Short, tight course

This course was in good shape but short at 5300+ yards from the blue tees. The homes that line the course are close also. Be careful.

The greens were slow but true and overall the course is in great shape but everything is really close so be aware at all times.

Quaint

Nice old short course with good fairways and greens. Greens are small, which adds to the fun. Play is slow as the clientele is on the upper side of 70 years old. If you are patient it is a very good place to play.

Great Day

Weather was a little windy but temperature was warm. Course in excellent condition, enjoy layout as had many doglegs in both directions, though course not long. Front nine pace was great, slowed up a lot on back nine.

Not enough stars

Shadow mountain golf course, our day began with great service at check in, everyone was so friendly! The course is in perfect condition, and for our 1st time there, we were able to navigate the course easily. The starter was fun and helpful. The cocktails were delicious. Everything was amazing! Highly recommend!
