This Course
never seems to disappoint me!!! One of the best courses I have ever been too. Keep up the good work guys..
Course is in great shape
We blew through 18 holes in 3.5 hours. No one was pushing and we were not waiting for the group in front. Fairways were in very good shape.
This will be a first rate course once the new clubhouse is complete. I always enjoy this course.
Great course
I play here as much as I can. This course is challenging but also golfer friendly.
Value for the dollar
The course was in great shape except for the bunkers, but I think that was due to all the rain they just had
Dogwood
Best kept secret. This course exceeds expectations. Great layout, fareways and pristine greens. No sun damage
Just like the other reviews stated a hidden gem
Wow, what a great course to play. It was well worth the hour and a half drive from my hotel. For a public course this place has super conditions. They are just about finished with the new club house. I will play here again and recommend this to others. The value was great to. This place has a driving range and chipping area and a large practice putting green. Well worth your time and money to check it out.
A Pleasant Surprise
staff very friendly. course in great shape. front nine was great. back nine was a little long for my taste. but overall a very nice surprise.
staff and course are outstanding
Staff is great , good practice facilities and course is in immaculate condition .
Enjoyable
I was in town for the weekend and looking for a place to play. The conditions of the course were great . I had a very enjoyable time. I would recommend playing a round . Great value .
Good Choice for a Hot Deal
Excellent muni course. The conditions were excellent, service was attentive, and the course was fun. What I really like is that the penalty for most errant shots is a punch out rather than a lost a ball and a drop. The fairways are generous and from the whites even a high handicapper has a shot at a few GIRs. Even though the course was busy, the pace was pretty good. Playing in a twosome, we rarely had to wait for more than a minute or two. The rack rate seems a little high for a municipal course, but if you can get on for a deal Take It.
Enjoyed playing Dogwood
I liked the fact that the front 9 had wider fairways so that you could get your round off to a decent start. The course forces you to use most of the clubs in your bag. I will be returning to play this course again.
Dogwood-No Dog
Played Dogwood for the first time. The course was in good condition, greens had been recently aerated but no sand. Consists of some long par 3's and short par 5's. Enjoyed the round and recommend you give it a try.
Great course for the money
Very friendly staff, nice course, great deal for the money.
Great Value
3rd time playing at Dogwood Trace and always a great value. Fairways and greens are better than the private course of which I'm a member! Yeah, makes me want to rethink where my $$$'s going. Anyway, fantastic course for the money... very consistent.
Good course
The course here is really good. Front 9 is a little better than back 9 for the fact of hole diversity in layout. Course has a lot of long narrow fairways, so you find that a lot of balls on your fairway is actually from the hole next to you. This past time playing, a group of 6 somehow got together, slowing down everything eventually having a back up of about 5 groups and the Marshall coming and the opening everything up somehow. Tee boxes could use some fixing but still not bad and driving range wasn't working at the time. Overall, would play again here if find a good deal.
Nice, wish I had waited a month
I had not played this course in a long time, I like what the city has done with the place. The greens and bunkers were both in nice shape, but the course is all Bermuda so it would have been a lot better in May. Having said that, I would definitely play here again with my only caveat being I'd play during warm weather months.
Great afternoon
Played 18 after work. The are getting the course ready for the spring. Greens were airated and a little tonight putting. The fairways and tee boxes are still dormant. Still a great course to play.
beautiful day
Golf greens had just been aerated and top dressed, very fast. Bermuda fairways still brown and not much grass to play off in fairways. Golf cart started acting up and barely moving by 15th hole, at which point we saw another pair of golfers waiting to have their cart replaced, as it had quit running.
