An Interesting Course For Sure
This is a very interesting course in that it is a bit difficult to figure out exactly where the next tee box is, on a few of the holes. Got to go out as a single so pace of play was great...course not very busy. The fairways and greens were in good shape. Greens held well and puttted nicely. Enjoyed the challenge of the holes, even though a couple of times not exactly sure where to hit the tee ball. There are some very tough holes that require a big tee ball and a long iron. Was a fun day on a fun course.
Free round
I booked a tee time on the app for 8:14. Got there around 7:30 to get loose. Not a soul was there beside me. Pro shop was dark and the parking lot was empty. I thought maybe they didn’t open till. 8 do I putted around for a bit and no one ever showed. So I walked the course.
Very nice signage at each hole with a brief explanation of the hole and carry distances to trouble areas or the hot spots.
The fair ways were in good condition and the greens were rock but smooth. (I played in 30 degree weather)
Fun layout with a lot of twists and turns. Highly recommend playing a round out here.
Great greens
Course in fine condition-- tees boxes, fairways and especially greens.
Once the slowish foursome ahead of us let us play through, we flew through the course. It would help if there were marshals.
7 out of 10
Had a great time out at longwood. Fairways are pretty narrow and you’re golfing out in the woods, so if you aren’t striking the ball well you could have a pretty rough day in the trees. The greens could use some work, although for fall golf, I thought they were decent. A lot of fairly straight putts. Driving range is on the smaller side. I thought the layout of the course was pretty cool. Signs to the next hole are very minimal so if it’s your 1st time playing here make sure you pay attention. Could very easily end up lost on a different tee box haha. All in all 7 out of 10 course.
Uniquely different
This course has 3 nine holes tracks that are different and plays that way. Uniquely different because they offer a different challenge on every hole. Very forgiving, but put the ball on the short grass, scoring is very capable.
Golf today
Course was great. The carts are old and the front ends are unsable. Also no windshields were installed so no wind barrier driving between holes. The temperature that day was 56 degrees.
Beautiful course!
Be aware of the tricky manoeuvring to find some holes on the course - there are no signs to direct you. A great improvement would be to post a few signs on those holes! We were paired with two gentlemen who were very slow players unfortunately. But we enjoyed our experience.
Great Layout
Enjoyed the layout very much. I played Post Oak and Pine. They have 3 9s. 2 out of the 18 greens needed a little love but overall the course was in great condition.
The aspects of this golf course that really matter, layout, tee boxes, fairways and greens, are very good, but the sand traps need to be better maintained - or folks just need to rake them - and the cart paths need repair. Bridges need replacing. I would add the entire fleet of carts needs replacing, but I understand to expect new ones in December. I play this course frequently, and it's nice to see improvements being made. Once the carts come in, all bridges need attention.
Bad Bad Bad
This corse is in bad shape, the greens are acceptable but fair way and tee boxes are poor. No sand to replace divots
Reviews didn’t give it Justice
I play 3x a week. 5hdcp.
From the tips, this course is challenging.
The conditions of the course were excellent, tree line fairways were nice and the greens were well kept. Couple spots on the course not perfect but for the cost this course was very nice.
If your worried about the carts and cart paths then I can see you not being happy, but if you love to test your game then I definitely recommend it.
