Low value for money, multiple hole standing water

The course has a hilly and fairly tight layout which is pleasantly challenging. But with no map of the course either on the scorecards or at the teebox you are lost without other gps tech.

The day I played followed a week of rain. Rather than curtail play or cancel holes, the course was full open and a lot of traffic but with much of the fairway on about 8 holes roped off as OB due to standing or running water. It made for a very frustrating experience. I felt the green fees ($75) was very high for the quality of play provided.

Needs work

Tee boxes were spotty at best, I guess they were overseeding fairways cause they were running sprinklers all day and sections of fairways roped off.So e greens looked bare and diseased. Have played here many times and course was great but not this round .Found out my buddy who played with me got a discounted round while I booked the night before on golf now and paid full price for me and my son.

Rough shape

This course is in rough shape. They are actively working on it, however, one of the Par 3’s was completely closed due to no tee boxes, 5-6 fairways were completely closed, one other tee boxes was was shut down. There was zero indication that this was going to be the status of the course. Disappointed in the rate for a fraction of the course being open/available.

Under Repair

Like the other recent reviews said this course is under repair. As of 7/16/25 they've got sod on some tee boxes, probably 8-9 fairways have massive patches of fresh seeded roped areas under constant sprinklers. Played with a hot deal of $35 so not sweating it too much but if I payed full price not knowing it was under repair I would have been bummed. I know there is an indicator you can include on your Golf Now listing that indicates that, something I would recommend the course implements. Some greens could use some work for sure.

With all that being said, everyone there is always super friendly, I generally like playing the course, hopefully in a month or so it's back up to it's usual standard.

Not a bad course but not for the price

In the middle of season, you wouldn’t expect browned out fairways, really rough tee boxes, including some under repair, and $10 for a small bucket of balls on a range that looks like a cow pasture. Overall, the course wasn’t bad if you were paying $40 but for $80 this course is definitely not worth it. Pace of play was fine we were never slowed down but course conditions just don’t warrant the cost.

Hanover 7/6

The people at Hanover are still some of the friendliest around. It pains me to say the course conditions right now are tough. A lot of bare areas on fairways and small spots on some greens. Some new sod on the tees shows they are trying to get it back up to speed. I think they will bring it back but i would hold off playing there for the rest of July to give them time to recover.

Enjoyed the round on this hot afternoon. Three extra-interesting holes before heading "into the valley"!

Not my first time playing this course, generally its conditions are decent. The brutal heat wave of the previous week took its toll on patches of the course, mainly tee boxes and fairways, when I played yesterday, however. They were trying… They had people hand watering the greens during the day. But sections of the course fell prey to the brutal heat we’ve been having this past week.

Conditions !

Not sure where this course puts the money it gets from greens fees. Not in the maintenance of tee boxes or fairways. Huge areas where ALL the grass was dead. Many holes are unfair - tight and long with minimal landing areas. I don't think I'll be coming back until the maintenance improves.

I was disappointed that at the time of making the online reservation I was not able to see that course maintenance would be occurring on the front nine. When we arrived, we were told that aeration and sanding of greens would be taking place, start play on back nine and we may have to skip a hole if we caught workers on front nine turn. We did, and that would not have been an issue. The bigger issue was all flags and cups were removed so you had no way to know where to aim. We gave up after 3 holes on that nine. I should have addressed the issue at the course but there were 5 or 6 other players in the clubhouse, and I did not want to create an issue for the person manning the pro shop.

Loved course but…

Lost my pitching wedge on the front 9 and the pro shop did nothing to help me find it.

good value; but odd holes and little service

Played 18 on Sunday afternoon for $45 with cart- lowest price in town I believe. No pace of play issues. Holes 10-15 are a cool little stretch, though 11 is extra long. Saw lots of wildlife.

Many holes had large elevation differences which made for tee shots that weren’t that fun. Holes 4 and 6 are pretty miserable. Rough was very thick in many spots. A number of fairways had a multiple

and larges patches without grass.

No beverage cart and grill closed at either 5pm or 6pm.

Overall, good value and would come back.
