Blue Sky newbie

We chose this course from a few others we haven't played in a while (or ever for me) and the layout was a bit confusing. The staff were nice and the course was fun. A few greens were in bad shape but it was nice. Turns out they had a party going in that evening so got some music at the end of the evening lol.

Good Layout, Sprinkler Malfunction?

First time playing this course and we enjoyed it for the most part. We got rained on hard and an hour later the greens were clear of water, which was very nice. They have an excellent TopGolf style driving range with ball tracers. Only issue we had was on the tenth hole the sprinkler system turned on and soaked our entire golf cart. Not sure why it came on at 4:30 in the afternoon?

Overbooked

Even with many open spots on GolfNow, the course was extremely overbooked. Just my wife and I playing, which she plays 2x a year and extremely slow paced, and we still had to wait 20-30 minutes to hit. Left after the 13th hole as the waiting got to the point where it was no longer fun. The upgrades to the amenities are a plus with a Top Golf type driving range. I would go back during off hours in the week since it’s a cheaper option but would recommend to avoid on the weekends unless you sneak a 24 pack of cold beers in.

Way over priced for the conditions of the course. Should definitely drop the price while fixing the course. I won’t be back to play there until the price drops way down. I play every Sunday at different courses and this one by far is the worst I’ve played. I feel I got ripped off by paying this amount.

Always a fun course to play. Holes 2 and 3 are under construction but they make up for it by giving every golfer a $25 voucher for the next time. Also, great food and service at the bar.

Let them finish

Going back to Mill Cove, the course has a very nice layout. Currently Blue Sky has very nice amenities, driving range, staff, restaurant, however, the course renovations need to be completed. There are a few greens that you’re told about upfront that are being worked on, however, there are several other greens that really need to be worked on. Just let them finish renovations. I feel some of the rough and outlying playing areas of the course also need attention.

This track has always been great to play. Unfortunately the greens have gone south at blue sky. For 40 dollars or more I want greens I can putt on. There is sod patches and complete dead spots on each hole. Maybe 2 or three greens were okay. Makes it hard to putt consistently when each green is different.

Fun Times at Blie Sky

The course is being rehabbed so there were a couple of holes that are temporary. There is currently lots of sand on the greens so putting is unpredictable. However we had fun and we can certainly see that this course is going tp have a bright future.

This will be it for a while

Simply, all the greens are dirt. Many of the tee boxes are dirt. Most of the fairways are okay with grass. I will not be back anytime soon. The condition of the course is not a priority and this has been a theme for years.

Worst greens I’ve ever seen

For the fee ($24) on a Monday, it’s not bad to get a round of golf in. But holy crap, those greens were by far the worst I’ve ever encountered. 10 ft putts reminiscent of the Plinko game on The Price Is Right. For that alone, I would not recommend this course, but it is definitely not the only thing wrong here. There is no management running the pace of play, every hole is extremely close to the next, and the fact that every green looked like there was a ton of sand sprayed green made this an extremely unpleasant experience. 1/10 would not recommend.
