Nice course

Course was nice. Front 9 were in better shape than the back nine. but still really enjoyed the course. This was our second time playing here and will definitely come back!

Nice course with a style of it’s own.

I enjoyed the golf course because of the layout. Many of the holes are unique, lined with beautiful trees and scenic nature. We enjoyed our round today. Thank you.

Hardpan everywhere

Not a playable course around the greens, tee boxes longer than most fairways. Not worth the drive

Good local course.

Shady Oaks is a challenging course with tight fairways. The crew does a great job keeping it in overall good shape. Greens get a little less than beautiful as the year progresses, but most courses share this problem. I’d say golfers need to be more aware of things they can control…replace divots, throw broken tees away and fix ball marks should be pretty standard things! Help keep the course in good shape, don’t just visit and leave a mess in your path.

Shady Oaks Sublette

It is a scenic course with plenty of trees and a couple challenging holes. I like the staff and other golfers are polite and friendly. I'm not a member anywhere, but this is one of the local courses I really enjoy.
