Nice little jewel

This course is not real long, but can still challenge your game. We played behind a jr tournament this the course was rough up a little. Took a little while to remember how to putt on real gras!

Good College Course

Played early Saturday, helpful staff, fairly open fairways, greens in excellent shape. Fellow players friendly. Foursome in front of us allowed our twosome to play through, though they hadn't held us up. If you're in Cookeville, TN it is good place to get in a round.

Good fairways for this area of Tennessee

Greens weren’t good - aeration was an issue though it didn’t appear to be recently done. The fairways were better than many area courses, though not great by any means. Other than trees and relatively narrow fairways the layout was nothing special.

Restaurant wasn’t open, washroom was out of paper and toilet was running full on.

That said, everyone was really friendly and we had a good time.

We really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. We aerated our greens a little over a week prior to your visit, so they are still recovering and should be back to their normal condition within the next few days. Thanks again for coming out and we look forward to seeing you in the near future.

Thank you for coming out on Monday. We make every effort to ensure that each of our guests are aware of course conditions prior to the start of their round, because we understand that nobody enjoys playing on a wet golf course. Unfortunately, we received over two inches of rain on Sunday and Monday, adding to what has already been a wet Spring. We look forward to seeing you again in the near future, when the temperature warms up and the course dries out.

Fairways in poor condition

It is mid-April and fairways are still dormant. Almost looked like drought conditions despite plentiful rain recently.

Thanks again for coming out last week and we appreciate you taking the time to share some feedback with us. While we have received our fair share of rain over the past two months, the fairways will be in tremendous shape once the temperature starts to warm up. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

Mixed bag

I got a great price on golf now and the greens were very fast and true. That was the good part. The layout was pretty vanilla without much elevation change. Sand bunkers were packed and wet. The bad part was the fairways. They were a soggy, squishy, muddy mess. I was informed in the pro shop of about 6 holes that would be cartpath only but most greens were surrounded by a bog. No shot landing short of the green was going to roll on. Sorry, but it just wasn’t a very fun round on this day.

Steady Improvement

This course is on its way up after a few years of disrepair. They are changing it a little to make room for the college and the longer tee's. Greens over a year ago were extremely firm and the fairway was rough. The greens are now pretty plush and the fairways are in great shape. I was pleased with the progress.
