About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6836 yards
Slope 1308
Rating 72.3

Greatwood is known for its white sand bunkers and impressive par 3s, three of which play right at or over 200 yards. The 1989 Carlton Gipson design features elevated tees and greens that sandwich plush fairways and are contoured with mounds.

The 434-yard par 4 hole 5 is one difficult par, featuring a fairways loaded with bunkers and involves water on the approach. No. 18 goes 576, yards. While the tee shot is fairly standard, the second shot must land short of a plateau and might involve a blind approach shot if placed too far to the left. The intimidating approach plays into a green surrounded by water on three sides.

Getting there : From Hwy. 59 south, turn left on Crab River Rd., then make a left onto the other side of Hwy. 59. Look for Greatwood Pkwy. and make another left when you get there.

Need to Marshall the back nine

Course in decent shape, but the back nine was very slow, they need Marshall’s that drive the course and keep people moving…regularly waited 5-10 minutes on each hole of the back nine

Members need etiquette lessons

Enjoyed the course; good layout, good conditions, GREAT value! Traffic jam on back nine (no big deal). Threesome kept pushing the pace but there was nowhere to go. Later learned they were MEMBERS, who really should know better.

MY EXCITING GOLFING EXPERIENCE AT GREATWOOD GOLF COURSE.

My wife and I had a very exciting round of golf yesterday at the Greatwood Golf Course. The numerous penalty areas was a very big challenge as we lost many golf balls that were played into the lakes. Driving on the golf cart over a distance of what could make for a long Par 5 was both challenging and exciting.

This course is a goat ranch

Worst course I have played ever!

Dried out fairways, uneven tee boxes, dirty, smelly bathrooms.

A complete waste of money!
