Nice layout

Don’t let the par 70 rating fool you, the course layout is challenging. The course was in good condition.

Unfair to Judge

I played the day after heavy rains so the course was sloppy and the greens inconsistent. It did not help that they closed the front nine and we had to play the more treacherous back nine twice I would like to return under better course conditions to play both nines. Finally, we got stuck behind a pathetically slow twosome. The absence of a player assistant/ranger out on the course all contributed to a 4 1/2 round as a twosome, completely unacceptable.

I went to the course and it was closed and it said to contact golf now for a refund. I would like a refund.

Front 9 is closed

Didn’t know it and golf now said nothing about it but the front 9 on this course odd closed for repair until further notice. Don’t play here right now. Wait until it reopens

Tough test

Greens were tiny and still recovering from punching. Played back nine twice as noted in other reviews but would have been nice to know up front. Tight tree lined fairway make it fun if you can hit it straight, I would play it again for sure once the front reopens

Only nine holes open

I was not informed of the nine hole closure, or the fact the course was freshly punched. None of this was available online. I was looking for an 18 hole course and this one did not meet my needs. Full communication would’ve been much advised.

Only back 9 open!

I typically love fairway hills, but they’re doing ‘maintenance’ on some part of the front 9 and have the whole front 9 closed. They didn’t tell me this before booking and paying and told me to just play the back 9 twice. I would have booked somewhere else if I had known.

Wish they would have told me

Sure would have liked to know that all the greens were being aerated before I booked my round…
