Good early season round.

My wife and I enjoyed a beautiful early spring day playing the Pines and Lake nines. The greens had been sanded but the course was well maintained.

Why let groups of 5 back to back to back?

Course was fine. Using the app is great. We (a group of 2) played behind 3 groups of 5. Why? Terrible experience and I’ve been playing here 20 plus years.

Course Conditions

Tee boxes and greens were bad. Fairways ok. Used to play this course a lot and the course was always in pretty good shape. I’ve never seen this course look this bad. The rest of my foursome felt the same.

Making Huge Progress

Tri-Cities is the closest course to home for me, and I would play there a lot more often - maybe even become a member - if it was in better condition. It had been 2 months since the last time I played there this past Monday (11/11/24), and I play about twice a week. The last time I played there, the greens were completely unacceptable for play.

They were 10,000% better when I played there this time. I even made it a point to stop in the pro shop on my way out to complement them on the turnaround. They’re not all the way there yet, but they’re getting close. I really hope they keep it up!

Old Faithful

This is a course I have always relied on for a relaxing and peaceful round. It is one of the 1st courses I have memories playing. In the Tri-cities area, it’s probably the best value and with 27 holes, you rarely feel crowded or rushed. Most of the senior golfers prefer the Pines 9 followed by the Lakes 9 and avoid the Woods due to narrower fairways and longer par 3’s. The Woods definitely requires more accuracy and for most 160-200 yard clubs, which will be necessary on 2 par 3’s and a dogleg left par 4. Pines and lakes free you up to “grip it and rip it” with more forgiveness but sometimes I like the challenge of hitting my 3-4 irons. Definitely beautiful scenery and a friendly staff.

Tri-Cities Golf Course

The staff here has always been great for the few we see. The Course itself needs more staff and equipment it appears? We found greens needing attention. We found the second cuts of the fairway very deep!

We like this course very much and would play more but for the price it seems that very little funds are going back into the course? So not the Staff but the Course Manager doesn’t seem to have the resources needed to make this a great GC! Again we like this course layout. Hope things improve for all.

Greens or were they?

Easy enough course to be that slow. The greens had some very nice grass. And then again dryed out dirt like aligator skin. Very nasty.I had to move my play as I deamed it was ground under repair. Lots of weeds even just off the greens. The price was a deal on Golf Now at 11:00 on a sunday for 37.00. Good thing I recorded the football game. Slow pace. No water coolers out on the course. But they did have porta pottys. A snadwich and gatoraide at the turn was $8.25 w/10% tip kind of implied. I wish them the best. I might try it next year. Maybe.

Burnt Up

Summer heat was hard on course. Greens are burnt up and in bad shape. Sand traps have not been taken care of. Course needs attention!

Not bad for the money

Greens ar roughest part of the course, but for the money it's not bad. If the greens were in better shape it'd be solid. Pace is relaxed, sometimes a little too relaxed. Wish the concessions were open and had hot dogs
