Cold and windy
Played back nine first. Wo!!! Wind was kicking. Tough day. Greens were mowed and the color a dark emerald green. Very nice putting and looks. Front was still wet and CPO. Still dont know what club to use off the tee on #7. Overall nice day. Great value....
Different.....
Overall after 10 inches of rain in 2 days. Just to play was good. Front was cpo..pretty wet but playable. Saw a recent review with golfers doing what ever they want, happened this day too. A fivesome not complying to the rules ridind all over. Pink shirt kid you know who you are. Saw donot tracks on #9 fairway. No ranger so it seems locals do what they want. The back was open and dry but again was behind 5 carts with 7 people. Little kids included. Could be really nice if they had the means to see the rules of golf were inforced. State Park course.....is what it is. Course was in good shape..surprised. Koodos to greens keepers having to go behind people that don't respect your course or the rules of golf.
Run amock
This course allows 5 golfers in a group, and 6 golfers in a group (at least the day I was there they did). Also, once you pay your greens fee you can start on the first hole or you can start on the 10th, who cares. Imagine being the first group off on 1 then make the turn only to find yourself having to wait in line to tee off on 10. This isn't how it's done. You can reserve a tee time if you wish, but don't waste your time....there's no such thing here.
Great course
Got a great deal on 2 rounds of play only to show up and discover lower prices because the greens had been aerated. We played at the lower price on Friday and again during our scheduled tee time. Great course. Lots of fun!
Decent
Two courses in one, traditional front nine, links type back nine. Not very difficult to play.
Excellent
Course in great condition today, nice plush green fairways and greens as well after getting aeriated last week! By far better than other courses around!
Great course
Course was in great shape! Had a great staff new carts good pro shop. We will return. !
Brazell Creek
Awesome course! Needs a pond on the back 9. Whenever it’s wet, it’s super wet on the front 9. The differences between the front 9 with the narrow fairways and the pine trees and the wide open play on the back 9 makes it feel like two completely different courses.
Pitiful
This is my 2nd time driving over 40 miles one way just to find out the back 9, the links part was closed. Play was incredibly slow and then to make it worse, on the 2nd time on front 9 at least 70 or 80 teenagers just started cutting in front of everyone on the course and causing even more slow play. We finally just quit. We were able to get raincheck because of the issues for 9 holes but not sure I'll even go back.
Course in good shape
Greens are in excellent shape. Well mowed and fitted. Fairway grass is dormant, so lies can be a little thin and on the dirt. It’s winter conditions but overall, course is in great shape and a good value. Only problem is the distance to drive to get there. It took us close to 90 minutes each way. Worth it for a hot deal but not for full rates.
Great course, great value
Greens were just aerated so they were a little bumpy but overall, in good shape. Tee boxes, fairways, are in great shape. Very fun course to play. Front 9 is tight and requires some shot shaping. Back 9 looks like you are on an entirely different course. Wide open, so grab your driver and let it rip.
Two totally different courses.
Loved the back longer and more opened. Two totally different 9s. I like to grip it and rip it. I am not a shot maker. Which is why I would prefer the back over the front. You could play the front nice twice and the back nine twice . Play two totally different 18 hole courses on the same track. Haven't seen to many like this that vary this drastically. I enjoyed it. Would probably enjoy the front more if I knew the lay out. Would be nice if they offered a yardage book or some kind of map for the holes. Even on the back it could get a little strange on direction to the next hole.
You get what you pay for...
Just like it says...$25.00 will get you a person behind the counter that could care less if you are there or not. Never bothered to put out hohotdogs or offer to put some out. Greens are horrible... good luck on seeing the hole layout on the back nine. Won't be back.
