Not that bad
Some reviewers really unloaded on the course. It's good to have your expectations low. You can see this was once a terrific course but has fallen on hard times. There's a lot of housing going up around it. I heard that the course was torn up to put some pipe in last winter and two holes were sold off so the back nine is only a par 32 now. Maybe 12 holes are in acceptable shape and the rest are a mess. Hopefully they can bring this beauty back.
Expected Worse
Was pleasantly surprised. Reviews were not good. Would definitely play there again. Some of the greens were a little rough, but enjoyed it.
Curse challenges players ability
Been playing for the last 7 weeks and each week the course has improved the greens and fairways. The sand traps are in disrepair . 3 fairways are in need of over seeding , small pebbles left from the construction . Hoping for continued improvement. .
Even if its free wouldn't play it again.
first time at the course. No range. Course is in terrible condition. Greens are dead. Fairways literally have gravel only in some spots. You will waste more money hitting your clubs off the gravel fairways. Bushes are all over grown. Such a waste because its a great setting with lots of water surrounding the course. If it was half way maintained.
How does this qualify as a golf course?
This was the worst course I have ever played! I don't want to gaslight but the fairway, rough, greens, etc. were indistinguishable at times. I had heard this used to be a nice course so hopefully they can get it back there at some point but I honestly wouldn't play this course again even if it were free. Play anywhere other than this course.
Course conditions
Course was in poor shape. Several sprinklers were on in several locations while playing.
Cedars
Worst golf course ever. You hit off gravel and the greens are not taken care of at all
Beautiful day, rough course
Got a deal online. Course was wide open and we learned why: course has been in terrible condition for several years now. It looks like they don’t care or are going to sell the land to be developed soon. Awful greens, fairways, boundaries, etc. it’s just not good at all.
What Happend
I used to play this 8-10 years ago and loved it. I’m not sure what happened but the course was awful. Multiple fairways were mostly rocky and missing turf. The greens were uneven and not well maintained. The greens had multiple dead spots and dirt patches. Tee boxes had weeds and looked as if they had not had the divots filled in the par 3’s in over a month. Lastly, there is not a driving range. I’m not what happened to this course, but i would avoid it. Not worth the money.
DO NOT PLAY HERE UNLESS YOURE A BEGINNER
Just wasted 28 dollars on the worse 18 I've ever played. THE worst greens ever. The fairway on most holes is pretty much sand/gravel, and they had sprinklers going during my round at noon. I'm disappointed that someone can own such a beautiful course layout and proceed to not care about it and let it die. I WILL NOT BE BACK THERE
Steve and Janet Campbell
So sorry to see the course conditions as they are. Will not return.......
Good golf course thats going to get better
I really like this course. I've been playing here for over 10 years.
The original layout was my favorite. Over the years with owner and management change,
so did the layout. However only the back 9 was changed. The Front 9 is pretty much the same. It's got creeks, streams and ponds everywhere. Holes with elevation and tall ceders. It's a challenging course. Since it's been redone just last year. The greens aren't that great, and some fairways are sandy still. However, I think over time it'll get better, and this will be great place to play.
Hideous Condition
It is a shame that this once decent course has deteriorated this badly. Most greens are uputtable. The fairways are dry and full of weeds. The sand traps are in major need of attention. We had a slow foursome in front of us that took 3 hours to play the front nine. No marshall to help. The course should have paid me to subject myself to such a bad experience. I will not be back. What a shame!
Sometimes, bad is bad.
Huey Lewis had Cedars (present conditions) in mind when he used the “bad is bad” phrase in his song. It is a very sad scenario as just a few years ago (prior to housing development eliminated 2 holes and driving range) it was in pristine shape. The fact they remain open is shocking and even more ludicrous is the fact they charge money to play. It’s really that bad. Baked greens, horrible rough, tee boxes overgrown, etc.. For those of us who have loved having it in our region, it’s saddening to watch ownership abandon it. The pro recently fled to greener pastures and nobody can fault him.
Poor conditions!!
This course is in terrible condition. You have weeds growing in sand traps, gravel in the middle of fairways, and then the greens are in even worse shape. This course looks as though the owners have no interest in maintaining a quality course but rather are more interested in how much property they can sell off. Very sad to see another course in clark county dwindling away!!!
Greens need alot of work.
I had fun but the greens left a lot to be desired. Fairways were also a little thin.
Cedars At Salmon Creek, the course needs some work
The greens are very pockmarked so any putt longer then about 3 feet bounced along. The cut on the fairway is longer, and the rough a ball was nearly impossible to find and I was play matte red golf balls!
unfortunate turn of a course
i would like to say i have played this course many of times over the last 20 years.i can say this is the worst i have ever seen the tees and greens were so bad.chunks of the greens were dieing so i would have to make my own greens and the tees wernt even hitable i also had to hit off to the sides of the tee box just to find a patch of grass.the biggest problem i have is they're charging full price for the round.the rough was so tall and un mowed.i did only send 15$for the round but thats because i used a coupon but if i have pay the 45$ i would have walked off and got a refund.i would not play this course at any cost.a free round isnt even worth it.rather go to the driving range.SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!!
Worst course ever.
I played this course 3 years ago. It was in fair shape. This time, it was atrocious. All Covid-19 precautions aside, the fairways were not mowed. The rough was not mowed. The greens were not mowed. There were giant bald patches. You have to be a pretty terrible greens keeper to not have grass grow in the pacific northwest, in the spring.
Worse. No martials, super slow pace of play.
Avoid this course at all costs.
Would rather play in a pasture
The design on the front nine is probably the most nine fun holes in Clark County. But it's impossible to get over the state of this course. The worst $42 course i've ever seen. The tee boxes are full of weeds and moss. The fairways are shaggy or bare, some even have gravel in them. The 14th is just gravel 40 yards up to the green. The rough is basically just the lawn clippings from the mower. The greens, well you'd be better off putting in a war zone — if your ball doesn't go airborne on a 20 foot putt, you're lucky. Around the greens, it's impossible to chip because it's either hard pan or deep sand with some grass growing on top. The bunkers are concrete. So so much potential in this course, but when the homeowners in the area have better lawns than the golf course, it's a problem.
