Little bit rough.

I have played this course quite a bit. The greens are in very bad shape at this time. The fairways are fine, but just off them the grass is mowed shorter than the fairways. The course needs a few weeks or a month without play so they can recover the greens.

Ranger

We play here often and enjoy the golf course. Yesterday was something I have not experienced in 45 years of playing golf. We waited on every shot which is normal and had no issues with. The ranger followed us from the 7th to the 9 hole. He saw us waiting but after the 9th hole, he told us we needed to keep up with the group in front of us and pointed to the 10th hole. We informed him that was not the group in front of us. We went by the snack bar and sure enough the group was in front of us were there also. We got what we needed and then went to the 10th. We talked with the group In front of us for 8 minutes before they could tee off. We then waited 14 minutes before we could tee off. We waited 11 minutes in the fairway before we could hit approach shots. Then basically the same on the 11th hole. The ranger approached us on the 11th green lecturing us again. Sound like someone needs to be trained.

Terrible

Dont waste your time or money playing here for at least another 2 months or so. That is if they plan on taking care of the greens. Practice green is horrible and almost every green on the course is the same. Lots of patches and brown spots. Really sandy and the proshop failed to mention course conditions before paying.

Not worth playing

Where do I start?!?! Was charged a full round fee just for a rider. Practice green is in horrible shape and the driving range is all mats. The greens were very rough. Lots of sand and brown patches everywhere. Hole 11 literally had a 4x10 patch in the middle of the green from sod. The course doesn't have any water coolers around, nor does it have a beverage cart.

Pace of play was good and so were the fairways. Only good thing I can say about today's round is that the golf cart did its job.

Greens are more sand than grass

This course is in terrible condition. The greens are mostly green sand to disguise the fact there is no grass. Tee boxes also in poor condition. Pace of play also poor 4 1/2 hours. Would definitely not recommend. Lots of work needed to call this a golf course.

Poor Cource conditions

The fairways are mostly in good conditions. Bunkers are in terrible condition. Dirt not sand. Greens are in the poorest condition possible. Mostly sand with little grass

Club house is nice. Staff is very unfriendly and rude. I would not recommend Buffalo Creek to anyone,

Many of the greens are in rough shape. It appears they are trying to address them but while in its current condition the cost should be reduced.

Wuff

The pace is awful and the greens are third world. Not sure how people pay money to play here. Great layout but they clearly don’t know how to take care of a golf course.

This Course Needs Some Serious Help!

Would I recommend this course to a friend? - I would recommend for them not to play it.

Guantanamo Bay likely has nicer greens.
