Algonkian Golf Course

I had wanted to play this course for some time and was pleasantly surprised by the conditions and layout. We were initially stuck behind an impossibly slow foursome, but they finally let us play through after four holes and it was smooth sailing after that. Very straightforward course, no gimmicks, but still a challenge (at least to me) and a lot of fun.

slow play, marshall was there but didnt do anything

I play this couse alot and wouldn't if it wasn't a fair and fun tract well maintained. Personnel are always competent, helpful and friendly.

I enjoy this course and the pace of play has been good the last three rounds. The roughs were a bit a on the dry side the last time I played which made it difficult to get any spin on the ball. Tees and greens were in good shape.

This is one of the most boring courses I have ever played. The course is long, flat and straight for the most part. It is overrun with deer, and walking golfers who keep the pace of play VERY slow. It is very easy to shoot a ball into the fairway of a hole adjacent to the one you're playing. It's mostly back and forth and back again. The fairway grass is more like brillo and it is easy to dig divots in. It also doesn't allow much run for your balls once they hit the ground. The sand traps appear to be in the process of revision to white sand. That would be a big plus since the red, sand/clay mix in the majority of sand traps turns to really nasty mud that can stain good golf shoes if you play after it's rained.
