DarkHorse Golf Club

Friendly staff, great layout.

The sand traps have beautiful white sand in them,

but compacted. Bounced my 60 degree wedge like skipping rocks!

Come on guys, fluff yer sand a little!

Started with the starte bumping our tee time up 10 minutes. Told me we had a 12:00 start when in fact it was 12:10 on golf now. So straight to the tee we went. The sand traps were so bad. They have all this great sand in them but the water in them made them ALL hard pan. Not sure why the grounds crew hasn’t done anything to keep the traps in half way decent order…

I have played this course a lot over the years and I love the layout, but since the new owner took over and put in the new sand traps, which they were so proud of in the beginning, they’re not in great shape now, weeds are growing in the sand traps. Weeds, all around a lot of the sand traps. Not a good look, especially for the price they charge to play out there. Also, the special they offer is smoke and mirrors. Two for $99 is nice but then they get you for an extra $15 to play the weekend.

Have played at darkhorse numerous times in past 6 years. Course condition great. No ball washers or spike cleaners, no water on course,

No marshall, Slow Play took almost 5 hours. midweek. ground crew oblivious to players hitting into them . traps ok but overgrowth needs trimming, cart barriers overdone. driving range tee boxes are neglected now- No pro shop, Something has changed. Lots of homes in construction so maybe course thinking private opportunity on the horizon.

Loved the course layout and views. Course was over-watered in and around the greens. Sand traps were inconsistent, some overgrown some good, and some wet and muddy. No pro shop. Saw the beverage cart on the third hole and never again. Water was nearly non-existent for players. At the turn there was a food truck, but the young lady who we assume was manning the truck was busy on her phone and told us if we wanted anything to get it from the beverage cart, which we never saw on the back nine.

The staff on hand was nice. Food facilities were closed overall Course condition average Greensboro punched kind of slow and inconsistent. Worst part of the course of the sand traps a rack so much about the new sand and the reconditioning of the traps. They’ve let them go. There’s weeds in the traps weeds around the traps. The traps are very seldom right or maintained from the look of it From what the course was to where it’s at it’s gone down the ranking levels in my mind.

The new ownership have turned this course into the best location by a mile. Price is great and the course is in amazing shape. Hats off.

Great layout! Bunkers need a little more care. Fairways were good with a nice roll-out. Greens were in good shape...still can't believe that golfers can't repair their divot. Warm up on mats. Great targets on range.

GPS on comfortable carts is nice!

Take the drive up there. It's worth it!!

Booked a 740 am tee time, guy who checked us in told me it was for 730 (he was wrong) so we didn't get a chance to warm up at all.

Then, when we forgot something in our car and attempted to drive the cart in the parking lot, the same dude screams at me and says the carts aren't allowed in the parking lot. I told him I've never seen a course not allow this before, and he said it's because people leave their carts in the lot, which I've never done or seen. What a way to start the round!

Then, on 16, the course maintenance people were working on a sand trap, their carts in the middle of the fairway. It didn't even cross their mind to move their carts so we could play the hole and not hit their carts. They finish up their work on 16, and go right to 17 and do the same thing.

Then, on 18, what looked like the course manager and a maintenance person were working on some irrigation/drainage issue in the middle of the hole, as we tried to play the hole around them.

It's a first world problem, but this was literally the worst golf experience I think I've ever had. From the rudeness and incompetence of the guy in the shop to the clueless maintenance people, this place doesn't seem like they care if you're there or not despite paying $85 to play their muddy course.

It's a shame because this course used to be a gem with an actual clubhouse. It's a great design with beautiful homes everywhere. But whoever owns it now is running it into the ground and it seems they couldn't care less about providing a good experience to golfers. I won't be returning until they get their act together.

My title says it all. I absolutely loved this course. It was both beautiful and challenging. I can’t wait to play it again.

Brought my cousin from SD and his daughter, he hadn't played in a year and it was her first time playing so we got there early to warmup. Got to the course: no range balls.

Beautiful Top Tracer, covered range... no range balls.

Then, no carts. Carts weren't ready until 25 minutes after our T-time. We did get to witness a fight between an employee and a group that just finished.

It's not exactly the employees fault, they should just get more carts. And hire some staff to collect range balls. Problem solvd.

Seems like bunkers haven’t been tended to in months. A little TLC would go along way. Nice lay out. Would be hard to beat if they had appropriate bathrooms and clubhouse. Range was closed as they had no balls. No on course ball washers or yardage markers. Seems like ownership is cutting corners on maintenance, facilities, and staff.
