Enjoyable round

This is not a highly marketed course, but honestly it’s in better shape than some of the big name courses. It’s a good opening round for you golf weekend. Greens were fast and true. It’s not Caledonia or Barefoot, but I think most golfers can and will enjoy it.

Played before afternoon flight

Course was super convenient. Across from airport. Played 18 and then headed to airport. Course was priced fair. Greens rolled well but course overall could use a little tlc. Scottish/Australian starter/ranger was the best. Very informative and kept pace moving. Will be back.

Wait, wait wait

The course was OK. The pace of play was glacial. Unlikely I’d play this again due to no attempt to move slow players. This continues to be the #1 complaint about muni golf - S-L-O-W play.

My day at Whispering Pines

Very friendly staff. Good conditions for this time of year. Greens very fast. Many pretty holes with nice vistas. Fringe of greens soft and will trap the ball. Typical wooly grass not seen in northern play. Overall a very nice day.

A nice challenge

My husband and I played this course for the first time. It was challenging - a little long for me, and quite a bit of water. Still, we enjoyed our round.
