Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6952 yards
Slope 132
Rating 73.3

The Golf Club at Star Fort sits near the site of a Revolutionary battle known as the Assault at Star Fort. The golf course offers a family-friendly layout surrounded by the region's rich history. The player-friendly design is gentle enough for junior players and beginners, but it's also great for more advanced players who are looking for a quick round. It will surprise you with a few challenges too. At 6,952 yards, the golf course isn't terribly long but there are still some good driving holes. There are some interesting risk-reward par 5s and some fun par 3s that will make you think. Star Fort's final hole is a par 4 that requires accuracy over distance since you'll have to weave through two ponds before facing an uphill shot to a well bunkered green.

Great value

It's a long course with a very nice layout. The greens were some of the best I've play on. Every sand trap was well maintained in perfect shape. The downside to this course is the fairways,they are only so-so. Overall, I enjoyed playing this course and will be back to play again.

Extremely difficult

The course plays extremely long and with many dog legs. The greens are very fast, hilly, and extremely hard to read. You must place your ball in the correct spot on the green or be faced with impossible putts. This course is not for beginners unless you wish to shoot 130-150 score. I will never return for these reasons.

With everything you described you should have given 5 stars.You shouldn't downgrade the course cause you don't have enough skills to score good.

Challenges on every fairway

Great course played in rain but still enjoyed it. Wish there was a hole layout on scorecard. Very well taken care of, cart paths were in need of repairs. Don't play golf on cart path so not a big deal. Hope to play here again with sun and dryer course.

Only problem I saw was cart paths need some work. Greens are fast, but in good shape. Great check in time. Friendly staff.

Disappointed

While the fairways were in very good condition, the greens had some areas that were not. Our tee time was 10:30 on a weekday. Play on the front 9 was interrupted by course workers mowing and sweeping the fairways. My drive on hole #2 landed in the middle of the fairway. But we found it in the rough 50 yards from the tee box after the sweeper dragged it. Too much noise and distraction disrupted play on the front. The back was enjoyable.

Loved the course very excellent but be prepared for 8hrs for 18 holes. They let groups of 6-8 out on course and no one will let you play through poor poor pace of play

Great course

The greens were nearly perfect, the fairways were ok. I was a little surprised by the shape of the club house, but everything else was good. Especially the greens. The bunkers, unfortunately I got more experience playing out of these than I'd care for, were also well kept. The Green's keeper gets an A+
