Construction Complete
They have lengthened most of the holes and have added blue tees now. Would rather them work on the sand traps around the greens as the sand is very compacted.
Construction almost wrapped
The extensive addition of blues and extra yardage makes for a lot of fun . Course pace of play was average to lack of marshalling and. 2 separate groups of 4 walking did not help at all .
Otherwise a good time !
Slow play & concrete tee box
Broke many a tee trying to put them into the ground. Almost all tee boxes were hard as a concrete.
Pace of play was also extremely slow. With no marshals actively managing the pace, some groups spent value time looking for lost balls which backed up the play. Bloomington Downs needs to hire course marshals, especially during weekends.
Greens where in great shape
It is not a long course and therefore very easy to walk. For two golfers we finished 18 holes in slightly less than 4 hours.
Just a couple of suggestions…. .
1) would like to see the rough cut shorter to save time looking for balls.
2) Better maintenance of outhousess. Most times the toilet is disgusting and have paper towels etc thrown in them likely preventing flushing. Placing garbage containers outside could help with this problem.
What Happened
This course was always a go to course for over 20 years. The tee box, you could not put in a tee on any of them. Hard as cement! The putting greens surface grass was high especially around the holes, we have never experienced this anywhere. The fairways grass was tall and like cement.
Very disappointed we choice this Course for Father's Day.
We are considering never returning.
Sadly there were no practice facilities available before out round.
The practice range was full and there were not practice balls.
The practice putting area was full of children.
Excellent, as usual
Course was in a great condition. Love the feel of the cushiony fairway! Greens were also in pretty good shape, nothing to complain about. Pace was a bit rushed as we had a fast group behind us and always felt a bit rushed. Good value for the money, especially the twilight rounds.
Pleasant Surprise - but needs water on the tee decks
Wasn't sure what to expect given the very public and relaxed nature of the driving range, but the course was a very nice surprise. They are adding over 1,000 yards to the course with beautiful new tee decks and the course has some very challenging holes.
However - the brand new tee deck were like pavement! Incredible new grass areas but literally could not get a tee into the ground. Wound up using an indoor artificial grass pyramid tee for the round.
Great Course
First time playing this course and I was pleasantly surprised. Staff was super helpful and kind. It was extremely windy when I played so the openness of the course helped to find balls. Some tricky holes with doglegs and water which make the course fun to play as well as some short par 4s which are great. Excited to have the blue tees open up to make the course a bit longer. Overall a great course for the money.
