A Bad Day

It was a bad day at Lake Spivey, I don’t know what was going on they must only have 20 golf carts for the whole course. My cart died on hole on hole 5, had to walk to the club house and wait for 30 minutes to get another cart. I only got to pay 8 holes because the pace of pay was terrible. Me and my playing partner should’ve gotten a rain check for today.

This place needs new owners

Children are running the club house. 12 people on the first tee and the cart died. No thanks.

Just Ok

With the cold & wet forecast predicted for late afternoon Sunday we decided to take a chance at Spivey (Mainly because there was ZERO tee times available elsewhere. and I've played there a few times) We arrived to grab some range balls and pay for the round.

The young man at the counter was very pleasant, so much so that I remarked to my friends about how nice he was (for being a young millennial). The starter was also nice and extremely knowledgable. The course was in good, but not great shape and it looks like it's starting to decline somewhat....not sure what that's about, although I did hear rumors that the whole place was up for sale. We were a little disappointed that the restaurant was not open and the ladies were VERY UPSET that none of the restrooms on the course were open. I get it, but it aint rocket science......how hard is it to clean the restrooms. Over all it was a pretty good day and we just did beat the rain. We Will Be Back.

Wet, slow and 2 dead carts

This coarse holds water. The layout is nice and it’s in decent condition. But they were out of carts when we arrived. One cart barely made it 6 holes, the other cart just made it 9 holes and one of the replacements only made half way through 15 so we had to walk the last 3 1/2 holes. We tried to call the pro shop but went straight to voice mail.

Fun to Play, But Over-Priced

Enjoy this course, but should be more around $30/round.

Pleasantly Surprised

I used to play this course often 15-20 years ago and then it began to go downhill. I played sparingly over the years but not in the last couple of years. When I found the great deal, I was hoping it would just be in decent shape. Turns out this was the golf for the value I’ve had in a while. The course was in Pretty good shape and I had an enjoyable round!

Balanced

This course has a refreshing balance of challenging and forgiving fairways. Nice spread of stroke count. Good geographical isolation between fairways - feels like a journey to traverse. The course, especially on the green, is well groomed, and bald patches are scarce. GPS carts with electronic scorecard. Didn't have any breathing room ahead or behind our party and a tad pricey for regular play.

Highly recommend

Beautiful course, Always kept in superb condition. Some challenging water hazards on the front 9. Paid $35 for 18 holes. It’s definitely a $65 course.
