Knollwood Golf Club - Old
Rating Snapshot
About
Knollwood Golf Club is home to two 18-hole courses, the Old and the New. The golf courses were built nearly 20 years apart. Opened in 1970, the Old Course is spread across beautiful parkland that is covered in trees. The layout is more traditional and less challenging than the other course at Knollwood Golf Club, but it is still an entertaining round. The main priority in creating the golf course was to not only maintain the natural features of the terrain, but also enhance it. Thousands of trees were planted in addition to those already present throughout the golf course. The result is a unique course that players of all skill levels will enjoy.

Knollwood - Old Course lots of FUN!!
A nicely kept course, albeit a short course. Staff are amazing people. Very nice views to behold. I would recommend this course to anyone.
Used to be a great course
Used to place this course all the time. It had great value, was always in reasonable shape, and the pace of play was always at least average.
I've played here twice this year and both times have been disappointed. The course is in awful shape. Nearly half the greens are dead and every tee box is rock-hard. The tee box markers have been removed due to Covid, which makes no sense. Nobody touches them except staff. Several times I had to move my ball while in the middle of the fairway due to dead grass.
Tee times were packed solid for our Monday afternoon round, and no beverage cart service despite probably 50-75 golfers on the course.
Greenskeeper should be fired. Greens are just in awful, awful shape. Maybe had one or two true rolls all day.
Pace of play was brutal. Starter kept letting twosomes go off instead of pairing them up. Three groups playing each hole the whole round.
I understand golf courses are facing huge challenges due to Covid, but this was alarming. Please get the course back into shape next year and we'll return.
Scenic little course with beautiful old hardwoos
This is my third time playing the old course. Really enjoy the layout and the forgiving fairways.
Greens were a little rough due to top dressing.
Overall, will be back to play again.
Staff were exceptional.
