It was an awesome deal !!
Great challenge
Great course for the money and very challenging.
Both courses (gold and blue) nice.
Shot shaping course
I love the way it challenged your choice of hitting it straight, fade or draw all of the holes.
Well worth the money and the drive.
Nice challenging course, a number of the holes had difficult layouts and water frequently came into play. A few greens and tee boxes had some distress but even with the long drive I'll be back!
Blue is easier of the two 18 hole course
Some of the tee boxes are getting chewed up. Sand/dirt/seed mixture would be helpful
Fun Day with ACE on #16
We got a great rate, the course moved us up an extra 1.5 hours since rain was on the way! We played the front 9 at a decent pace, then stopped in the halfway house to wait out the rain! We headed for the back 9 as rain ended! Li and behold, on the 16th tee, our guy Jim, one of two leftys incl me, hit a sweet shot over the tall tree toward the right edge of the green! I said "that has a chance", meaning to get "on the green"! Jim and one other guy said it seemed to bounce and disappear, as if IN the hole! As we drove up, Jim looked in the hole, and (whoomp), "there it was"!!! After the round we asked if he can buy the flagstick! The young lady asked and they said no! Eaglewood sold it to me on my ace in 2004 for $20-I'm now speaking with Rick at the course who is still trying on our behalf! We will know more soon I guess!!! What a crazy day, incl a one-hour rain delay! Jim's first "ace" and first "eagle", by the way! Now we are hoping GG's Rick comes thru for us to get us the flag and/or flagstick from Jim's historic 189-yd ACE!!!
Pleasant course to play - trees can be a challenge
Green Garden Gold course is an enjoyable course to play with some forgiveness, but also some blind spots in the course layout that can cost strokes, if you are unfamiliar with it. Fairways and greens all in great condition. Tee areas were a bit soft and uneven on some holes, likely due to heavy play and rains. The grss off the fairways was deep enough to hunt for balls for awhile. The overall course though was still above average. I would definitely recommend the course.
Very nice
Greens were slow but in good shape. The fairways were in great shape.
Played the gold course.
Overall great course. Need more signs for next hole. It can get a bit confusing with the courses overlapping. Thoroughly enjoyed it. First time back since 2010. Course is in better shape now. Cart path need repair..
Making its way back
Green Gardens used to be a Gem, but got itself into pretty rough shape and I stopped playing there about 6 years ago. It had a great price and the tee time was right for me to play today, and the course is in really good shape. The greens where immaculate and played pretty tough. They are on their way back to being a gem in my book I will defiantly be back. Keep up the amazing progress Green Gardens
SLOW
we got moved from the gold course to the Blue course as the starter said it was backed up & would play slow-Well that was ok but we got stuck behind the slowest 4some ever to play 18 holes-actually it wasn't the 4some directly in front but in front of them-they backed the whole course up & we never saw a Marshall...other than that we all agreed it was a nice course & nice clubhouse-bar needs draft beer though!! We will go back again to play the gold course-next time we will wait for it though.....
Improving
I hadn't played here in a few years because the place was gradually turning into a dump. However, there was a good hot deal, and I heard some good things. So I figured I would give it another shot. Course conditions have improved. Not as good as they once were, but definitely a step in the right direction. Played as a twosome and got around the gold course in just under 4 hours in the afternoon. Greens were rolling a bit slow for my liking, but were generally in good shape. I'm glad to see things have taken a step in the right direction, and I will be back to play again.
Challenging and well kept
The course was very well kept, and the deal we found on GN was great. The holes are all clearly marked. Holes are all fairly long, I took my wife who prefers shorter courses.
Absolutely recommend giving this courses a try, you will enjoy your time. We played the gold course.
Much improved
Skipped playing here for 2 years. The Blue Course was in horrible condition the last time I played here. The course is in much better condition now. The owner passed away and now the son is running the place and giving it much needed attention. Worth a second chance!!
Improved
The last time I played here 4 years ago the conditioning of the course was not good to say the least. I decided to try it again because I heard it was in better shape, and I like the design of the Gold Course. Greens and tees were in great shape, the fairways still needed some work, but were not to bad. Green Garden is a bit of a trip but for the most part worth the drive
Improved - Greens much better
The course use to be in great condition 4-5 years ago. It went really downhill. My group moved to another course. I played it last year and the greens were terrible.
This time I played it, the greens were very nice. Will be playing it again. Hope they keep improving it. Got a great deal on Golf.Now.
Pleasantly Suprised
The course has been redesigned since I last played it. I liked the redesign. Course and greens were in excellent shape.
Wish they had GPS in the carts though.
great course!
This is a beautiful course, very challenging, really enjoyed my round. I've recommend it to some friends already. I give it two thumbs up!
