Great find

Really enjoyed playing this course. The conditions were perfect and the weather was ideal. Unfortunately, we encountered a foursome, which eventually let us (a twosome) play through, and a twosome that did not, and that would have benefitted more from the driving range. Too many golfers playing from inappropriate tees. But the course was lovely and we had a great day regardless.

Looking green

Marsh Hawk was in good shape after several days of rain. Greens can be tough to read and provide a challenge. Foursome in front did not keep pace, but once we got around them on ten we were able to play quickly. Always a good round at Ford’s Colony and the hot deal wasn’t a great value. Will be back again soon!

Marsh Hawk

Overall good experience. Don’t love the layout of Marsh Hawk, a bit overly penal at times. The greens played much slower than you would expect. Overall I like the club and courses they have here. I’ll be back.

Excellent COurse

Played this course after a day of solid rain and the course was in great condition. Challenging but manageable course. Everyone was nice for first time playing course. Back up on Hole 1 and started said to go to the other course and play. Had no one in front and no one pushing. Just a great enjoyable few hours of golf. Will definitely go back in the future

VIP experience, but wet with punched greens

We were treated very well by the staff upon arrival and check in. Odd issue with whether or not the range balls were included in the round or not. Heavy rains from the day before left the course soggy. Layout is top notch. There was no notice that the greens had recently been punched. Slightly disapointed with the cost considering course conditions, but I will play again.

Top Notch Course

Still early in the season, but the driest course we've played this week. Greens were spectacular. Great layout, very fair, plenty of challenges, bunkers were all raked and beautiful (every where else we played they've been terrible). They have 54 holes at Ford Colony and we played Marsh Hawk. I'd go again in an instant. In a couple weeks, the conditions will be like mid-summer and should be awesome

Muddy mess

Tee boxes in poor condition. Fairways were a muddy mess with few blades of grass to find. Greens were ok. Staff were nice. Wasted a beautiful day and wished I had played elsewhere.

Aerated greens

There should have been an aerification alert for the greens. Overpriced for the condition. That being said the layout and treatment by the staff was excellent. Very wet due to rain the prior day. Will play again but not for several weeks.
