Pleasantly surprised!

This was our first time playing Indian river and it was a pleasant surprise. Greens and fairways are in great shape. We talked the one of the greens technicians on the practice green and he was very nice and knowledgable on the course. What a nice lady at the food bar and she makes the best chicken salad sandwiches! We ended up behind a very slow group and couldnt finish our round but the golf pro issued us a raincheck. Very nice course with great views on many holes and the greens will challenge your ability read. Play this course.!

Indian River

The course was in good shape. The pace of place was a little slow, but it was the 4th of July, so it's understandable. The staff was courteous. It's a definite value for the price! I'll go back.

Only one problem....GNATS !

Course was nice and in good shape. It was a pain trying to hit a shot with gnats all over my face. Took me 3 hours to play 18 with nobody in front of me. Hope they take care of the gnats.

Bang for the buck

Loved the course it was a challenge from the first hole to the last. The greens were fast but rolled true and I had a great time it and Linrick are my two sleeper courses in Columbia for looks and cost.

Challenging course

This course is one of my favorites. You can't get a better deal for $25. Some parts 5s are reachable in 2 shots but with the rolling greens it makes it tough to stick a shot close. I play here about twice a month. The only downside is some foursomes do not know golf etiquette and allow faster golfers to play thru and the old man who checks you in can be rather rude, but the course is very well taken care of. Love it.

Always Good!

I have been playing this course for years and it is always in very good condition and the best deal in town. Golf Now's price for $25.00 for 18 holes makes this an excellent deal. A six pack and chicken salad sandwich (which was very good) was $16.00. I guess not a great value but in line with most courses. The staff is always friendly. The only complaint I have is over the years (to include yesterday) is as we made the turn a foursome started on the back nine. This seems to occur a lot here with the pro shop starting them their. They only held us up on two holes but this just should not happen. I have never played this course when it was in anything but good condition. Make sure you are below the pin on every hole (very undulating). All the par three's play longer than the yardages.

Enjoy and fairways and greens!

Different look

Had not played this course in two years before Sundays round. Course was in excellent condition, a little spungy around the greens due to the rain and greens were super slow but love the layout. Lots of maintenance done in the rough which gives the back nine a new look. Had a great day

will go again

The course has a good mix of different length holes which makes you choose wisely off the tee box. The greens have a lot of movement but are not overly fast. The fairways are greening up nicely with a little help from mother nature they should be in great shape. There was very little dead pan areas on or off the fairways.

great golf course

The course is in great shape, the greens roll true. Some holes you have to place your shots which makes it a very fun course to play. The greens have a lot of undulations which means very few straight puts. Spend a little time on the practice green putting before your round, it will help your putting on the course.

Great value.

Course was in a good condition after a harsh winter. There is some home construction going on around the course so there is noise from that. I got an online tee special for $21 and you cannot get a better value than that for a quality course. The course itself was in good shape and the greens were in excellent shape although a little fast on the day I played. I would say the course is a challenge for all levels of okay.

Be long off the tee.

What a great value! 18 bucks to ride! Do not walk this course. Holes are spaced out quite well. Greens have challenging undulations, as well as being fast when on the wrong side of the hole. Greens rolled great. You really need to be long and fairly straight off the tee if you want to score well. Again, a great value for the price.
