Hidden Gem

First time at this course. A little bit of a drive from PCB but we’ll worth it. A couple of greens needed a little work, but overall a very nice place to play.

Worth the drive

First time playing this course, and it was well worth the drive from Huntsville. The course is well laid out and has a few tricky holes where trees will come in to play if you don’t nail your tee shot. My only issue was there was a fivesome walking in front of us and they were playing from the black tees, & the way they were hacking they would’ve been better suited playing Putt Putt somewhere. These guys held up play for everyone and there was no Marshall to help move things along. Overall, a very nice course.

Wonderful!

Our fist time at this course. A little over an hour drive from Huntsville and it was worth it! The course and facilities were clean, and the staff was very friendly. The course if forgiving which was a good thing because it was pretty breezy the day we played. The greens and fairways were nicely kept, but with a little more rain, they would be perfect. The only reason they do not get 5 stars is that the course lies in a "dry" county and they do not sell beer. I will be back regardless. Keep up the good work!

Rain, but still had a blast!

Always liked this course. It is in much better condition that it was last year. The fairways were in great shape. There were a few rough spots on some greens, but smart pin placement made them not much of an issue. The beer-cart girl was out today which was nice. Rain came in and we missed the 18th hole, but still had a wonderful round, and the GolfNow discounts will keep us coming back. Oh! My wife wanted me to mention that a restroom, or even a porta-potty somewhere on the back nine is desperately needed.

Always a pleasure.

The wife wanted to play golf on Mothers Day, so I booked The Plantation Course. I still believe this is the best kept golf secret in the area. We literally had the entire course to ourselves, and the course was in wonderful shape. Kudos to the grounds keeping staff.
If you are looking for a great relaxing round of golf without being pushed, or having to wait at every tee-box, then The Plantation Course is for you!

Flood Damage

First time my wife and I played this course. We saved a lot of money using 'GolfNow', good thing too because the recent heavy rains flooded the streams that snake through the course and deposited a lot of dirt/mud in the fairways that turned in to concrete. This made for impossible approach shots. I hope the course recovers from the damage because I would like to play it again.
It would be nice to have a couple more restrooms strategically placed on the course as well. Also, the cart paths need some work. Take it slow. Overall, a fun course to play, and the staff was wonderful. We'll be back.

Loved it!

First time for this course, but it won't be the last. Had a great day of golf. If you can find it, it's a terrific course. Not too easy but yet not too difficult. Fast greens and very nice fairways. My only gripe was that the beer was expired by 4 months and they had no coolers.

It was a pleasure

I've played this course a few times, and it's always been a pleasure to play here. The course was in great shape and the greens were fast. The thing I like most about this course is that it is in the middle of nowhere! No highway or traffic noise. very peaceful and relaxing. The few times I have been here, there were very few other golfers. No waiting and no one pushing. We just took our time and had a great round of golf.

Very nice!

We have played this course several times over the last two years. The new ownership has done an outstanding job in improving conditions on the course, and it is in great shape compared to the first time we played it. Also, with 'GolfNow' you just cannot beat the rates.

Beautiful course

I showed up at the course on Saturday afternoon, the weather was beautiful and I was ready to tee off, but they could not find my reservation. After some checking, they found that I had (accidently) booked my round for Sunday, not Saturday. I was devastated. The staff at Goose Pond (Lake Course) could not have been more helpful. I explained that I had driven 60 miles to play this course for the first time. They spoke with a 'Golf Now' rep (Jack) and explained what had happened. Jack was kind enough to credit my account back, and the Goose Pond staff permitted us to go ahead and play! They also gave us the "twilight rate". Many thanks to Goose Pond staff and Jack at Golf Now for turning a potentially bad day into a great one. Oh by the way, the course was fantastic!! I will be back.

Had a great time.

My first time on this course & had a great round. Since this was my first time here, I was unfamiliar with the layout and the hazards and ended up losing a sleeve of new balls. Better hole diagrams on the score cards would be nice. Make sure you bring plenty of cash as the drinks are a little pricy. Loved the course though and I will be back.

Wonderful greens!

Spent a great Saturday afternoon on this course. Course conditions were not bad considering the lack of rain lately. The greens were fantastic and true. Only problem I had were the leaves on the fairways. Lost a couple of balls after I hit them right down the middle. I'll be back.

Nice course.

First time playing here. I thought it was a fun course with a few tricky holes. Greens were in good shape and very fast. Would've been a perfect round if it weren't for the group of 6 in front of us. That being said, they finally did skip a par 3 hole so as to resume a normal pace for those groups behind them.
Good course. I will be back.

Not bad for a municipal course

The greens were excellent. (very fast) The Tee boxes and fairways were extremely hard. I broke several tees just trying to get them in the ground. I didn't mind the fairways being so hard cuz it added another 75 yds. to my tee-shots!
Oh, and they could not sell beer at the clubhouse "temporarily". Not sure what that was all about.

North Alabama's best kept secret. Shhhhhhhhh.

I was hesitant about playing this course as it's over an hours drive from my house. After seeing and playing 'The General' I found it was well worth the drive, Played on a beautiful Saturday afternoon, and there was no one in front of us and nobody pushing. A wonderful leisurely round of golf. I will be back!
