didn't feel wanted

as you walk in the guy in the proshop didn't seem to like that we booked out tee time through golf now. told us we had to have 3 per cart and that they were booked solid so we couldn't get out early. Went to the starter and he said we could go right now and there was no one behind us.The beer cart girl seemed like we we being an inconvenience to her and her cell phone use. Tip reflected her attitude! Course was nice but if you want to feel like your appreciated for spending your money at a course go to White Eagle in Hudson WI.

Appreciate your feedback, obviously that's the worst possible review I can read. So we've taken steps to upgrade and demand more out of all of our staff. I have no great excuse, we just failed you. I hope you'll give us a second chance, and we can prove you wrong.

I had the same rude worker deal with us multiple times and it's the same result every time. I gave them multiple chances to change my mind about how I feel about the course and the same guy has ruined their chances of getting my business as well as the people I go golfing with.

The more I play this course the better I like it. Maybe that's because I'm learning how to avoid the trouble and take advantage of the holes that you can score on. Course is in good shape and will test anyone.

Good Value - SLOW Round

Made my reservation for 12:45 pm on a holiday weekend hoping that perhaps pace of play would not be an issue. Wrong. When we arrived at the 2nd tee, (par 5), there we 4 groups on that hole, mixture of 3'somes and 4'somes. How can that be? Continues to confound me at area golf courses why the Rangers are afraid to do their job and tell people that they need to pick up the pace of play.

As it turns out, one of the issues is that hole 3 is a par 3. Why doesn't this course put up a sign to have people who reach the green "wave the next group on".

Most rounds I have played at this course have been fairly quick (even at the 3pm twilight). Usually around 4 hours or just under. Today, I teed off at 7:30am, thinking it would be a quick round. Not the case. The group two groups in front of us were extremely slow. There was a five hole gap in front of them with at least 6 groups (from only what I could see) bunched up behind them. The course ranger this morning was absolutely terrible. We told him where to slow down was and he continued to stay and harass our group and said we take too long to hit. Although, we were waiting on every shot. I think he just didn't like that we were playing the blue tees instead of the whites. The group behind us continued to hit into us (on the par 4 14th, the group hit over the green while we were still on the green - without yelling fore). We told the ranger to have them back off. The next hole, the guy behind us hit the ball a few feet from me as I was walking off the green (once again, fore was not yelled). The ranger was right there and saw it! I pointed it out to him and his response to me is that he didn't like how I "didn't fix my divot" from the fairway (even though the replacement was no-existent because the grass blew up into pieces and they don't put sand/see in the carts to put down). I can't believe the ranger would think that replacing a divot that didn't have anything to replace it with was more important than golfers not getting pelted with an incoming golf ball on the green from the group behind. Not to mention, doing nothing to help the pace of play with the slow group in front of us. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!

Anyway, rant is over. I do like this course and it is in great shape. However, today was probably the single worst golf experience I've ever had (and it wasn't my play - I still pulled off a 79). Will likely be back because of the course itself, but this one left a sour taste.

plays long when wet

We played from the tips after a couple inches of rain and it felt like about 7500 yards. also walked due to no cart policy and I recommend riding this course due to distance between greens and tees. greens were surprisingly dry considering the volume of rain we just had. Greens were slow but they were not able to cut them that morning due to rain. This is one of my local go to courses because it is fairly long from the back tees. a couple wonky holes on the back nine but otherwise fun and challenging. smooth and medium fast greens.

Topdressing greens-should it be a secret at booking?

Good course which I have played may times. On this particular day they had top dressed all the greens. I wish courses would tell you this before booking. Or they should give a reduced rate due to the conditions for the day.

Logger's Trail - Bored Staff, great course

This hidden gem is reasonably priced, no frills clubhouse, working carts with no cart amenities, friendly beverage cart service, but the clubhouse staff and ranger were pretty business like and seemed bored.

Course conditions were really great for the money.

Solid Course

I enjoyed my first time out at Logger's Trail. Its a nice course that's in the metro area that's easy to get to. It's design is reasonably challenging and is in good shape. I will definitely be back. I had already played another round in the morning, comparing the two I like Logger's Trail better.

Great condition

Course was in near perfect condition. A few more blind shots than most courses, but a fair and challenging golf course. A higher end public track at a decent price. Not quite Stoneridge, but not far off.

Fun track

So, I booked this on the wrong day and showed up a whole day early! Funny when I showed up...we were trying to figure out why I wasn't coming up on their computer. I was immediately disappointed in GolfNow and assumed that they had let me down somehow. After we had figured out that I made an error in the date, they were gracious enough to let me tee off anyway! Friendly staff, very respectful and the course was in pretty good shape for this early in the season. I felt it was pretty wide open, with the exception of a couple of holes. I snap hooked 4 drives and didn't get penalized too severely. Overall, would recommend to anyone looking for a fun little course, cut out back in the forests of Stillwater. I had a 36 & 38 and would play this course again.

Great course for the money

I enjoyed playing at Loggers Trail. It is a fun course layout, greens are in good shape and were fairly fast, and the cost was fair for walking. Pace of play was good because people were playing the appropriate tees for their skill level. Tee it forward!

Solid course, well designed, challenging holes

Early in the season you can expect the course to have some issues but the greens were in mid season form which says a lot about the grounds crew. Pros; maintained bunkers, solid greens, and a mix of terrain and architecture. Cons; need to upgrade the beverage cart, and get that clubhouse built. I will continue to put loggers on the top of my list. The thing I like most is that you have options, it is not the same round every time you play it

Logger's Trail in April

Logger's Trail is always an enjoyable and challenging course to play, especially on a very windy and cool April day. Despite the late arriving spring, the course was in good shape - unlike my golf game. I consider Logger's Trail as an excellent value and a good test of golf. I also appreciate the two-for-ones beer special after a round. Nice way to cap a good day.

Fun, Challenging Course

The course was in surprisingly good condition for early April. The greens were smooth and fast. The fairways were decent, but I wish people would replace their divots, especially early in the season. I played in a threesome behind several foursomes and it seemed like the pace of play was a bit slow, but the round was just slightly over four hours. If you haven't played this course, you will find it fun and challenging.

Opening Day

For the 1st day open, this course was in great shape. Survived the winter in excellent condition. Only one temp green and once it dries out will be fine. I am planning on coming back in a month to play again to see how fast the greens really are. Great course!
