Frog Hollow Golf Club

Tl;dr - best bang for you buck course in the area and a great course period. Enough challenges to keep you thinking and approachable in difficultly and cultural temperament for the average weekend warrior (me).

I have played Frog Hollow about six times over the past year. The mid week rates on GolfNow are the best in the area, including the local municipal courses. For its price, the value is top-notch. This past round, it was apparent how much work had been done over the past month on the fairways and greens. The greens were even and fast, challenging without imperfections. The fairways were much improved from over the winter, as you would expect after the rain, and what I can only assume is some watering, the fairways were soft and forgiving, for those who may dig a little deeper on miss hits. The clientele in the mid morning teetimes are generally very friendly, and excepting of players, who may play slower than average. This will not be the last time I play at Frog Hollow this month.

No Ports potties on course. No water available to refill bottles, no ball washer availablity.

Course is in very nice shape and everything went well from check-in to our gathering after our round in the bar. Greens were fast, fairways nice and plenty of soft sand in the bunkers this year.

The website talks about their fantastic bar and pub, but they failed to mention that they are closed on Monday. Customer service inside the clubhouse very lacking. The range and golf cart assistant was very professional.

To be called a “clubhouse” , yet failing to provide even ice for a customers personal cooler even after the request shows lack of customer service and care .

“Customer Service “ would be stretching the truth at this facility.

First time playing this course - for the $ it was a great deal. Only criticism is that the Gold tee markers were not in place. We met another golfer who explained they aren't placed until April 1st. Course should consider another set of tees a bit shorter than the Gold as it is still quite long for senior golfers. Overall great value.

Frog hollow is a decent layout although a bit boring, nestled in what looks to have been a decent community at one point. The main issue I have with it is that it looks like they haven't done any fall/winter maintenance and drainage seems to be lacking. Twice my tee shots were 80% plugged into the turf, there are huge swaths of fairway divots that havent been smoothed or filled, only 1 tee box (whites) is currently marked and 2 of those are closed with artificial mats in their place. I didn't see any sign of maintenance or repair being performed on either the closed or currently open tee boxes nor to the fairways. The sand was actually pretty decent and consistent except for one bunker where the rake was missing and it clearly hadn't been manicured by a machine in a while. I get it that maintenance is expensive but use your golfers to help, encourage them to fill divots and repair ball marks. If your golfers see a lot of divots filled, they're more likely to fill their own. Encourage fixing 2 ball marks on every green instead of just your own.

It is apparent that they are working to improve Frog Hollow in several respects. The greens are is nice condition, especially for winter. They are working to improve the sand traps and have revamped many of them. Overall, the course is in very good condition. One criticism is that they need more senior and women’s tees.

I enjoy playing here. The grass is probably my only complaint, even during the regular season. The food is good. Value for the money is excellent when you're paying $20 before season. I wouldn't rate it that high for normal fares (~$60).
