Go somewhere else

Course conditions were pretty bad. On a lot of holes you could not distinguish the fairways from the rough. Most greens were burnt out with debris all over them. Most putts were bumpy. The weather had been nice all week but they decided to mow on a rainy Saturday morning. The course is way overpriced for the condition it is in. It is, at best, a $20 round. You'd be wise to go elsewhere..

Worst course in central pa

Horrible staff. They do not want to work their full shift so they will kick you off early. Not worth the money.

Enjoying spring golf

Great scenery and great spring golf. Well informed from the clubhouse, cart path only, as the area had seen rain. Excellent fairways and greens. True putts were surprisingly fast. Easy to get to from I-81.

Decent practice course

It's a good course to get out and swing, better than a par 3 course, but not somewhere I look forward to playing. I had a last minute idea to go play the night before I did, and couldn't pass up the $15.99 hot deal price. You can't beat that price no matter what condition the course is in. It's a relatively short course (except for hole #14 haha) and the greens will challenge anyone. However, the fairways are the same as the rough at most other courses, very shaggy. So not much roll, and the ball will sit down, tough to find even in the fairway half the time. In the 1st cut rough, you are severely punished, tough to find the ball many times. I utilize Sportsmans as a warm up round foelr the season just to get out and swing.

Rude Staff

This course let me book a 1:20 tee time for 18 holes on 2/10. I didn't think my twosome would have any problems finishing 18 holes until I got to the course and saw the message on their chalkboard saying "all golfers off the course by 4:45." I thought this message was old given that it's currently getting dark around 6 pm. I was wrong. We got to the 16th tee around 4:30 and had a ranger drive by and tell us that was our last hole, even though there was at least an hour of daylight left. That was bad enough. We were hitting our shots around the 16th green when a different ranger came by and yelled at us for still playing. This guy was yelling at me for chipping onto the green and being incredibly rude. I tried to get his attention to ask if we'd get a partial refund since we paid for 18 holes but he just ignored me and drove off. I used to play here every week in a league with my dad and my uncle. My uncle passed away unexpectedly a few years ago so I like playing Sportsmans to remember him. That said, I don't think I'll play here again after the way I was treated. This course is usually in awful shape. It's always a soggy mess, even in the middle of a dry spell, pock marked with

divots, and covered in goose poop. You'd think they'd treat the people playing it nicely given that but you would be wrong. There are better options locally that are more well maintained and similar in price. I recommend you look elsewhere.

course nice, weather perfect, but slow play

Good experience that would have been better, if the group of older gentlemen in front of us hadn't been so slow. Weather perfect, course nice. We had to have the carts back by 4:30 and it was a struggle to finish round due to slow play in front of us.

Amazing value for money

Brilliant experience and I will definitely be back when I am next in the Harrisburg area. Arrived about 20 mins before my tee time to learn there was a frost delay and two 4-balls in front of me. Without a single issue they declared I could get out in front of the two groups, and I played my round in blissful solitude in gorgeous surroundings. Good course layout for a mid to high handicapper, with gettable par 3s and a few dogleg holes that required a strategic tee shot, or a more aggressive 2nd shot over water. The 610 yard par 5 (off the whites!) is a good challenge to say the least. Greens were pretty slow due to the melting frost, but some of the downhill putts were still slippery. Staff were very pleasant, and I experienced none of the grumbles in the pro shop often reserved for people who book online. All in all a great morning’s golf, and 18 holes and a cart for $20 is impossible to beat these days.

Good time

I had a hard time finding a parking spot when I arrived. Was told there was a senior outing in the morning. Fortunately they were finishing up their round when I arrived. We went off the first tee and had no slow play in front of us, so it was a good paced round. We were pleased and the weather was great. We will go again.
