avoid Golfnow booking

made tee times on BentCreek website. Mistake, because Golfnow is their booking agent and they do prepaid and you are unable to adjust your rate at the course to senior rate. Everything else was excellent from the staff to the course.

Good value

First time playing this course. Fairways and greens were in good condition. Layout was fun to play. I did not experience the bunkers so I can’t comment on condition of sand. Due to rain for several days earlier carts were limited to cart paths only. Cart paths can use some improvements and extensions. Overall, I would recommend.

Had fun

The greens were pretty hard, and were rolling pretty slow. We were warned of the greens being shaggy from the gentleman in the pro shop before starting our round (because the rain received the week prior was preventing some mowing). Decent pace of play, and fun track!
