Brown's Run Country Club

We walked off after 14 holes on a Sunday. Not dramatically. Not in protest. Just quietly, rationally, because we were tracking a 5½-hour round and had better things to do with our lives.

The Good News: The greens were excellent. Smooth, true, well-maintained. Whoever is in charge of the greens crew deserves a raise — and apparently got one, because the budget clearly ran out before it reached the fairways.

The Rough: Overgrown and uncut. No excuses — it hadn’t rained in weeks. This is a maintenance choice, not a weather story.

The Pins: Set as if the course was hosting a US Open qualifier. Tucked, slopes, no mercy. On a wide-open Sunday with zero pace of play management, this was bold. Not good bold. Just bold.

The Marshal: Showed up on hole 11. Five groups were already stacked on number 10. We’ll let that speak for itself.

The Carts: Slow. Genuinely, impressively slow. We’re not sure they were faster than walking. We didn’t get to test the theory because we left.

Number 9: Once the original 18th hole. A masterpiece of a closing hole. Someone added a water feature. We have questions. No one has answers.

The Atmosphere: A former country club that has fully embraced a no-rules philosophy. The vibe was less Sunday round of golf and more unsupervised recess. A good time for some. Not for those of us who came to play golf.

The Rain Checks: We left with 9-hole rain checks. They’re on the counter. We’re thinking about it.

Bottom Line: Strong greens, everything else needs work — including the decision-making. Premium price, mid experience. Use those rain checks at your own risk.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Strict 90 degree into fairways definitely makes the course a pleasure to play, I just wish it was closer to me

Slow greens and uncut fairways. Weird for a Sunday. Fairways and greens were lush and nice however, the rough was concrete and beat up. Odd considering they get unlimited water from the local river. Not a $60 course by any stretch, maybe $40-45.

Cart GPS was horrible, it kept showing return to cart path (eco area)

Course conditions were not what you’d expect for a $72 greens fee.

Tee boxes were badly damaged and numerous dead areas in the fairways

The course is not in bad shape. Everything is extremely dry. The greens were in good shape. Tea boxes were at least cut along with the fairways, but the lack of no rangers or to keep up pace of play ridiculous five hour and 20 minute round of golf is absolutely ridiculous

Reserved through Golfnow and was asked to pay an inflated price at check in. When asked about the difference I was told that they were using "dynamic pricing".

Round was pleasant and course was in ok condition. Not sure it was worth the $65 price point or the $72 with the up charge.

The course conditions were great. Soft fairways and soft greens. The course is challenging hitting from the tips or from the old man tees. Grass better than most courses in the area and on GolfNow after the heat and humidity this summer. During the weekdays, there are only a few golfers until the leagues start. If you play weekdays, get started by 1pm. I recommend you don't play this fun course, because we enjoy having no groups in front of us and no groups behind us.

For $62.50 for 18 holes this was at best a waste of $40.00. Not to mention ton some in my group were charged $72 for 18 holes, they do not offer a military discount definitely not friendly. The course is a sub average condition at best. I could have paid $20 less to play at course twice as nice. Save your money and play Jamaica run for far less. They are essentially the same courses.

Not worth the morning tee time money of 70$. Course used to be half decent, recently though it is in worse condition Iv seen in a while. Keep that in mind.

One of our favorites. Fast play, challenging, reasonable
