Great layout but condition has been poor in 2023

I've played here for years. I have seen it in great shape in previous years but in 2023, it has not been good. Greens have been terribly slow, bumpy and some with no grass. The greens not only vary in difference from 9 to 9 but from hole to hole. The fairways are hit and miss with some good grass and others with no grass. Every time we play we have to play using lift, clean and place because it can be saturated from over watering. I will continue to play at Heron because of proximity but I really hope they get their act together with the condition of this once fine course.

I have read some of the ratings people have left and it makes wonder if some people even know what a nicely conditioned course is.

The employees are nice as well as the cart girls.

This is my honest assessment as of this day in October 2023. All my friends feel the same as I do.

Hole-in-One at a Great Golf Course

Have never been disappointed golfing at Heron Creek. The course is always in great condition, at a fair price with the Big Summer Card. We thoroughly enjoyed our round there. It was particularly special for me, getting a hole-in-one at the #3 hole on the Creek Course. We played the Marsh-Creek combo of the three 9's available. In addition to a fun golf course, Heron Creek also has an excellent practice facility that is included with the greens fee. The restaurant is also excellent, with lots of choices at a reasonable cost. I only wish the course was closer to where I live (it's about a 45 minute ride).

Overrated

The corse condition was good. No way a 4.5 rating ! The greens are slow, no GPS many blind shots ! Most shots into green are blind ! You rarely will get a view of green on approach shots.

Problem at the turn

With three nines there always seems to be a problem at the turn. At this round we were approached by two rangers who told us we had to be at the turn by 2:10 , we arrived at 2:00 and found 4 foursomes and no rangers, we asked them we they were coming from and the said the stopped for lunch and were told to go to this nine? There seems to be a lot of rangers here but they don’t seem to do anything.
