ArrowHead Review

I have played this course a few time before but could not pass up the deal on GolfNow. Despite the hot weather and lack of rain this summer the course was in fairly good shape. The highlight of the golf course is holes 16 and 17 which are very challenging. If you can drive the ball far this is your course for you. The staff was great and very helpful.

Great layout and great value

This was my first trip back to Arrowhead in some time. Previously it was strictly a cart path only course but the policy has changed thankfully. The fairways were a bit burned out but the greens although a bit spongy rolled pretty true and consistent. This was probably due o the recent extreme heat we've had. The sand traps are a bit scarce of sand so try to avoid them. Other than that it's a great layout, challenging and fun. I'm sure the greens will be trimmed down a bit making them a little tougher and quicker and the fairways will grow back in once the weather permits the course to manicure properly. Try it if you're in the neighborhood.

Arrowhead

Course was in poor condition, difficult to tell the fairways from the rough. Lots and lots of weeds in the fairways. No water on the course...there were vending machines on the turn, but on a 90 degree day, that was not sufficient. Would not recommend and will not play again. There are much nicer courses in the general vicinity that are close to the same price.

Needs a Spring awakening.

I have played this course in the past and was eager to play it again. The greens are large in size but yesterday they were VERY VERY SLOW. I don't think they were touched at all this year - certainly never mowed. The course does have a nice layout with some very interesting holes.

Dissappointing

Played here a lot in my younger years but stopped going because fairways were never mowed short. Went back after 20 years and very excited to revisit. The greens were terrible for putting. Don't think they were mowed this season and there was patches of long grass. Greens were the slowest I've played on in years and I play 30+ rounds a year. I know it's early but I have been playing weekly since Jan. with the exception of when ground was covered in snow and these were the worst greens I've played on. Maybe in late spring and summer the greens will be good. However, we won't be hurrying back. There are many other courses in better shape.

Old Fashioned course

The clubhouse also serves as a diner. If you enjoy old fashioned this is the place. The course begins with 2 par fives and the challenges just start there. Many trees and a 250 yard par3.

Best beginners bang for the buck!

I only started playing golf about 3 to 4 years ago, after graduating college. In that time I've seen my game improve ten folds, and in the exact opposite direction of the quality of my game I've seen Arrowhead Golf course go.

Arrowhead is a decent challenge for anyone new to the game, with some trickery late on the course in the 16th and 17th holes. Challenging you to not only be straight, but "long enough." Outside of that this is a pretty easy open course that has seen better days in my time playing.

The fairways have been dry and patchy, while the greens always seem way too soft for the weather conditions of this past season.

The clubhouse has seen better days, and really from the outside to the inside is certainly outdated. It all really looks thrown together. Of the 3 times I played this course this past season, not once was the "snack shack" at the turn opened and operational. 2 out of the 3 times was on a prime time Saturday morning/mid-afternoon. Limiting your selections to just vending machine sodas/sports drinks, and potato chips. I would definitely recommend coming prepared with enough to drink (adult or otherwise) before teeing off on the first tee!

That all said, the course is still a great cheap(er) value compared to some other courses in the area, and can result in a lot of fun if you're out playing with a group of novelist golfers (like myself).

On top of that Arrowhead also is one of the few courses around that offer "Night Golf," or "Glow Ball" scramble tournaments. Which in it's own right are not only cheap, but a TON of fun to play in. And really give the game of golf a fresh, new, extremely fun perspective! That I cannot recommend enough.

Not worth it

If you have played golf for more than a year or two and can break a hondo then you should have no interest in this course. The clubhouse smells like a mixture of moldy basement and dirty diapers.the lady behind the counter was obviously not interested in me or my business. Geese and their droppings are everywhere. Sand traps that had no sand but held water when it hasn't rained in weeks. The 1st hole is a par five. The second hole is also a par five. There are way to many "trick" holes like the 250 yard par 3. Number 16 and 17 are not true tests of golf. Spend your money elsewhere. Don't be fooled by any positive reviews on golf now like I was.

Very Nice Course

Finally had a beautiful day with low humidity. Course is in very good condition and the greens are large and well maintained. Most holes are straight and many are on hills making for interesting shots. 16 and 17 are quite difficult do to the layout - up some really nasty hills. For the price, this is a very nice course to play and I will play it again.

Decent Track

Played here on a hot deal. There was a lot of rain the area so we were told when we got there that we would have to walk. The day was hot so we only walked 9. Course was in decent shape for the amount rain. I would play here again and would recommend to someone looking for a decent challenge.
