Great Layout but needs bunker & cart path renovation

Great layout and staff excellent at every contact.

New golf carts are very nice but GPS doesn’t show each hole physical layout, just pin yardage, front & back yardage..basically Golf Buddy.

They need to remove and re-asphalt cart paths or their new carts won’t last long.

Gone diwnhill

Others have said it here but it’s been a number of years since I played here and it’s clear they aren’t spending enough money to maintain this course. I have no idea why because it certainly gets enough play and they charge like it’s a premium course. Burned out fairways, sand traps “under repair” and scalped greens. It’s sad because the layout is pretty solid.

First Time Playing

Great course

The course overall was great. The only issues I had were with others playing the course. Now to be fair there was an outing just prior to my tee time but it's quite shocking to see the lack of respect people have for a golf course. There were CRATERS all over the greens. Like I've seen plenty of pivots in my time but I think me and the people I was paired with spent more time repairing marks on the greens from other players than we did actually putting. The lack of respect from others was absolutely insane

Disappointing Round

I have played at Whisper Creek many times over the last ten years. This is the most disappointing visit I have ever had there. The course conditions were so bad, and the course really appeared to be neglected. Greens very poor, some cut, some not, some badly scalped. Some previous bunkers are now "Ground Under Repair" because of neglect. And at $74, we aspected as so much better. We will not be back there again. Very disappointed.

Better shape than a few weeks back

Greens were a bit slow, but besides that the course was in very nice shape.

A bit of rain lately surely helped.

New carts with GPS keeping golfers away from critical ares no doubt helps. Areas around the greens were in nice shape for that critical chip. Nice work. Sand traps also in nicer shape than a few weeks back.

First Time Playing

Nice Sunday Afternoon

Played 18 holes for the first time at this course. The conditions were very good but some of the greens were a bit worn but very playable. A very playable course for beginners to intermediate but anyone else that truly qualifies to play from the back tees would crush it. My only complaint which was strange and was said by the starter. I was playing with a threesome and I had a cart all to myself and the starter said”I am gonna let this go but just this time. Since you’re playing in a cart by yourself I will not charge you for not having another rider.” I thought he was joking but he was serious. Now I played with a mom and son and another single that had his own cart. He plays the course regularly since he is retired and he said he is not charged for not having another person in his cart. In over 50 years of playing golf this was a first and so odd. And i will never go back. Now I give the starter kudos for managing the pace of play but he was totally out of line plus he has no authority to do this.

Only play with a discount.

Only play here on discount off Golf Now. Greens are garbage, rough is 5 inches high, grass clippings everywhere. Golf carts had zero mix for fixing divots. (Up keep of the course is not good.) But they did upgrade their golf carts…probably won’t be coming back.

The course needs attention

I’ve only played here one time many years ago. I was surprised by the overall condition of the course. The bunkers had grass in them and very little sand. The fairways were long- kind of like my lawn at home. Greens were on the slow side but okay. The pace of play was 5 hours which is unacceptable. Overall, I was very disappointed and won’t go back. It’s pretty obvious that the management doesn’t have the resources to keep the course in good shape.
