Inniscrone Golf Club

Great course off the beaten path. Nice and green in a mini drought. Can’t wait to go back. Kind of course that gets better once you know the track.

I have mixed feelings about this place. The course is interesting, is usually in pretty good shape, the greens fees are reasonable, the staff is friendly. But I have never enjoyed the design of this course. The front nine is very good and pretty straightforward, but the back nine is much more difficult and is filled with blind shots, greens perched next to steep ravines, and forced carries,. I like the course; I wish I liked it more.

This Gil Hanse designed course is a treasure. The layout is challenging with varied holes. I knew all this because I have played the course many times. But what impressed me today, was the course condition. In spite of the dry conditions we have been experiencing, the course was not at all burned out. The greens keeping staff is doing a great job.

Haven’t played Inniscrone in a couple years. Glad to see it is still in above average shape. Always worth playing, especially when you get a deal on GolfNow. I recommend everyone come out to Avondale and play this track at least once a year.

Beautifully maintained course with lots of challenges, but also some forgiving holes to help you out. Great staff from the cart attendant to the pro shop. We will definitely play this course again, even though it's a half hour drive away, it's worth every mile. The only negative was that there was no beverage cart, and for 100 F temps on the Fourth, that would have been greatly appreciated!

My first time playing this course and it was a deal! Most holes had a nice layout, but definitely some holes that were a bit strange. Pace of play was pretty good mid week. I would try it again

If I lived close, I’d get a membership. Layout is fantastic, and condition was very good. It’s easy to see that the course was meant to be private. They softened up a few holes but the course stays difficult from the back tees.

2nd time I have played this course, but it was a couple years ago when I played for the first time. The Golf Course is in excellent condition and will challenge you in every way possible. I enjoyed my round and I will be going back to play this course again. The Staff was very helpful and very nice.

The staff was awesome course was awesome can’t wait to go back!!!!

Course is in good shape, hard and fast with those stupid holes that make you think Gil Hanse gave up on this place before he finished it, but the grounds crew have done an impeccable job of maintaining the place and greens roll fast and true. Don’t bite off more than you can chew by thinking the distance totals on the scorecard mean you can move back a tee, you can’t, this course will make you pay if you. I do have one gripe though. Charging players for water out on the course is a belligerent underhanded dirty nickel & diming practice that is unbetting a course of this quality, especially in the June heat.

Grabbed the 7:30AM tee time with my buddy and were paired up with a husband and wife (told the course was booked). The couple ended up being awesome and we had a great time.

Let's get the negatives out of the way. First, they put TWO two somes off behind us. We also had a twosome put out in front of us. As a foursome we were on the 3rd tee and the twosome was putting on the 3rd green and we kept that pace for the entire front 9. By 10 tee we run in for some beverages and the first twosome behind us is waiting. Meanwhile the two some in front of us is still on the 10th gree. We played the front 9 in under two hours and have this issue. By 12 tee the first twosome behind us just skips a hole, only to run in to the two some in front of us. By 13 green the other two some behind us does the same thing and what do they have to do? Wait on 14 tee for the other two twosomes. At this point I said something to the second twosome and they replied, "we are just a twosome." I told them that I could count and then our foursome proceeded to wait on 3 twosomes from 14 until we had some issues on 17 and were able to play 18 in peace.

That right there is a management issue and a prime example of what happens when you do not hold people to a tee time and just allow the group to hit their first tee shot immediately after the group hits their approach on #1. It was pitiful and we played in under four hours. We walked off of 18 at 11:15am only to be frustrated by the problems from 14-17.

Now onto the positives. #1 they have brand new carts and they are equipped with USB ports on both the driver and passenger side. That is HUGE! Very pleased, but they are kind of hidden and we did not notice until the 9th tee.

Course was in decent shape, they did not mow the greens on a Friday morning which was really frustrating. They were slow and not like how I remember Inniscrone from the early 2000's.

The beverage selection was pretty solid and they gave us a mini cooler loaded with ice.

For $35.99 I do not think you can beat the value, but I'm sure pace of play is an issue if you are not one of the very first groups off.

First time I played this course. Wanted to get something early on Saturday and I had a 715 tee time. Of course pace was good at this time. It is a middle of the road course. Very hilly so you get some tough lies above and below your feet but that can be challenging and fun once in a while. Course was it good shape staff was ok.

Inniscrone is one of Gil Hanse's first solo designs (Google Gil). Inniscrone opened as a private club but is now opperates as a daily fee. Classic, minimalist strategic design inspired by achitects of the "golden age" (pre 1930). Rugged bunkering and challenging putting surfaces. Some holes play short to small targets, others play long and wide. One or two holes need a "do over" but I suspect environmental restrictions/budgets led to these design interruptions. Inniscrone boasts new carts and refreshed management. Course conditions, while green, are not up to par with the shot values. For the money, it's hard to find a better track for those who embrace a challenge.

Inniscrone challenges all parts of your game. The course starts off with short finesse holes and holes 6-9 requires real power. The rough was brutally tough and high on this day due to all the rain we've had. Driving the ball accurately is the biggest key on this course. If you do not hit it straight you'll have a very difficult round. For the value there is no better in the area than Inniscrone. Wish people would treat it better and repair their ball marks. Just because you don't pay premium prices to play here does not mean its not worthy of keeping it pristine like it should be.

I think they don''t like golf now hot deal customer?

Nice course very challenging layout, very slow play probably because of the difficulty
