Black Creek Golf Club

Cancelled due to weather. Waiting for credit back to my card

We have played this course many times over the past two years. The course is in excellent shape compared to others locally. Rates are great, staff is very friendly. The current problem is with the pandemic in play and everything else shut down, there are too many players showing up and being allowed on the course. Result, the past two times we have played we got behind a twosome who were slow becasue they were behind a foursome who could barely swing a club, lost lots of balls and held everything else up. We even skipped a couple holes on the back side and tried to tee off on 16 only to be held up again by a twosome who was waiting for a mid fairway twosome who were waiting for a foursome on the green.

Not coming back until this pandemic is over and fewer people are trying to play, or until the course does a better job of tee time and course management. It's just not worth sitting for 15 or 20 minutes on each hole waiting for duffers who can't hit to get off the greens, off the next tee and out of your way.

the metal things they put in the cups are too high and caused several balls to roll out of the cup. it gets in your head a little knowing they are in there ! the traps were in rough shape but the fairways were in good condition !

Course was in overall good shape. Staff always helpful. They need to repair all sand traps, drainage and additional sand. They are doing all other course maintenance.

Booked a hot deal. Got There at 11 only to find out that they had a large blitz scheduled for 1230. We teed off and by the sixth hole were sitting behind a walking threesome (which should not have been allowed with so many players on the course) and they held us up to no end. We spent the next three holes mostly sitting on the fairways waiting for them to walk, find their lost balls, chip up , and finish the greens. Thought maybe we’d get ahead of them on the 10th hole, no luck we skipped around to 16, played 16 17, 18 ,And went back to play 10, but the blitz had made it around by then and it was just too crowded. We played here several times I really like the course but course management today left a lot to be desired. We did not play 10 through 15 because it was too crowded. Disappointed in such poor course management this time.

Had a great time golfing. The course was in very good shape considering the amount of rain recently. Felt a little rushed at times but still a great value for the price!! Would recommend and will be back!!!

Great course but unfortunately a lot mud and casual water on the back 9.

It is a lot of fun to play.

I’ve played this course in the fall and it’s not bad, early spring not bad but today it was a bear to play and I watched other groups as we waited in several spots so it wasn’t just us. Over the last month I’ve played two courses in Bluffton SC, Crosswinds par 3 last weekend and today my son in law and I played black creek.

The reason I brought up playing the last three courses this morning is because of fairway and green conditions, at all three when the ball landed the grass was tall enough that you had a good lie to play off of. Today at black creek through the whole course is was like playing on a parking lot.

Sure you got good ball roll, but trying to play your next fairway shot was really rough. My suggestion is let the grass grow a quarter inch to a half inch thick, that way you can actually get under the ball. The greens also VERY short and crazy fast, good luck getting a chip to stick no matter how good the chip was that ball just kept rolling and rolling. I watched several groups struggle trying to land normally easy pitch shots, many were adding two to three extra shots per hole because the ball would just roll right off the other side.

With summer coming and hot humid temperatures and lack or rain it’s only going to get faster. I’ll come back in the fall hopefully it won’t be so fast it’s almost unplayable.

Good course though but comparing to other area courses at this time of year just cut the mowing back some leave us some lies.

Good shape still needs a little work but getting better

Considering this course was completely under water about a month ago it's in excellent condition.

Greens are nice and fast, fairways are coming in, and you can see multiple places the staff has placed sod to fill in areas damaged by the flooding.

Course is in good shape in spite of all the rain over the past month. Everything was well mowed. Staff friendly. Not many players out because of the virus, but a nice sunny day and fun round.

The greens are in great condition. Some of the tee boxes are looking thin and unkept but overall the course is in good shape. I love the layout. It is not a cookie cutter course.

Great course!!! Course was probably in the best condition it has been in.

While the course and the cart paths need some attention, the greens were in great shape. They were hard and fast. For the money, this is a great course. It is a bit short but a fun layout.

Arrived early for a scheduled 11 a.m. tee time only to be told the course was "out of carts" due to a tournament. Apparently, the tournament went off at 7:30 a.m. -- and somehow the head pro (who was out PLAYING GOLF and not available to handle issues!) thought they would be done by 11. To compound the error, someone ran off with the key to the last remaining cart. The counter clerk did his best to help us, and his manager eventually produced her personal cart key (which had to be retrieved from her home). My group finally got a cart at 11:49 a.m.

The course was not in good shape. The greens were hard and fast -- great for good players who might be hitting wedges into them but not so good for amateurs who must hit longer clubs that cannot hold the greens.

With a little work and some common-sense management, this could be a good place to play, but until then, not so much.

Course was in great shape. It is a very interesting and fun layout and still challenging. Great value as well!
