Armitage Golf Course

This course is ok.

Pros:

- Everything was in great shape

- Relatively cheap course, especially for the shape the course was in

Cons:

- Short, boring layout - every hole kind of feels the same

- First cut of rough was very high, which was especially punishing given the short, sloped fairways on almost every hole. Almost every drive (even straight ones) will roll off of the fairways and end 1-2 feet into the rough.

Course is in good shape. Greens and fairways are great, just a few dirt patches in the rough. However, I had a big issue w/ the starter. He walked past me in the clubhouse as I was paying for my round and a box of balls. He later came out to the 1st tee and accused me of not paying for my round. When I told him I already went inside and paid, he again stated that I did not pay. When he realized he was wrong, he didn’t apologize. Extremely unprofessional on his part.

The course was playable... But hole 17 is under repair. The 16 tee box was moved to the fairway... These things will be resolved soon enough... So minor complaints at best. The golf carts are reasonably new so i had no issues with that.

I enjoyed my round. The wind was a bit too high... So i struggled, but the pace was solid and the variation in height was appreciated.

Although this course is not the most eloquent course in the area the maintenance crew didn’t seem to care about people playing. We had several workers drive in front off sun while we were hitting. They appeared to be adding some sort of sprinkler/ irrigation to the course. There was construction all over the front 9.

The back was our favorite.

Hole 16 was under construction so it was unplayable. Course maintenance is necessary though, so I understand. Otherwise it’s a nice course.

First time out at Armitage this year. Great round as always. Pace of play was great on the front, but lost 2 partners on the back and had to wait a little. Not the end of the world. Greens were in great shape. Bunkers were in good shape as well, only in 2 all day. No rakes out there but I’m guessing that’s due to it being fall.

Nice little course has some decent difficulty holes. Nice price. Great staff. Will play again

This was the first time we played this course and it was in excellent condition for the last day of October. The greens and fairways were well-maintained and lush even after many weeks without rain.(Although that made for some difficulty holding the greens) The staff was helpful and the restaurant /bar is fantastic. The price to play is so reasonable that I spent more money on lunch and a couple of beers than the cost of the round and the cart.

Short and Narrow. Fast greens. #2 & #10 greens are sloped and tough but #16 is the most difficult.
