Pace of Play Stinks..

Course has the potential to be unbelievable, but seems like they’ve slowly let it go.

Trash left on the course and cans all full, halfway house was closed, pace of play was AWFUL. Took 3 hours to play the front 9. Was so bad that my partner and I called it quits on 13…

Always Solid

One of my favorite courses in Ohio. Layout is awesome and conditions were great.

Pace of play was eh but that is only due to the guys in front of us, not the courses fault.

Always will recommend to anyone.

First Time Playing

Challenging, but miserably slow

Course is very strategic and challenging... was my first time and you've got to play with someone who has been around it before. I didn't find it unfairly hard, but I could see a 10 handicap getting destroyed at this place. My gripe was the pace. I drove 80 mins to play it and after 4.5 hours, I was only through 13 holes, so I left. I didn't have time for a 6-6.5 hour round. Took 3 hours to make the turn, and when calling the clubhouse, they acted like they had no idea what a raincheck was... I would have gladly taken one for 9 holes and come back another day. Due to the pace, I couldn't recommend the course. I have no idea how you could possibly play a good round when you have to wait 5 mins over every shot

First time here, absolutely beautiful course. Hole layouts and hazards positions were hard to judge with no yardage book so use gps to help if you dont want to accidentally hit into something you can't see.

Staff was great and best starter I've had.

Only downside was pace of play. Be prepared for about 5 hour rounds of 18

Great Course for the money!

The course is very fun - there’s a lot of water and sand so be prepared and enjoy.

Highly recommend.

This course is maturing beautifully.

They seem to be constantly fine tuning the drainage/irrigation issues a more established course might not have.

I think this course is wonderful with well thought out holes that are beautifully situated.

Suggestion… play some light music in the cart. Not loud enough that it disrupts anyone, but loud enough to drown out the passing semi’s on the adjacent highway.

Great layout, friendly staff, not taken care of

We had a twosome on Sunday afternoon and there is lots to like about the course. The layout is really nice, the staff is friendly and the pace of play was good as we finished in 2:15. Unfortunately, the conditions of the course were less than stellar. Players did not take care of it at all with endless amounts of un-filled divots, ball marks on greens and unraked traps all over. If there could be stronger maintenance and oversight, this could be an excellent course and experience.

Very poorly maintained. Rude staff.

The course was in a very poor condition. Weeds in bunkers. Very slow greens. Poorly maintained fairways. This course used to be a very nice course but this year all 3 times I played, I was very disappointed. I would not go back for a while. They even charge for credit card use fee in addition to the green fee and the cart fee.

Ruined vacation day

I love this course! Everything was great except for pace of play . This happens a lot here . They either need to get more rangers on the course and enforce pace of play or separate tee times more . I played on a Thursday and it took more than 5 hours ! RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!! How are you supposed to get into a rhythm and actually play golf waiting 10 minutes in between each shot ? I would never pay full price to play there because of this ! The only way I play is if I get a hot deal on golfnow

Course was in great shape

Staff is helpful and friendly. 2 hours and 20 minutes for each 9. Course was pretty dry for all the rain the night before.

Great Course

Typically play once or twice a year. Lucked out with 7:20 tee time through GolfNow for $54 (+ GolfNow fees). Love that no two holes are alike. Course in fantastic shape. Greens rolled great, were firm, but fair. Fairways in good shape. Course doesn't seem to rake traps (at least not before this round). Overall, traps were in good shape. There was a maintenance person meandering through course turning on green sprinklers when there were gaps between players (nice touch for later groups). Starter let other 1/2 of foursome off as we arrived (about 10 minutes early) so ended up playing as twosome. Read reviews commenting about slow play. Finished front 9 in 2 hours and 18 in just over 4 hours (thanks to the golfing gods!). Speculating cart restrictions (typically have to return to cart path once within 100 yards of green) contributes to slow play.

Bunker like concrete

Course is not worth 75 dollars. I’ve golfed cheap courses with better bunkers. If your course has a ton of bunkers you should maintain them. Disappointing round to say the least.

5.5 HOUR ROUND

I WILL NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES GO TO BOULDER CREEK AGAIN! 5.5 HOUR ROUND. I FINALLY JUST WALKED OFF THE COURSE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE 18TH HOLE. WE WERE WAITING 15 MINUTES ON EVERY SHOT. NOT WORTH THE TIME.
