par 4's and 12 par 3's and it is in Terrible Shape. Absolutely Terrible.
There is no reason to bash the condition any more than that.
Aside from the 1/2 star condition, this course does offer a good time. You will hit shots that you need to practice anyway. All 6 par 4's are drive-able @ 200-280yds. Hit up hill sub 100yd shots into concrete greens. Stick approach shots 2 feet from the pin, then laugh with your buddies as it bounces off the back of the green.
It's a fun course. Just don't go out there expecting anything.
If I won the lottery, this one would be a fun one to pump a load of cash into and make it a really cool track.

Oak Valley is in the best shape of the Advance courses. I've played them all recently & OV was best all around. Greens roll nice & look nice. Great looking course. Will be back soon.

Course was in good shape. Fairways were pretty much perfect but greens honestly could use work. They roll fine, but do not look great.
Overall great course.

This course is in great condition & the staff is proud of it. That makes a difference when you are checking into a course for the first time.
We had 4 in our group @ 9-25 range handicap & it is all you want from the white tees. We were looking for a challenge & it was perfect. We teed off @ 8:30 & greens sped up with the day to a great speed.
@ $59 on a Saturday I would expect a touch more, however given the CoronaSeason we are in right now it is understandable that amenities are not there. Pro shop is basically bare. One guy in my group was ready to spend $30-$60 on a belt but there was not one for sale. Bar at the turn is open, but beware. We went in for a 12 pack @ the turn. The server was present, packed two 6packs into bags w.ice, and then informed us that our MilllerLight purchase would total $36.00 before tip. Next time I'll smuggle a cooler Sheesh.
All in all a great course. Would recommend on occasion when you are feeling spunky.
