Great deal for a nice course

We got a really good deal to play this course for the second time and that made it a worthwhile drive . The staff was outstanding and very friendly. Course was in pretty good condition though fairways were very spongy and too wet. Pace of play was a bit slow and this was due to too many twosomes (on the back 9) that should have been paired up to improve the pace. Did see some rangers riding around but they didn’t seem to do anything.

Wet and Windy

The course seems a little better than last year but still a lesser level than a few years ago. Lots of weeds where flowers used to be planted and all the traps for one hole are grown over and considered ground under repair.

The course conditions have worsened from when I played a few years ago. There are some completely overgrown bunkers which is the biggest complaint I have.

Fantastic shape

This course is fantastic, greens Fairways bunkers all very good. I'll play it again for sure. I realize someone gave it a very bad reading and Review complaining that one of the bunkers had weeds in it. Folks that was a waste bunker. If you play from the properties and there are a lot of them you'll have a great time.

Could be better

Course needed watering and traps need to be taken care of. I've been playing here since they opened. And lately it seems like they don't care about the condition of the corse. But I'm not complaining too much for $35.

What happened!!

We used to really enjoy this course. I heard a different management group took over the course. If this is true, fire that group. This course is in bad shape. We will not be back unless we hear course is on much better shape.

Good value

The course itself is laid out nice but the conditions of the greens and bunkers were horrible. Cart paths need to be repaired, full of pot holes.

Disappointed

The experience at whisper creek was very disappointing. I been here many times over the years and really loved this course. However it’s very unfortunate where it is today. Staff and layout are wonderful. Conditions were very rough. Dandelions growing in fairways. Tee boxes very rough and greens were very spotty at best. I hope it gets back to being an excellent place to play
