SLOW

Myself and my partner were paired up on a Wednesday afternoon with another pair to "make the round seem faster". There was a foursome ahead of us consisting of a course employee who the ranger passed multiple times and didn't ask to speed up play of let our group play through. The round lasted almost 5 hours on one of the shortest courses in the area. There wasn't another group ahead of this foursome for about 4 or 5 holes by the end of the round. Poor on-course management yesterday. The course itself was in good shape and typically Armitage is a fun course to play. The restaurant/bar (Caddie Shack) is always a good time too.

Awful condition

I must preface this review by saying we did only pay $10 to play this course. With that being said, the course was in awful condition. Some holes had a swamp for a fairway and as we tried to play that hole the sprinklers were on. Not only were the sprinklers making the issue worse, but they were also a unique "water hazard" to us as we retrieved our balls and felt like kids running through a sprinkler. Other fairways (roughly 12/18) were hard as a rock! It was like hitting off of pavement. The greens were all half dead and and every lie had you putting over at least some areas of mud. The tee boxes looked as though they hadn't been moved and/or seeded since 1994. Even at $10 per round (thanks to GoldNow) I would say we overpaid. We skipped the last 5 holes due to the conditions.

Fairways are 50% dead, brown grass/dirt

The fairways honestly had me and my golf partner wondering if we were in a swamp, rough, mud, maybe.... The fairway??? Rough on some holes was mowed and piles of clippings lined the rough. Tee boxes were made of sand with no grass to be seen on some holes. Greens on the other hand were soft and in good condition. To the courses credit they did tell us they killed some grass in order to reseed. Overall course conditions were poor, but the layout was fun and the staff was pleasant.
