The Challenge course
Great course layout. Plenty of challenge without having any par 5 holes. Peaceful area and beautiful too. We will play there again.
Wonderful
Troon taking over last year has been the best thing that has happened to Eagle Crest. The Challenge Course is an outstanding shape, best i have ever seen it.
The greens are running FAST! Smooth/fast greens with some fun/challenging pin placements make this course an awesome round.
Great staff and location!
Much better!
The Challenge Course has made a come back! Course in great shape, so green and lush.
An obvious effort has been made to improve the course conditions. Tee boxes are better, fairways nice, and lots of rocks have been removed from traps.
The greens are probably rolling only about 9, and slower than expected....but majority of greens are smooth and true. Thank you to matainance crew, kudos!
Disapointing
I really wish I could write a good review...however The Challenge Course has unfortunately gone down. They seem to be living off their old reputation as a top resort.
Staff always great and the layout and fun factor still there. Course conditions are shockingly poor for May (and what you pay for). Majority of bunkers filled w/ rocks, and some have grass growing out of them. Most frustrating was the really slow greens, and there has been no aeration this spring. Slow is ok (i guess), but they were thick, bare, and had a ton of ball marks. No green was the same speed. Pace of play terrible, and it wasn't packed w/ 4-somes.
Eagle Crest just need to step up their game to bring all the courses back to the glory days.
Challenge Course
Played the blues (4175/61.5/112) as my 2nd round of the day in very windy conditions, 50 degrees & partly cloudy. Very nice executive course, par 63 with 9 medium to short par 4's and 9 par 3's. Interesting layout, definitely one of the better executive courses I have ever played. There were mounds and little valleys that made things interesting, both around the fairways and greens. Many holes had elevation changes, that coupled with playing @ altitude and the strong swirling winds made club selection a sheer guess most of the round. The greens were quick & firm, very few ball marks and putted well. Both the fairways and rough were very lush. The sand traps were decent, but not as well maintained as the sister Ridge course that I played this A.M. The customer service in the pro shop was excellent. If you were in the area and wanted a fun little course, I would recommend this one.
Relaxing fun course to play with your spouse
Played the back tees as it is short. Played with our wives. They had fun and so did we. Pretty area and the deer are interesting to watch.
Loved the format of this course. Playing par 3 and par 4s alternating was great fun.
Very nice course. Quite challenging holes and playing only par 3 and 4s great practice for short game. Loved the hills and beauty of the course.
Fun for any skill level
A nice short (par 63) that has lots of bunkers and tricky greens, somewhat challenging from the back tees!
