Rating 71.6

Glacier Wood Golf Club has a unique landscape that was carved by ice and earth. The scenic course sprawls across diverse terrain that combines open, grassy meadows, with mature forests and marshland. Sweeping elevation changes and glacial rocks that frame the course provide stunning views from tee to green. The more open holes have a spacious feel while the wooded ones are invitingly secluded. Golfers will have numerous strategically placed bunkers to contend with as well as many water hazards. The par-3 12th hole is the course's signature. This stunning hole incorporates dramatic elevation changes, forest, and wetlands for a challenge that you won't soon forget. The 15th is another hole that is as equally memorable, a u-shaped par 5 that is a double dogleg with a steeply sloped green.

Great staff and amazing course

Great course. Friendly staff and amazing prices. Always a course I love to come back to. I would recommend this course to all my friends and anyone looking to golf in the area. This was the course I spent most of my summer at last year and can not wait to get back out there mroe this year. Also the iron grill food is amazing if you have time to eat there.

Won't Find A Better Deal

By far my favorite course and the most value for the money. The course is always in fantastic shape and the wildlife scenery cannot be beat. The people behind the desk in the Pro Shop are friendly time and time again. The upgrades to the restaurant make the course even more appealing as the food is perfect for a post-round lunch/dinner.

September 12

Excellent course.. The course has some unique holes. #12 a elevated par 3 is great.

The course has a lot of woods and wildlife.

We saw several deer, wild turkeys, and foxes. Glacier boulders make a perfect home for the family of foxes. If your ball gets close to the den, don't be surprised if the fox takes your ball.
Great course!!

GREAT COURSE

If you play this course and you're a fairly short hitter, you should play from the white tees. I have played the course from the green tees and the white. White is more enjoyable for the average golfer I would say. THE STAFF IS GREAT. You won't meet friendlier people anywhere.

Great golf course but checking in was frustrating

Great golf course! Conditions were great. Pace of play was very, very slow though. I also was frustrated about checking in for our tee time. I paid online on GolfNow and the employee at the course said my credit card didn't get charged and he charged me again at the course. He didn't know how GolfNow works which was very frustrating. He was also somewhat rude about it too. I did get my money back for being charged twice though.

Great value

This is one of the better courses in the area. What makes it even better is the reasonable price for golfing. They take advantage of GolfNow so that's a bonus for me to check pricing and open tee times.

Staff is great and the food is phenomenal there. A+.

Great November Round

A noon tee time turned into a perfect day for 18 holes of late Fall golf. The fairways were lush with challenging but fair rough. The greens were cut low and were about 95% leaf free. The staff was very friendly but the clubhouse was closed for food and drink due to the lack of die hard golfers looking for a Saturday afternoon round of golf on a gorgeous course. Agreat course foe all golfers.

Played from the senior tees and for my length the course was very playable. Adding additional tee length would make the course very challanging for any skill level. Great fast greens.

Challenging & Fair.

Lots of interesting holes. Only hole I'm not fond of is number 15, a par 5 that seems set up a bit odd. Otherwise every hole is challenging but fair. Greens were a little bouncy but they putted very true. Fantastic Value for the money.

A hidden jewel!

It's rare when I can't come up with one or two negatives about a course. That is the case for Glacier Wood. It truly is an exceptional value for the money and I can't wait to get back for the second round to try to correct "my" short comings.
