Good Course

Good course and good pace of play. Would have gave it a 5star if the bar and grill opened sooner.

This is a great course. Deserved a higher rating in golf now

WOW Terrible shape !!!!

So, I didn't book the course through Golf Now, which it didn't of matter, course was in terrible shape, greens were dead, fairways were dead as well, some of them you couldn't even drive on.

Do better... $71 was a rip off for how the course was, even with the free-range balls , adjust accordingly .

Play it but won't be back .

Tough track

Fun layout. Some fairways large bar spots. Greens fast and true.Free warmup range. Your GPS will get confused as hole numbers have changed.

Rough shape

Purse is in rough shape. Greens have dirt on them where grass has died. Fairways also need water. Overpriced for the conditions of the course.

Love this course

I love this golf course. Slope and design of the course is one of, if not, my favorite of the surrounding counties. With them going private, I truly hope it doesn’t ruin the course and sincerely wish them well… I’ll certainly miss playing here.

Greens were fast for this time of the year (oddly, I still don’t think they’ve punched them), some frustrating tee boxes but those will be sorted out soon as they’ve already started aeration process on some of them, great carts, looove the course layout and slope difficulty. Little pricey by the standard greens cost, but I scored with a pretty sweet hot deal.

All great except for the pace.

Second time playing course this week. Still in great condition however the pace was extremely slow. First time experiencing this at Boones Trace. Hopefully it was a one off.

Great track!!

What a gem to find while traveling through Kentucky!! This track is located off the beaten path in a very quaint housing community. As soon as you drive in you know that you're going to get a great experience. Awesome golf carts with GPS, very smooth pace of play for the amount of people on the course and the staff was top notch. I was able to get a great price through Golf Now and wasn't disappointed. If you have a chance to golf here book a tee time!!
