2 long

We play Good Pond a couple times a year and it would be nice if they had a set of T boxes between the whites and blues or move the whites up The whites and blues are on the same box Most par 4's you are about 160-180 out on your second shot and on number 10 a par 5 its driver 3 wood 6 iron The only other choice are the red T's not playing them too short plus well you know. Who enjoys driver wood or long iron all day long if your long off the T play the blues But if your drive is around 220-235 your going to be chipping a lot I gave course layout 1 star for this reason i would like to play here more but I like to enjoy my round also.

Always A Great Experience

Course has picturesque views from most all tees, fairways or greens with excellent putting greens. Course offers a Challenging layout from all tee boxes. Very good reasonably priced food is in the onsite grill. It is my favorite course to play and I drive 35 minutes one way to get there.

Great Course with Some Difficulty

Looked around my area for a course I had not played before and saw the reviews for this course. I was surprised how well maintained and upkept the course was. Greens looked like they might be slow but were pretty quick. The greens were a little hard but made the course a bit more difficult as the tee shots weren't too demanding and there are areas you can miss and be fine. As a scratch golfer I played from the black tees and really enjoyed the round. I would recommend going out and playing this course. I'm sure I'll go back and play again in the future.

Great course for all level of golfers

This was my first time playing and I enjoyed it! The course was in great shape and it played excellent. My only complaint is there was no starter so we had to wait to tee off 15 minutes after our tee time but after we got moving it was a good pace of play

Excellent course

Very well conditioned course with beautiful views of the lake. It’s kind of neat how you are seeing the lake on nearly every hole but you only go over a finger of the lake on one par three shot. Greens were fast and true.

Love playing here!

The course was in great shape. We had a threesome and we finished in 3 and a half hours. The greens were almost perfect. They just need a little more time to recover from latest maintenance.

Way to long for women....

Good solid $30 track......except for women way to long.....My wife hated it driver 3 wood and she can can't get home on par 4 and she hits it further then the average women......women should have an option at 4700 to 4900 to play from not 5300 or mens senior tee is on the same box.....old school......fairways were nice greens for this price not so much.....the shop had nothing but kids running it....hmmm not a great first impression....
