Rating 72.1

Inniscrone Golf Club in Avondale is one of the toughest public courses in the area. It is a formidable challenge to say the least, but an enjoyable one. None of the holes run parallel to each other and no two holes are alike either. The greens have quite a bit of variation from one to the next but mostly they are very large and extremely fast. Although the greens only have mild contouring, the rippling landscape still provides plenty of challenges throughout. Strategically placed bunkers perfectly complement the dramatic elevation changes, ranging from pot bunkers to vast expanses of sand. Inniscrone Golf Club's ninth hole is a memorable one since it encapsulates the course's appeal with a ridge of cross-bunkers just off the tee and even more along the left side.

Tender Loving Care Needed

First time playing. The course layout was pretty good with a variety of holes and distances. Challenging, but fair and fun. The condition of the course was poor. Tee boxes had more bar spots than grass. Fairways often had brown, bald areas with no grass. Greens had brown areas so much so you would need to move your spot so you could putt on grass. Bunkers had as much dirt and mud as they did sand. I believe it would be a very good course with better upkeep.

A Shame

Great layout, they must have given up. Raccoons and birds are going after the grubs. Holes in the middle of greens. Poorly maintained. This once gem is now barely worth a visit at any price.

It is a shame

This was a top level course, not that long ago.

It is in horrible condition, particularly the greens.

If it was free I might play it to get in a few swings, otherwise, spend your money at one of 50 other better options in the area.

Course Is in horrid shape

As sonmeone who has played this course dozens of times and as someone who loves this course, I am afraid to say it has turned into a pit. Not one bunker is playable, the greens are destroyed, hundred of ball marks and chunks missing. The fairways are as bald as Bruce Willis. Some bunkers and fairways look like a vehicle drove over them. The pace of play is terrible, seems to me that due to covid they stopped taking care of the course because they know people are going to come and play since there is nothing else to do. I will be skipping this course until 2021.

Confused

I read the recent reviews about negligence to the course; the past week the area received 18 inches of rain. If you cut your on lawn you know you have to wait days to begin cutting. I’m surprised the course was even opened. Golfed today and the grounds crew was out in force since the rainfall has lightened up.

Current state of affairs are sad

Look, this course wasn't without its design flaws at the outset. A lot of tees and greens were doomed due to airflow (or lack thereof), and there were a lot of low areas with nowhere for water to go.

....but good lord I don't think anyone even works here anymore. They've given up. The bunkers don't have sand in them anymore and are mostly grown in with weeds, as the beautiful faces Hanse designed have crumbled with time. There are countless water hazards that are...uh, new? Many of the great design features (the redan 8th, the blind cape 4th, the 9th tee boxes) have been abandoned.

Holes have been in the same place for weeks, and are a solid half inch more narrow than normal. The rough is likely cut weekly at absolute most. The greens are dead and spongey. The coup de grace is the "signature" 13th - the tree the logo is based on cracked and looks like it's on its way out.

I'd come back just for the bones (they're still there, I promise) but there's no meat left on them. Hope someone buys this place and tries to bring it to what it was supposed to be, otherwise they should just let it go.

What Happened?

Is this place being sold, or did they just stop caring? The course is an absolute disaster. They had a total of 2 employees on a Saturday Afternoon in August. Every fairway (literally every one) was COVERED in grass clippings, and that’s in the spots that weren’t missing from old divots or just straight dead grass. The greens weren’t green; more brown from the spots that no longer has grass on them. Good luck lining up a putt that’s has to roll over 3 different terrain types, then drop in a cup that CLEARLY hasn’t been changed in about a week. However, the new hazards are fun....oh they aren’t there by design, though. Just random lakes and craters all over the course. If you’re lucky enough to land in a bunker, don’t forget your pick axe, weed whacker, and maybe a small excavator. Very sad to see this place go from one of the better public courses in the area to a complete piece of garbage. Hope they wake up

Ain’t what it used to be

Course is in ROUGH shape. Greens are beat. 5 hour+ round. Wanted to leave after 9. 2:45 to play the front. It used to be pretty decent. Not worth it anymore. Won’t be back

Poor conditions and not friendly

Great layout but needs a lot of TLC to improve tee boxes, greens and bunkers.

Staff can be very unfriendly and refuse to offer refunds even when there are thunder and lightning storms.

Inniscrone Out_and_ done

Good, tough track but most of the greens were in bad to horrible shape. Dead spots, ball marks, holes. Tees in pretty bad shape, too. Some of the fairways hadn’t been cut in days, were like first cut of rough.

I won’t consider returning until probably next season.

Owner has given up

Course is in horrible condition & cannot blame it on recent weather. Tee boxes are so bad, have to hit off the side or in front to have footing. Greens are ultimately unputtable in most areas. Holes have not been moved in ages so all around hole is nothing but spike marks & basically mud spots. Rough on some holes is not rough but just woods & swamp just starting to take over. Also can understand bunkers being a little rough but some arent even bunkers anymore, just have transformed into swamp bogs. Some are even literally in the fairway.

Owners have given up & hope to get enough people on the course due to their cheap prices & website photos to hope they can fool people into playing. It is sad. Play anywhere else but here, a lot of good public courses in PA, DE, MD. Don’t waste your time here
