Marshall’s needed!

Anytime you can GOLF it’s always a great day! Unfortunately today they ran out of carts n that had a lot of us an hour behind. They need more Marshall’s to push slow groups. Course is in fair conditions but layout is tuff if you’re not accurate.

Tough greens

This is a very nice course, just a bit tough today. The greens have not yet recovered from being aerated. They were slow and inconsistent and the ball was still bouncing , not running true. But, don’t let this sound like a horrible review. Most of the course was in excellent shape. The fairways were great for Late summer. The tee boxes were decent too. I would love to see a few trees trimmed but they are a huge part of the charm and difficulty, narrow tree line fairways.

Course was fine, my game wasn’t. We had to wait on several holes so it made for a long day. All in all it was a fun day.

Revisit the Island

Came back for a round with a friend. Course still the same, slow pace for a wed am. Greens ok, tees worn and fairways too wet. But it’s been that way forever so why get upset.

It’s a well played muni with decent greens and minimal roll in the fairways.

That’s the Island.

Beautiful sycamores

A pleasure to golf here even in 100 degree heat. It's a fun, challenging course with lots of trees and water to navigate. I'll be back!

Course played great after 10 years

Hadn’t played Cherry since the re-design. The trees have grown to make it much more of a visual challenge. Condition was pretty lush with access to water. The whole course was a pleasure to play.

Habitually overbooking

I’m sad to write this review because I loved this course two years ago but it’s really gone downhill. I’ve given it multiple more chances but have been faced with disappointment yet again. The first hole takes most people at least 10 min to finish and yet they book tee times less than 5 min apart. This time and the time before that they didn’t have carts ready when I checked in. There was a backup on hole 1 and when you’re starting behind schedule expect a 5+ hour round. And for how much they overbook you don’t see that money going into the course, crab grass everywhere on fairways and greens. If this was the only time I wouldn’t be writing this review but it has been a constant, won’t be coming here again.
