Greens are in terrible shape, fairways are in decent shape. Course needs some work to be charging the amount they charge for an early tee time.

Short easy course

The course is short and not very difficult. The staff was not friendly at all upon check in. For $50 a round, you can get much more value elsewhere.

fun round with strangers

the course needs some improvement and seems that they are trying to do that now. The greens were just okay and the tee boxes needed some work. The layout was fun and forgiving. I would recommend playing this course but just know it's not like it is in the pictures.

Not bad but nothing to write home about

Course is wide open, and relatively short. This makes you feel waaay better than you actually are. Greens need some love, but for the right price it's not horrible

18th Hole

Had a very great round till I teed of on 18. Was disappointed that it was car path only. Made it difficult to finish the round. Made the place very slow. I was told it was the courses signature hole.

Just the worst!

So this place is just horrible. We went a week before and got rained out. So they gave us rain checks.... kinda. They said since only one person made the tee time they had to put all three on his account. We re scheduled and confirmed that we could use out rain checks for the tee time we requested. SEVERAL times. We show up and they wanted 50 EXTRA to play and super rude about it. We played the course it it was just garbage. Greens have large patches of grass just eaten up and bunkers were hard. Fairways were ok. I just can’t believe they wanted so much to play here. I’m local and play a lot and won’t be back!

Can’t believe their thinking!

Have been playing here for many years including post BSky era. Was tickled when Hampton group bought it and renovated it. Been playing there regularly, couple times a week, including weekend. But recently found out , to my surprise while checking in that the prices on weekend mornings have gone up almost $20 a round, they call it flex-pricing. Over $60 dollars have priced them off my list to play as well as everyone in our regular group. It’s sad that they have done this, I’m sure I’m not the only one whom have sworn off this place due to their insistence of try to make a few more $$$ at the expense of many longtime loyal customers!

For this kind of $$$ I expect a whole lot more! There are to many other courses for $40-$50 that I will be play to play regularly!

Overpriced

I have played Blue Sky a handful of times. The renovated clubhouse and new practice facilities are a nice addition. It’s a shame that golfers have to hit off of mats.

It has never been a well manicured golf course tee to green, but today was better than what it has been in the past. Green were punched about 2 weeks ago. They were still pretty bumpy. Fairways are much better than what they used to be. There are still some spots that are undesirable, but not a ton. I did not find a bunker today, so comments on them. For $65 I would have wanted a bit more. Even for a Sunday morning tee time, that’s about $20-30 too much for this golf course in my opinion. I’d love to come back when the greens are smoother, but would still not want to pay $65.

With all that said, pace of play was great. Played in 3 1/2 hours. Staff was friendly. Fun layout.

Bad greens for $72

Worst greens I have ever played on. I can understand punching holes in the greens, but don't charge $72. The only good thing was pace of play.

Golf-like experience

I did it again... Let’s blame the weather, timing, whatever? With my low expectations from my 1st experience, I felt more overall satisfied with the experience. But you know how some golf courses have kitchens and others have grab-n-go food? Well this place is neither of those two things. This is a restaurant with a golf course. This is not a golf course. Its mot well maintained and there are no golf course employees anywhere. There are restaurant employees, like the bartender who takes your money and gives you a cart key. There are multiple tee boxes and starting tees next to each other. It can get confusing with nobody keeping order. Very often an otherwise playable ball can be on the fairway of another home. 5 wood, 175 yards out, left it short dead center front of the green, then realized it was the wrong green....

Ohh well, still felt good! Enjoyed staying and dry and hitting balls, not quite golfing, but another option for a golf-like experience like TopGolf or putt-putt or something?
