Hot day for golf

I will give an honest review. The course is in fairly good shape. It is bone dry and the greens are very firm and grainy just as I remember. I am going to provide some free information that will back up the following statement, The course is massively overpriced. Here are some prices of other courses that I have played and the rack rate for Goose Pond Colony Course.

Point Mallard. $40.00

Blackberry Trail. 45.00

Cypress Lakes. 45,00

Joe Wheeler. 39.00

Eagle’s Nest. 37.00

Southern Gayle’s. 42,00

Goose Pond Colony. 65.00

I hope everybody uses this information for what it is worth. Goose Pond is a $45.00 golf course and the public is being ripped off.

Challenging greens

We play at Goose Pond 4-5 times a year and it is always really good. The greens seem to be very firm on approach shots but they give a true roll with the putter. At nearly 60 years old the length of the course is plenty long for me from the white tees. The staff is always friendly and I would recommend Goose Pond Lake course to anyone in north Alabama.

Goose Pond Colony 5-29-2024

The course was in great shape. Fairway grass was nice to hit off of and the tee boxes and greens were also in good shape. I always enjoy playing Goose Pond (Lake Course). The scenery is beautiful, and the course defends itself very well. It does not surrender. You have to beat it fair and square. I used Golf Now/Golf Pass Hot Deal, and my group was able to play for $23.00 each. Thank you, Goose Pond, and thank you Golf Now/Golf Pass.

Good layout, Great value

I was pleasantly surprised by Goose Pond Lake Course. I assumed from the deal I got through Golf Now that it probably wouldn't be much more than a decent goat track given today's insane rates most courses charge. But that was a bad assumption. The course was in good condition and had a decent layout with lots of trees/water/elevation changes. Though the pace of play slowed to a crawl on the back 9 due to a five some (which shouldn't be allowed) holding up multiple groups, I still finished in around 4.5hrs. I would definitely play there again if I get the chance and would recommend it to anyone looking for a decent challenge at a great value.

Excellent outing

The course is in great shape! I’ve been playing here for over 20 years and today was the best shape ever!

The fairways are lush and the ball sit up well.

The greens were aerated and are still a tad

bumpy but rolled fast and true!

A must play course in the area

The greens and fairways were in great shape. This course will challenge your game yet it is fun to play. I had played the course in the spring and put it on the list of favorite courses to play in the area.
