Bring your “A” game
Course is extremely challenging, not much room for error on any hole. Played from the tips and you have to carry 230yd-240yd just to clear the water…more than half of the fairway of at least 4 holes is water and the other half cart path! Missed greens are punishing with water waiting for you on the back and most sides.
It was really cold and winter golf when I played, looking forward to tackling it when it is greened up.
Apartments
Apartment complex bordering the course seem dangerous, a lot of screaming action and people walking and swearing at each other, police intervention would have been nice
Good value
Played the course after Labor Day. Fairways were 1/2 grass and 1/2 dead spots. We just moved the ball to a grass spot which wasn’t more than a club length. Course layout if fun and the pad 3’s are long from the back tees. Greens are bent grass but perfect. You would think bent would be hurting this time of year. All in all a great test of golf. Used every club in the bag. I hope new management that just bought the course fixes the fairway issues. The course was closed for awhile so give them a chance because the layout is fun.
Disappointed
I was very disappointed at seeing the course conditions.. I invited several good friends to play the course on Labor Day & as a birthday gift to one of my friends but we found the fairways to be horrible . Miserable round of golf
Bring lots of golf balls
Extremely difficult golf course., water comes in to play on every hole. Very challenging, but very playable with ball management. Fairways were in good shape, but a couple holes, the grass were dead. The greens were in excellent condition, one of the best in the area for a public course. Will definitely play again. Food was pretty good too.
Too cold!
The layout looked interesting but it was too cold to even play the full 18 holes. I only finished 9 holes & it was even a challenge to get done with 9 holes. I certainly would like to go play it again when the weather is warmer.
Poor Communication
I booked a tee time at Marion a couple weeks ago on Golfnow and paid the deposit. Unfortunately when I showed up today, I was turned away because I was not a member. It was my wife’s birthday, and she was pretty upset, but there was nothing we could do. The staff member said they are not honoring any Golfnow reservations because of Covid 19, which I can understand. But why is the club listing tee times on the platform if they aren’t valid? The course was wide open. Thankfully we were able secure a place later in the afternoon, just disappointed in the customer service when we drove 30 minutes for this reservation and was denied the opportunity to play.
