Emerald Greens Golf Club - Gold Course

Some of the tee boxes we being repaired, otherwise course is in nice shape.

Pace of play was very slow and 1st tee Gold was stacked with 4-somes waiting to tee off. Talked to clubhouse and were told to play Silver instead, which worked out great.

Lots of construction going on around the grounds, parking lot(s), cart paths. Tee boxes need a lot of work as they’re quite small, not level and long grass.

Greens were slower than I like, and the fairways needed to be cut shorter in my opinion.

Overall, an average course that was more expensive than I think it should be.

Dirt parking lot , everything dusty. Only 2 people in clubhouse - long line to check in. Started late. Super slow round - over 5 hours.

Has a wide variety of golfers and all skill levels

I was scheduled to play the Gold course at Emerald Green on Sunday August 28. I made the reservation about a week before. On Saturday 27 we had a fair amount of rain that night leaving the course very wet. It was open, but with cart path only restrictions. Our tee time was for 10:56 am . I called the course about an hour before to say that as a senior golfer I needed to ride a cart more than just on the path. I left my name and phone number as instructed by their message, but unfortunately I never got a call back even though the message said I would. I did get a text that said my new tee time would be around 3:45 pm that day. My playing partner, my son, was unable to make that time due to a previous planned event and we never requested an afternoon tee time. I did play the Silver course a month or so earlier and would schedule a time for the Gold course again if I could use the fee I paid for the 28th round that I’ve not been refunded. My first experience with this course was fine, but this was terrible as they didn’t follow their own way of handling calls. Please let me know if I can get a refund from the 28th to use in the future at the Emerald Green course. Thank you.

We had to have the beer cart gal get a ranger out to get the 4 some in front of us out of the way because there was literally 8 groups backed up because they were so slow. After they were out of the way we played the back nine in an hour a a half. Course needs some water because the rough was hard as a rock. Greens and fairways were in decent shape.

The gold course is a shorter, more relaxing round of golf than the silver course.

The greens are typical "emerald greens" fast, so mind your touch with the putter.

There are birdies to be had if you're on your game.

I do however prefer the days of the par 5 10th being the first hole. That sharp dogleg makes for a slow 1st hole for many golfers, imo.

Give the gold course a try, I think you'll like it.
