First time

Great experience for first time visit. Staff extremely helpful. Fun lay out for 9 holes. Fairways still not grown in, so not easy to hit off them yet

John A White

The course is great. You can use your whole bag of clubs for a complete round. It was after the rain so a little muddy, but the greens are in great condition.
Wether walking or riding it’s a great 9hole experience. You can even loop it again for 18. 🏌🏽‍♂️🏌🏽‍♂️🏌🏽‍♂️🏌🏽‍♂️🏌🏽‍♂️

Good Value

Easily the best 9 hole course inside the perimeter - also far better than Tup Holmes down the road. The course is always in good shape and very arcade-y, recently-updated greens, plus a driving range to warm up on. Sometimes has issues with pace of play but thats any course

Reasonable course

For a 9 hole course, layout was good with good distance from the blue tee box.

Need improvement

The course has picked up the pace as far as improvements, but it still has a way to go to be worth the money for just 9 holes. Maybe with all the gentrification and caucasians that play at this course now, they will get better.

Great 9 quick to play

Course is in great shape, green are rolling mid fast, but they need to roll the surface & cut them a little lower. Bunkers are excellent, nice fuffy white sand. Clean course, maintenance was blowing the green when we got there.

I didn't know that

I didn't know that John A. White got new greens.
I haven't been playing this course in a while even it is so close to my home because the greens were a desaster.

This changed completely ... You'll see ma again soon.

Great! Great Great!

This is basically a NEW course. New Zoysia greens and Bermuda fairways with plenty of grass. Your golf ball sits up in the summer time which makes it easy to make good contact. New practice putting greens and practice facility. New management and the association with the First Tee Program brings this golf course into the big leagues. Love, love to play this course and have played it for over 15 years. It is in GREAT shape. The best it has been in within the last 15 years. You will NOT be disappointed in this course.

Short Par 4s and good course conditions, be wary of pace of play

The kind of golfers that play here include those that may take a lot of time to play…be ready to jump a hole if you’re willing too. Overall I would come back here to play, worth the try

Good Course

This was my first time playing John A. White 9 Hole course as they have recently renovated all their Bunkers and Greens. The course was wet from all the rain and the greens were very slow. In my opinion, this is not a bad or terrible thing as the greens have just been installed and the course reopened on 8/19. With some time to mature and heal, the greens will be fantastic.

Playing the course is fairly straightforward as you open with a Par 5. I thoroughly enjoyed playing the course as it will allow you to work on your shots with your Irons and Hybrids. You definitely have to manage your play on this course. I can't wait to come back and play once the greens firm up and the fairways are drier.

One more thing, I love the fact that on the range warming up they have a cover that can protect you from the elements. Pretty cool to get loose before your round. I highly recommend you check out John A. White's course.

JAW

We Played John A White today, it reopened after renovation last Friday. Good job redoing the course guys. Greens are a little low, due to not being cut low & rolled. But the course over all, is beautiful from what it was the last few years. We need the rain to stop & dry up the fairways.
