Poor staff and course drainage

Multiple staff members were fairly rude and the course had pretty poor drainage and held a lot of water…taking in to effect of the recent rain. Would not recommend for the price.

Average at best

Not the best shape/maintenance during winter times. Summer time, they do a good job for the price. But probably won’t play it again during the winter. You can find courses that maintain it better and for the same price. Good layout though and requires you to play different kind of shots. Practice facility is decent for the Charlotte area. Let’s you hit off grass but still expensive for the amount of range balls they give you. There are other places that give more for the same price

Not bad at all

First time playing here. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We were there on a soggy day but the course seemed to drain well and it was 90 degree rule. I'd like to come back in the spring or summer when it's dry. Overall I would play here again and my partner shot a 74 so he thought the course was absolutely perfect. 😀

Course beat up

This course was beat up the golf cart paths had so many holes and bumps I need to go to the doctor to to get put back together. Corse layout was bad with needing to drive in the line of fire from on coming players. The was a lot of blind shots not knowing if there was anyone in hitting range. I can say that the course was challenging.

A True Renaissance

Hadn't been to HLJ since it was renamed and it was an absolute pleasure. Very accommodating staff (I accidentally booked a pair but we actually had a foursome) and they took care of us. Great course layout. Fairly open and easy on the front and then challenging on the back. Will definitely be back.

Needs Work

The car paths are in dangerous need of repair. No hot food ( dogs, hamburgers, etc) available at the closed down grill - only canned sodas and candies.

However - the greens and fairways were in decent shape - a bit Shirley long but still fun.

Course needs a rather large infusion of money to get back in shape. Disappointed - challenging layout…

Better than past

Course was extremely wet and Cary path only which makes for a ton of walking. Cart paths are in very bad shape all over the course. Greens a little slow, tee boxes had high grass. Greens held, but again it was very wet. But overall the course was much better than when I have played in past. This is not my favorite course but the price was right for a Tuesday round of golf.

I’m Back!

This course like all the courses in Charlotte has done a great job renovating the course. But come on man get that green speed up. It felt like putting in your backyard.
