IRRITATING GOLF

Except for the fact that you'll be able to hit the ball anywhere and still have a shot to your green, it will probably be the most irritating round of golf you'll ever play. Balls will bounce off & roll across greens, after they've rolled over the hardpan to reach the green. Then, the cart operation will be infuriating! Controlled by the GPS system, they are slowed down when you are driving them ON THE CART PATH! & that is only an indication of the irritation the carts will cause if you get off the cart path. Someone with no knowledge of golf wrote software thinking they are going to control the cart on the course. I have heard that players have turned off the GPS unit because it was so irritating & an employee rode out to where they were & turned their GPS unit back on. But, like the Three Stooges, you can golf with your friends at Fort Cherry.

Over booked and under watered

The course was clearly overbooked. Waiting on about every tee box and got hit into multiple times. The course looked like it hadn’t seen water in weeks with dead spots on some of the greens. Normally an okay course but in current conditions not with playing

Overpriced

In October prices are the same as if it was summer. Course is in decent enough condition but not excellent. For the price I can go a much nicer course. Also if you book online you have to prepay.

Poor Pace

They book every 8 minutes and by hole 2 you are 10 minutes behind pace. 5:30 to finish 18 holes.

Greedy owners to allow bookings so close together.

Nice course, Positive improvement

Positive improvement - oh, not me - the course. While some area courses are just barely maintained it appears that Fort Cherry is continually keeping up with maintenance and also making improvements. The greens are in very good condition. Fairways are okay. There is new signage at the main road. The grille is now open a lot more than on my previous trips.

Slogathon

Six-hour rounds of golf should not happen. Six-somes shouldn't either. Ran into both today at this course, and it just sucked the fun out of the round.

We were delayed by a frightening lightning storm and forced to play cart path only. Considering the amount of rain that fell, that part was reasonable, maybe the only part of the day that was.

Golf courses in Western PA have had it rough this season, and it shows here. Several fairways were largely devoid of grass, and several greens were bare in places that came into play on three or four holes.

Just for good measure, our cart wouldn't climb hills at all. We actually got out and pushed it up the cart path on

Water the course

It’s been a few years since I played here. They have made some updates to the entrance and building but the course was not in good shape. Even with all the rain we have had this early summer a number of the fairways were burned out and the greens were dyed a nice color green but hard as a rock. Plenty of water to pull from the ponds on the course. Don’t understand how the course could be in such rough shape. Not a $65 a round course. Won’t be back anytime soon.

Good shape overall, course is tight with lots of opportunity to get hit by other players balls so pay attention. Greens were pretty quick, fairways good shape.

Love it here

We always enjoy playing here. Gave us extra ice for a very hot day and let us go off early. Course is demanding annd has difficult holes which makes it challenging.
