What happened to this course ???

All 18 greens were in horrible condition - aeration holes were big and bare spots/diseases can be found on most if not all 18 greens. Some spots on fairways were scalped to dirt level and weeds are prominent throughout the course. Waste of money to play……

Poor Condition

I played this course in May last year and it was fine , this year I can not believe how a course can be let to get in this condition, it’s probably the worst tees and greens i have had the misfortune to play on , you could not pay me enough to play there again in fact I would appreciate it if I can have our fee refunded.

Is a nice course when not aerated and well watered

Fairways and roughs in fair shape (needed more water), sand traps hard packed with very little sand (need deep raked), greens recently aerated and heavily sanded (needing a lot of water). Nice layout and could be more challenging if properly watered and the sand traps properly maintained.

First Time Playing

Kings Ridge Sunday Golf

The course was in really bad condition. They close the front 9, so we have to play the same back 9 twice. The greens are unplayable. They need a lot of work.

DONT GOLF HERE

Course has seen better days. Conditions are in terrible shape, only good greens that are playable were the par 3s. Rest of greens were sand and bare. Tee boxes had no grass. Only good thing were fairways, not worth the “members rate” of $60. Also you are playing the back 9 twice. Ranger came to us after the 16th hole telling us the front 9 was open but “it’s in worse shape than the back 9”.

$25-$30 course at best. Would stay far away until conditions get better.

Never as it seems

The last two times I’ve played this course, I was disappointed.

First time, they never told us there was a tournament so when we hit 10, we had to wait until everyone in tournament teed off.

Yesterday, when we reached 10 we found out that we were only allowed to play the front nine over and when we got to one we had a long wait.

Had I known each time what the situation was I would not have played the course.

Fool me once, fool me twice. You won’t get the opportunity a third time.

Course needs help

It would be nice if and when you do an aerification that you let players know that you are closing one side and need to play the same 9-holes over again, with no starter, and the players making the turn complicate the issue. Just get the money and let the players figure it out on their own. Great management.

Do not play here

This is my first time ever writing a review on golf now and I use to love this course. It’s the worst course I’ve played in a very long time. Please do not waste your money.

What a disappointment

What used to be a great course that was taken care of has turned into an absolute joke of a “golf course”. It’s really sad actually! Some of the greens were in solid shape with a few rough patches, but then the greens keeper would put the holes in the worst kept spots on the whole green!?!? I’ve never seen something like it. A course that was worth $50 every time for the last 2-3 years has (out of nowhere) turned into the worst kept course in the area now. Shame! I can’t imagine how members must feel.
