Good course for the money.

Overall the course was in good shape. The greens rolled well even with some patchwork repairs. It’s a good course value if you get a last minute tee time. If you pay the rack rate then it’s not such a great value.

Pace of play was a joke

As the title suggests, pace of play was so very slow it was maddening. We only played nine holes even though we were scheduled for eighteen, but couldn't take it anymore.

Nice public course

My sons and I played and the course was in good shape. It’s a tougher course than you think. Pace of play was OK but seemed like everyone was right on top of each other. Staff was great. Starter was pleasant to talk with. Bag guys were quick to bring a cart and load us up. Register person was nice along with the lunch counter person.

Course suffering from lack of water. Greens good, not fast. Just oversewed, still needs time to grow in. As other munis, not huge maintenance budget, but decent value for the money.

This course has improved since we played it last year

Enjoyed playing this course and it has a natural environment which I enjoy rather than playing with lots of surrounding houses.

Sometimes it can be rather wet I don’t know whether to over watering so the ball seems not to roll onto the greens as expected.

I hope to play there again in the next few weeks if the price stays reasonable.

Okay but needs help.

The course is laid out very well but the course needs help. The tee boxes were over seeded, the fairways had a lot of brown sections and the greens were good except for the sandy spots.

Sunday fun

Course was in pretty good shape.

With a few delays that slowed us down, we did not get to finish the round.

We were only able to play 16 holes before it was dark.

Overpriced and poorly maintained

Just like the title says, BC is overpriced for how poorly it's maintained. There is exponentially more sand on the greens than in the bunkers and there's more standing water in the fairways than in the ponds but the staff is friendly and the carts are way better than they used to be.

Buffalo Creek review

You must prepay on most every tee time which can be problematic when one person is booking a group. Play in the weekday mornings for better pace.

Nice quiet course.

This is a good quiet place to play without spending a lot of money. It is in good shape considering how dry things have been.
