Echelon Golf Club

This is an amazing track to play. The views are amazing and the elevation changes are a bear to deal with but manageable if you take your time and think. Definitely will play again.

Second time playing this course. The course was in tournament condition. Fairways were lush. A true test for golfers at all levels. I will definitely play this course again.

Course is absolutely beautiful but the slope rating probably could be higher! This course was a pleasure to play! Semi private as well

Hard course. Ups and downs but views are great. Need to be in good shape for this course

THEY REALLY NEED A GOLF RANGER TO KEEP THE PACE OF PLAY MOVING

This course is in beautiful shape. The tee boxes are in nice shape and I found the yardage markers to be quite accurate. The greens were in nice shape but had a few that had slightly more ball marks than others. The greens rolled true. There were some bunkers that were in need of sand. The fairways were in excellent shape. This is a very challenging layout which I would strongly recommend to the intermediate golfer on up. I think a beginner might get disheartened with the difficulty. The cost is a bit elevated but worth it.

I've played this course a few dozen times and I think this last time was my last .

The course is stunningly beautiful but frustrating in that it seems to get the least out of what it was given to work with. Holes 1 through 8 and 16-18 are incredible and rival any stretch in the area but the rest are pretty unenjoyable to play.

Hole 9 from the blues is a 430 par 4 from the blues and easily plays 50-60 yards uphill. Your second shot is mostly blind and you're almost definitely hitting off a sloped lie - fun!

Hole 10 is straight down hill and once again there isn't really a flat spot to land the ball - you're forced to hit a short wedge off a downslope into a green far below you with a hazard directly behind and sand in front.

Hole 11 is a 3-shot par 5 that for some reason has a bunker 245 yards straight out. So you either hit a draw into a tight fairway with a hazard on the left or hit a par 3 to stay short of the trap - all so you can hit a lay up 5-7 iron on your second shot?

Holes 12 and 14 are more of the same - straight up and down, blind shots into greens, no real flat spots to land the ball, bunkers in dumb places. The green on 14 is a bit ridiculous as well with a huge spine that splits the green.

On top of all that, the greens are soaked 24/7 pretty much every day between April and October which makes every single wedge plug. Even 25-30 yard pitch shots leave an impression and check up. You basically have to land the ball inside of 5-6 feet if you want to get close to the hole - forget thinking about spin / release / green contour. It just makes the course way less interesting and the greens like mine fields. They also seem to like to put a ton of flags within 4-5 paces of the fringe.

16/17/18 is a great finishing stretch.

One other thing - over the 30 rounds that I have played at this course I have never seen a ranger addressing pace of play so there are definitely 4+ hour rounds on the regular.

Overall, if you are just playing it once it's a great course but it's far too gimmicky for it to be a regular.

Outstanding course.

Obviously other people have realized. Pace of play an issue.

Cart path only-5.5 hour round.

Play the correct tees people!

The course overall is nice with the exception of the greens which were not in the best shape. Mostly the issue was ball marks and they were bumpy.

I am very fortunate to have this golf course 15 minutes from my front door. This course is in fabulous condition and is well maintained. The staff and restaurant are great! This is golf course would not be an easy walk as it has many elevation changes. The greens were receptive but fast. Overall great experience that I play at least once a month!

Course drains poorly, they’ll close the range and playing this course as cart path only can be exhausting due to the elevation changes.

Sand traps had not been raked, many washed out by previous days of rain. Greens had serious ball mark issues, and if you’re in the rough good luck in finding your ball.

I’d like to play it again after a few dry days. The course isn’t bad, it’s not the easiest, but it could be better maintained.

Challenging course in great condition. Tee boxes, greens, and traps were all near perfect.
