Green Garden - Great shape in 2020

I played today on the Green Garden Gold course for the first time in 2020 (I played it in past years). The course was in fantastic condition! It was 92 degrees today with a slight breeze, so conditions to play were fine. I like how they cut the grass in the rough low enpugh to find your balls quickly.

Really like the Gold course. Good challenge for a mid-handicapper. Island green 10th hole, 6-8 is a fun stretch of short par 4s, and the drive on 18 is always a challenge.

Staff is friendly.

Course can take on water, so be careful booking after heavy rains.

Fun course

It’s always fun playing green gardens. Unfortunately it was extremely wet. But it was still nice to get outside and play golf.

The Gold standard

The Gold course is my favorite course of all the Green gardens courses since it's the most challenging. It has an island green par 5 on top of having and abundance of fescue grass, water and sand to challenge any golfer. There is 4 tee box options so you can choose how much of a challenge you want to bite off.

Green Garden A+++

Green Garden is a very nice golf course. It’s very well maintained and with 45 holes, it offers 3 respective courses. (2) 18 hole courses and (1) 9 hole course. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone looking for a challenging yet very clean golf course.

Good round

Nothing much to complain about here. Course in great shape. Only complaint would be no beverage cart (we did play morning round) and the halfway house was closed so we were out of luck for a beverage of any kind.

New superintendent = great conditions

Played here a year ago, it was fun n I enjoyed the layout but I heard the owner got a new superintendent and it has really paid dividends. The golf course is in excellent shape, fairways and greens we're pristine. We liked it so much we decided to play the emerald course too (the nine hole course) which was in a good shape and had a true links feel to it. Great experience overall. Staff was great and friendly too. I definitely recommend checking this place out.

Great course

To be honest the first time I played this course was about 2-3 years ago and I was so disappointed. However the course to my understanding has been under new management and WOW! The course especially for the money is a gem! My only complaint would be they do not have sand on the par 3’s to fix divots. With the great transformation the course has had I’m sure all golfers would love to help keep improving. If you haven’t played here or it’s been awhile do yourself the favor and go enjoy a round
