Excellent course

I played this course in 2016 and had some issues about the conditions of the course. When I played this time, all my concerns had been wiped away! The course is in excellent condition. The layout and pace of play were great. Prices are good also. I would recommend this course and will be playing here more frequently.

Goodpark

The course doesn't drain well so there are many spots that have standing water in the fairways and bunkers.

Pace of play was awful, 5.25 hrs to play 18 .. The greens were freshly aerated and some had granular fertilizer on them.. So the putting was very difficult to say the least.

Nice public course layout

Goodpark is a public course in a "neighborhood" setting. Because of this, there are several holes that dogleg. It is a fairly long course (with a couple of short holes mixed in). There aren't any water hazards to contend with, but there are sand traps on almost every hole and the tree lined fairways provide some challenge to make good shots to stay out of trouble. The putting greens are in excellent shape(but were rolling a little slow..probably due to fall weather conditions) The grounds crew was working hard to maintain the excellent course conditions! Play it!

True test

The Park doesn't let up. Good conditions, greens still a little sandy, and shaggy, from a later aerification. Putts were not visibly bumpy, but not breaking as much as normal.

If you like true greens that roll without bounce then this is the place for you. Good park is a nice place. Very well maintained and long. Its different every time i play there. Staff are great. Pace was standard. I am most impressed with the condition of greens for this time of year. Fast and true great.
