Tough Greens

No grass greens. Extremely fast and hard. You need to land short of the green in order to stay on the green. I guess they forgot to overseed the greens.

Nice Round of golf on a windy but nice day.

The course overall was in good shape for February. There was good grass in the fairways, and rough. The bunkers were a little rough. Pace of play on this day was very good around 4 hours and 10 minutes.

Good muni

Staff was totally friendly and joined three other people to make a foursome.We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the round. I have been playing Buffalo Creek for the past 30 years and have enjoyed every round of golf as the course has always been great.

BC

The front nine was pretty slow. I don't have the scorecard but going from a par 4 to a par 5 on the front nine, there needs to be a sign giving directions. We weren't the only one who made the turn to the right and played the wrong hole. Had to go back and then we skipped the long par 5 to get behind the group we were playing behind.

Hurry up and wait

Buffalo is notorious for being backed up and lack of carts. Although you wait the course is fun to pkay. Expect 5-6 hours for 18 especially during snowbird and spring breakers

Overbooked

Way overbooked. Can't even get carts back in for afternoon tee times. Arrive normal time to be ready and have to wait for a cart to come in before you can load clubs. Wait every shot. As many as for four groups on past 4's.

Overall course rating

I've been playing Buffalo creek since it's inception. Used to live less than a mile from the course. It's fair to say that it gets alot of play and not enough TLC. But the greens were fast. Alot of different kinds of grass and a few patches under repair. The fairways over seeded but not bad to make contact. Roughs are rough. Tee boxes are over seeded and have alot of unrepaired divots. No sand boxes available. But again for a public course and the price of golf today in this area. (Average cost for more upscale course between $120 - $150.) This is a really good deal. Paid $55 after 12.

This course is in horrible condition.

This facility is in horrible condition. The only nice thing I can say about the course or the amenities is that the staff was very nice to us. This course should be no more then 20 bucks to play.

Are you sure you played Buffalo Creek? Maybe you usually play Augusta National? To say the course is in horrible shape is an outright lie. For the money it's the best course in the area!
