back 9 very challenging
Well kept course, better dial in your swing on front 9 - back nine gets challenging. Fun course!
Timber Lakes Golf Course
Given it was a cloudy cold day and a very limited amount of golfers,there were leaves all over the greens and fairways and no one working the course. If a winter rate was available, the conditions would have been acceptable. Again I understand that due to the lack of golfers, it was not cost effective to have workers. Offer a winter rate.
Bad shape
The course needs some TLC. Any shot hit off the fairway and the next time you were hitting off deadpan 75% of the time. Even the fairways were burnt out. It hasn't been that dry in the area so I'm not for sure what exactly the issue is. The greens were in decent shape but if you're charging $58 on the weekend the course should reflect that. Otherwise, drop the price.
On top of that (and this isn't just a Timber Lakes problem) they need a course Ranger to speed up play. We got stuck behind a slow 5 some and what should have been a 3 1/2 hour round turned into 4 1/2 hours. 5 somes are a joke unless you've got 5 people who can play or you're scrambling. These people were doing neither.
Greens a little shaggy
The greens were a little shaggy. Seems like they needed to be cut. Several of the tee boxes, it was almost impossible to put the tee in the ground.
Nice course , clubhouse a mess
Great day of golf if you come only for golf. Greens and T boxes great condition, appreciated. Club house was a joke. One person checking us in and was the bar person. Cash only? Most people don’t carry cash. No water on the course. Could not get water on the turn, no staff. Bring lots of water and patience walking into the club house. One person working.
Great course
Great course ,last four holes are a challenge .
Course and greens where in great shape.
Excellent Conditions
I’ve played this course many times. Very challenging for my abilities, especially the back 9. The fairways and greens were in excellent shape and you can’t beat the value.
I am from the Staunton area, and Timber Lakes is one of my favorite courses to play. Unfortunately, I strongly believe that they have priced themselves out of the market for the course and the amenities that they have to offer for most golfers in the area.
