Short Round

I love this course. We only got to play the front 9 (twice) because of work on the back but it was still an enjoyable round. As with many courses this year the fairways are a bit thin but the greens are in pretty good condition. The staff at the Pro-Shop is always amazing and friendly!!

Nice Midweek Round

Pace of play was fantastic and the course conditions were pretty good for this time of year. It was a wet and mucky day but a great day for a Father/Son round of golf. I have played here before and look forward to the warmer weather and course conditions improving (as they always do).

Pretty Good for Winter

Fairways are brown but the dormant grass still provides a good base for shots. Rough was very reasonable. Greens are in good condition and roll well. The golfers aren't taking the bunkers, as usual and not the course's fault, so you may have to move your ball in the bunker to get a fair lie. Plea to my fellow golfers...rake your bunker mess as well as everything else you can reach! It takes less than a minute

Impressive greens

Haven’t play this course for over 10 years. Gave it a try for the rate that I paid for. Greens are impressive. Tee boxes are in good/fantastic shape. Fairway are good. Some thin spot here and there but don’t expect growth for this time of year. For $55 or less, worth pay to play.

Great conditions

Have played Forest Greens many, many times over the last few years. I have never seen it in better condition. Greens? Immaculate! Fairways? Thick and green, but not long. Tees? Tees? Very nice. Kudos to the maintenance team. I love the layout as well. Plenty of dog legs and elevation changes. All in all, a great course, beautiful weather, and good pace of play; not to boast but I corrected a swing flaw causing me to push many shots to the right. Check out Forest Greens. You won’t be disappointed.

Great Staff/Nice Course

Always a nice round here. As with many courses this time of year, it was recently aerated so the putting was a bit challenging but all in all an extremely enjoyable round of golf.

Fun Yet Challenging

We always enjoy playing this course. The staff is fantastic, and the course was in very good condition. For a Saturday afternoon the pace was much better than expected. All in all, a great day of golf.

Forest Greens

I love the course layout. The grass is in good shape but after spending big bucks to redo the sand traps, they have not kept them up like they should. Not a fan of their $62 rack rate, but better deals can be found.

A Great Challenge

The course was in very good shape, especially for August. It was great to play a course where you could hit out of the soft sand and not worry about rocks ruining your wedge. There are a decent number of traps and if you don’t keep your ball in the fairway, you will be punished! I enjoyed the challenging layout, even though it negatively affected my score. Ha! The starter let us tee off early, allowing my husband and I play as a twosome since they had a cancellation. We really appreciated this, as we could play music while we played and enjoy time together.

Good greens, meh fairways

The greens were in very good condition. Fairly fast and firm but would still hold a good approach. The fairways at FG are always late coming in due to the bermuda grass but they really haven't filled in well this year. I had a number of sketchy lies in the fairway. Rough was not too penal. The bunkers now have nice, soft white sand in them which is great. The problem is players not even attempting to rake them...not the courses fault. Come on people, we're better than that! I'll def play Forest Greens again.
