Hot deal

$5 for 9 holes with a cart, can't be beat. Greens are a little beat up, fairway, tee boxes were in pretty good shape. Friendly staff

Two thumbs up

Disclaimer - I played for the first time using a hot deal so I paid less than $10 to play but so it was a great deal. It would be hard for me to pay more than $25 on an afternoon since it's only 9 holes but if you can get in around $20, it's totally worth playing.

It's an executive course so it's very short so it's great iron practice. I would recommend playing from the back tees for a little added challenge as one or two of the par 3s are super short. One is 77 yards from the whites and down hill... Or if you're playing through twice, play from the whites on the front 9 and then the back tees on the back 9 so you'll have some different looks at the hole. This is the one time I wouldn't be annoyed with someone playing from the back tees.

The staff was very friendly and very helpful which was nice since it was my first time playing here.

The course is in really good shape with a few blemishes on a few greens (only on the edges) but the fairways are in good shape on the par 4s.

The only negative is the practice green is outside of the course and across the street so make sure you plan accordingly. And the practice range was super packed so I wasn't able to hit any beforehand but not a big deal.

Great course and would recommend and will definitely be playing often. Especially if I can keep playing the hot deals!

Charlie Yates is beautifully maintained.

Always a pleasure to play at Charlie Yates! The staff is friendly, and when you play a second round of 9 holes, you only have to pay $10 each for the next round.

Keep it straight

This is primarily a par 3 course. Many of the fairways are tree-lined, so coming off the tee you need to keep it straight. Some of the greens are elevated with some undulations. Overall a decent course, maybe walked or rode. For the money I'd come back if I wanted to get a quick 9 in.

Pretty good

I didn't realize it was a par 30 course but the holes were all very well maintained with pretty good hole placements. I didn't try any food but the course was fun if you're looking for 9 short holes (one hole was 77 yards). Overall, a good experience though

Good 9 Hole Round

9 hole Par 3+ course with surprising amount of hole variability (water, sand, trees, etc) and elevation changes. 3 Par 4s were of varying lengths and difficulties. Greens were a little beat up and work was being done on most of the fringes, but course was in good shape otherwise. Pace of play was relatively slow, but OK for mid-afternoon on a holiday. Surprisingly good round of golf for an inside-the-perimeter course

9 hole course

Decent little course. A bit expensive for 9 (some very short) holes, unless you can find a 'hot deal' online. Overall course is in good (not great) shape. Greens better than I expected. Pace was brutally slow. Would go back, only if I find another online deal. Otherwise pay a little more and play 18 on a real length course.

Review

The pace of play was very slow due to two slow groups that wouldn't let anybody pass. The ranger was out on the course but all she had to say was it was slow. Other than waiting forever in between shots it is a good deal for the money. A good course to hone in irons and still hit a few long balls off the tee. I would play there again

Not what is used to be!

This used to be a great golf course to play. With the closing of the back nine it is just too crowded these days. I would tell a friend, only if they lived very close. Not worth the drive. They also do not let people use their practice facilities. Also charge way to much for what it is!

Good quick round

The greens were in good shape as were the very few fairways. The lies around the greens were pretty tight but that's probably due to the time of year, just plan on putting some from off the green.

Spotless Greens

On a cold day, we played nine holes and had a great time! The course maintenance is excellent, the greens are spotless (and challenging). This is a wonderful course to practice the short game, not an easy 3-par, lots of water and hills. I highly recommend it.
