You get what you pay
Entire course could use a lot of TLC, but then again with how expensive golf is nowadays you get what you pay.
Fun course for the money
Fairways a little rough but nice course and they are about to airrate the greens , so check ahead
Greens fantastic shape!
Played on a Wednesday at 10:30 AM
Course was not too busy, generous fairways but watch out for potholes and bumps and gopher holes.
Greens were outstanding. Would recommend for value conscious golfers.
Willowick
I used to play twilight here after work some twenty years ago. I believe the course is now in much better condition while maintaining the original characteristics of the course. The starter (Brian) was very friendly and made feel at home. I would love to come back to play over and over again.
Well maintained greens, not much airflow in restroom
Well maintained greens.
Greenskeeper is doing a great job.
Pro shop staff is friendly.
There is not much airflow in restroom.
It smells.
Awful course go anywhere else
Layout is horrible course is in awful condition fairways are more dirt than they are grass.
If you can find the money, kill all the gophers. Re-level the fairways to eliminate the thousands of gopher hills and depressions. Put down new turf..
I love this old course and it deserves to be restored. Greens are good but slow.
