About
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.

Challenging course
For the first time playing this course. Lots of water, small greens. Course was in beautiful shape. Great experience! Will be back.
Great old fashion layout
Course is in great condition. Layout is challenging and fun, keep u on your toes. Back nine more scenic than front with forced carries
Pace of play
Ther only issue I had was I hit my ball into a bee hive on the 5th. I find it weird that it's not busier. But this course will definitely get my business in the future. Great layout, pace of play and nice wide yet challenging fairways. Lots of bunkers to test your accuracy.
Great course with challenging obstacles
This was a great course, and very fun to play. The fairways were well kept as were the greens. Outside the fairways the grass was pretty thick, making it slightly difficult to find your ball. There were more than a few single golfers that we let play through but I’m assuming that was because it was a weekend at and the timing of our outing. Overall I enjoyed the course and plan on returning in the near future.
Getting better
Greens in good shape. Traps are still in disrepair. Tee boxes are rock hard.
Bad bunkers
Only complaint were the bunkers. Hardpacked; very litttle sand in a lot of bunkers. Standing water in a couple of bunkers.
Dry
Great layout and very challenging. Greens just punch and sanded but puttable somewhat. Should be good in couple of weeks. Fairways are hard with some cracks throughout . Sand traps are hard with little sand, mostly clay. Need rain!!!!
Still a good layout to play.
Not worth the money
Course was in poor shape as the fairways weren’t mown the greens needed water lots of pitch marks tee boxes and bunkers like concrete. the practice putting green in horrendous condition!! Way over priced for the course conditions!!! Will not play again.
As good as it gets at Greatwood
As long as i can remember... hole 17 green is the hole that tells you if this golf course is in good or bad condition. Its in great condition!
David
Nice course, pace of play great and friendly staff. 1 or 2 greens need to finish growing in.
Like the course
Like the course better to play on weekdays much faster weekend is a log jam had to play the front nine twice
Quality golf course
Greatwood is all an avid golfer could ask for. Extremely challenging, good fairways and greens are excellent presently.
