Like the course but it was super packed. We were backed up on every hole. A bit frustrating that the pace of play was so slow and that the group behind us kept hitting up on us almost hitting us a few times.

Good play for the price

Even though it's been hot, the course has been well taken care of. Of course there are some dry areas but if you play in the middle and not outside the course you will have a good time. I've played on other courses in the area and fairways seen to be very dry. I highly recommend this course.

Challenging yet fun

This course is challenging for the beginner golfer and fun for the advanced. It's a pretty straight forward course as far as traps, hazards, and obstacles are concerned. Some of the traps need some work because they have been packed down do to rain. But over all an awesome course would definitely recommend playing here.

Good value

Good value and pretty good greens. Sad to see the course going down hill over all. We had fun and I'd play there again. Can't beat the price. I hope they will not let the maintenance go down hill. I guess it is hard to keep the place perfect with cheap rates.

Great Course, Staff Could Be More Helpful

This is a great course for the money you're spending, and is kept up very well. Fairways are open, greens are fast. That being said, the staff could be a little more helpful. I booked online with GolfNow for 7:22 am and when I arrived, they couldn't find my reservation. It ended up being under my last name (what a concept) and they told me my tee time was 7:36. Not a problem, just means free time to chip and putt. They said they would call me when it was my time to tee off, they didn't. I had to go in and ask them what the deal was, and then I had to go back in the ask them for a cart key.

Great fairways and greens

I have played here multiple times. The fairways and greens are in great condition considering the cost to play. By far a great value, and will be back again.

Latest Round at General Olds

The most enjoyable part was the group I was with. The pace of play was extremely slow for the first nine holes because we were the first group to follow a junior tournament. Thereafter, the pace of play picked up quite considerably. The course layout has always been very attractive to me and quite challenging for my level of play. The staff was friendly and the hot deal price was quite attractive. The greens rolled pretty well. Overall, it was a pleasant afternoon.

enjoy the doglegs

Layout is nicely rolling, some minor elevation changes. Almost all holes have some sort of dogleg. Greens were really good, as were fairways and tees. A bit scruffy after the primary rough but you shouldn't be there. Also a lot of trees frame the holes to add to the challenge. Condition of sand bunkers also very good. Would be happy to play here again.

This is a fun course

Although the greens were punched the previous Tuesday the green rolled surprising true. The course was in great shape and played a little long because of the direction of the wind. Definitely a great price to play this course.

The course is very challenging from the tips. For a municipal, it's in very good shape. Greens are fast and true. Plenty of risk-reward holes to play it safe or go for it. Friendly pro shop and good food service as well as a bar. For under $50 it's a real value.
