Private course for public play

The greens are fast, true and very well kept. Also, the fairways are lush and there is never a bad lie. And for the money, there is no better deal around.

This is a must play!

Nice Course

A nice course with some tricky fairways up on the ridge and a number of interesting par threes... what breaks your concentration though are the sporadic gun fires from the shooting range nearby...

Great value

A very nice, challenging, course for every level of golfer. fantastic views but Tower ridge needs a ranger pushing play along. Very, very, slow round with no option to speed it up, just way to backed up. Please get a ranger to push groups along, allow people with places to go the chance to play their round ?

Tower Ridge

Good condition, not for walking as the majority of course is on the side of a mountain. Most greens are sloped and run fast. Placement of tee shots on blind holes is critical. Fun course.

Potential

Course and facilities definitely had a 1960s feel. Holes were not well marked and the directions were mostly spray painted on the cart paths. Greens were in great shape but tee boxes and fairways needed work. Overall, it was an average course with excellent views from some holes.

Scenic course

This course was in great shape and the first three holes make the course look somewhat easy; that is until you get to #4 and on. I liked the sloping greens; a lot of them slope from back to front. Depending on pin placement you may need to play short. This was my 1st time palying here and wouldn't hesitate to go back.

I read some of the reviews prior to my play and noted a lot of people complaining about the state police firing range near the course. We could hear the firing but was not distracting to me or my playing partner, as others stated. Finished just under three hours.

great layout and pace of play

I really enjoyed my latest round at Tower Ridge. The course was in excellent shape and the pace of play was such that I played 18 holes in 2 1/2 hours! The starter sent me off the back so I was able to fly through the round. The greens were all consitant and and in great shape.

Round spoiled by shooting sound

A late Sat evening decision to play an early Sunday morning round had me using Golf Now to find a tee time. First time playing this course tucked into the side of a mountain. We were paired with another twosome that helped explained where to aim on the numerous blind landing areas. We were told they cut down a lot of the tall grasses recently and so the course was playing easier. There were many dog leg rights that played well into my left to right shaped drives. Fairly enjoyable round until the loud reports of echoing gunshots of rifles and automatic pistols rang out from a nearby shooting range. It was almost non-stop for the last 8 holes. It made for some funny comments at first -" like that drive sounded like a cannon" - and so forth, but it got old real fast. I won't go back. I like the peacefulness of golf. and this experience spoiled that.

Great experience tempered by other factors

Course was in very good condition. Interesting assortment of challenging holes. Very slow pace of play which may have been partially caused by the challenges of the course. Hearing automatic weapons, shot gun blasts and handguns firing at the nearby police shooting range was very distracting.

mountain goat course

you will not have a level stance all day-if off the fairway at all you may not find your ball-very high grass. greens are good and fast. you may get lost going from 1 hole to another-you really need directions playing this course.

Walked

Great course

I loved this course. There are some really interesting holes and you will need to hit every club in the bag. Walking was a good workout, it is a bit of a "goat path", so maybe I will take a cart next time.

Course in nice condition

Although the course layout is tight, it played wide open and the fairways and greens were in great shape. The course needs to improve distance markers throughout. Some blind tee shots and hilly approaches made club selection iffy at times.

Enjoyed the course and plan on playing there again this year.
