Freeport Country Club
Played On 06/20/2015Fun course with a variety of hole types
The conditions of the course we're well kept. Greens, fairways, tee boxes are taken care of. The driving range and practice green were also great. There are 4-5 target greens on the range.
As this was my first time playing the course, there were a few holes that were a little bit confusing to navigate. But once we made the turn, it seemed like you can really attack the course. There are several scenic parts of the course that makes it unique (especially hitting over water on 3 holes.) I would recommend this course to anyone who loves a great value.
The difficulty of the holes range from a short par 4 where u can reach the green with a pitching wedge then sand wedge to a long downhill par 3 tucked into the woods with a small green. I'd say that this course will challenge any skill of golfer.
My only criticism is that there was no starter at the first hole, or anyone managing the start times. Not really a big deal or deal breaker.
I enjoyed the course and would play here again.

The course has some beautiful views from their high tee boxes. I liked their creativity by having 2 sets of tees for front 9 and back 9. The greens and tee boxes were in great condition. I had been wanting to play this course because the course name continually pops up on golfnow.com for reduced rates, but the course is a decent drive from my home and knowing it's only a 9 hole course, I have often wondered if the course was good or not. I live over 1.5 hrs away so I may not be playing again in some time, but I would recommend the course to anyone whose considering it.
Unfortunately our group played a couple days after a large amount of rain poured on the course, so the course had to close 2 holes because they were submerged under 6" of water. The course had a reduced rate because of the conditions, which was a great value. Although I had prepaid for the greens fees and carts, which on this day carts were prohibited, the staff were really helpful to accommodate us by offering a free bucket of balls and a few other small things to offset the difference in the discounted price versus what I prepaid online. I personally give the service an A rating.
The course was fairly easy to play, with a few challenging shots and blind greens. I love playing on high tee boxes, especially on the 3rd hole (par 3 200+ yds).
The club house includes a medium sized restaurant and a small driving range. The driving range prohibits you from hitting over 150 yards.
Hope this helps.
