CARTS

If you have to pay extra for a cart do not do it. Unless they upgrade it is not worth the money. My carts front wheel was about to fall off, and when I brought it back to the club house to switch, the cart guy tried to blame it on me. Not worth the headache when the course is easy enough to walk. If you do get a cart check it before you head out.

Keep your woods in the bag...

This is a decent course, the condition could be in better shape. A lot of soggy spots on the course, yet some greens are dried out. It is a short course, so good for iron play, no need to hit anything but irons. However for what you get, it should be a $25 course, especially compared to all the standard size courses. They are talking of upping the rates even more, poor decision! Don't bother with the food there. It has a nice patio for a cold beer, but the food is horrid. The pro shop boss has finally retired after 30 yrs or so, so hopefully things will change for the better.

Fun, Fun, Fun

I had a blast playing this course yesterday. This has been one of my "go to" courses over the years. Staff was great. Got me out early and I never had to wait on one hole. Since I am disabled and have to ride that was a real plus. A nice place to golf!

Good course

Overall all well kept course. Price seems fair although I have only ever golfed there with the hot deals from golf now. Not a hard course but may be difficult for beginners as water comes into play quite a bit with the river bordering and cutting through two of the par threes on the back nine.

Foster Golf Course, a great track to play

I had not played Foster in years until last month and again this past Friday,

The course is in excellent condition, most shots call for accuracy on the drives that lead to a good second shot and opportunities to score well.

i would recommend Foster to anyone that does not want to travel long distances to play yet has some degree of difficulty if shots are not well placed.

Fun, relaxing course

Great course to pad your handicap! First 4 holes straightaway 300-yard par 4s. Then some variety comes into play. Has to be the easiest course in the area, but perfect for an afternoon round after work. Greens and fairways in great shape.

The pro shop is like walking into Putez or port golf

this is an amazing golf course; the food was wonderful; the staff was excellent and the pro shop was set up incredibly. the pace of play was also really really nice it was a beautiful day of golf. We had virtually no restrictions of smooth play. Again I must say the pro shop was amazing; this is a must play course a well kept secret if nothing more go try the food.
