Worn Out
Course is normally kept up real well, but there are some obvious signs of stress on the fairways. Hard and not much grass on some fairways and within 50 yards of the hole on some holes. Worth the price if you can catch a hot deal, otherwise the value isn’t quite there, but I’d still come back.
Course is in awful shape now
This course was in great shape at the beginning of the season and now it awful. Greens are punched and sanded, hardly any grass on fairways. Not worth the 25 bucks.
worth playing
Course is always in good condition. Greens are firm and fast. Course is fair if you don't always hit it straight. Some shorter holes and some longer holes. Good variety. Sand traps have sand in them! No water on the course to lose balls. A few fairways were a little burned up. Some greens had a few rough patches. Played in 3.5 hours. Always a good time here. Definitely worth playing.
Normally a good course
Normally a good course but The weather has Done a number on this track. The tee boxes are pretty worked over with weeds . The fairways barely have any grass on them. Normally I enjoy playing this course I couldn’t believe they’re charging full price for the shape that it is in. Hoping they can get it back because I enjoy this place.
Nice Shape
Course was in pretty good shape except the bonkers. Did not really have sand in them, more like dirt. Bunker material was not the same for each bunker, even on same hole. Heard they are committing $1.8 million to improvements. Stay tuned for next year.
Tee to Green
This is the 8th different course I played this year and besides the country club ( + $20,000 to join) that my son in law is the golf pro buy far this one was the best. Even the rough was cut at a nice height.
Planning on playing a few more times this year now that I’m a little more familiar with the course.
Fantastic muni course
I have been playing this golf course for almost 40 years now. It went from a general public golf course to an awesome public play golf course. Due to the conditions being so fantastic it does see a lot of play. The fairways look just like country club fairways. Greens were smooth and fast. There are a lot of hackers out there on a Friday Saturday and Sunday so pace of play could be slow. It’s a long golf course, challenging, but worth playing. Afterwords it’s a must to go into the Clubhouse Grille. You can sit outside by the parking lot or you can go to the front of the building and sit on the outside patio. I personally recommend the patio by the parking lot. You get to watch the number one and 10 tee box as well as 18th green.The bar restaurant inside, is very nice with numerous TVs. The bartending staff are out of this world. They are second to none
VERY WELCOMING!
From check in and the Starter, everyone was extremely welcoming, accommodating and helpful. It was an excellent experience and afternoon,
Greens rolling true
I play here a few times each year. Sunday was the first time this year. Impressed with the greens. They rolled true and were quicker than in the past. Many trees have been removed. Overall I wad pleased with the entire course.
Course not ready
Course not ready. Playing same 9 twice .not worth money
Early round
Grass is just starting to grow infor early. the course is completing some much needed course work and updates. bGC could be a great track if the improvements are completed and the greens match the other upgrades
Interesting and fun course with plenty of blind shots and altitude changes.
This was the first time played, so many of the shots had feelings of uncertainty. The location on a hill side has rises and drops leaving one wondering about target lines, yardage, and strategy. However, at elevation the course has many views of the surrounding areas. It's a challenging fun course I would recommend especially if you find a good deal; well worth it.
Good municipal course overall
No surprises and a decent round of golf. Course was in good shape, greens were good. Rough wasn’t too high, just enough to remind you you missed th fairway.
4 stars of Bethlehem
Good course. Traditional, parkland layout. Nothing too tricky.
Old facilities could use an update.
(A playing partner and local said the municipality would be spending $1.7 million on improvements next year.)
For me, not impressive enough to warrant my 1 hour+ drive.
Good to get out
I've played Bethlehem before and liked what I had experienced which is why I came back. The course is fairly maintained and greens are rolling pretty nicely. The starter was very cordial which is a good way to be when it is as hot it was. I wound up catching a foursome just before the turn. Very few of the 4 hit the fairway from the tee or the greens or near them on par 3s. If it wasn't as hot as it was, this might not have been as annoying. And they didn't want me to play through. Guess I could've skipped them but I don't play here often and wanted to see the entire course.
Good Course
They recently had quite a bit of rain but most of the course was in great shape. The greens were pretty fast and rolled true. Definitely will return
