Nice course. Fast greens
Compared to the courses at home, the greens were like lightning! It was fun and challenging. Course was in great shape. Pace of play was a little slow on the front, due to a twosome that was having a VERY Rough day.
Very tough course in very good condition.
My only issue with the course was the green setup. Many pins were placed in unfair locations given how fast the green speed was. For example, on one hole, I had an uphill putt which ended up just short of the hole and the ball rolled backwards all the way off the green. When putting and chipping to the hole on several other holes, the ball rolled slowly past the hole and ended up off the green.
Best Public Course in Area
This course never disappoints. Even after a weekend of scattered thunderstorms the course remained in excellent condition. Very tough pin locations this weekend.
Well maintained and a good challenge
Windy conditions and sofgy after rains but in best shape after playing five other courses in the area this week. Greens were in excellent shape considering the conditions. Will return to play again.
Don’t expect your hotdeal to be honored.
Show up for my 11 o clock tee time for two that was already paid for. 80 bucks after fees. The kid at the desk tells me we only paid the rate for 9, walking. I show him the receipt showing that I paid for two, 18 holes, cart included. End up getting scammed out of another 24 bucks. At that point I had no other choice other than try and get my money back from golfnow, or just pay and suck it up. Won’t ever be coming back. Definitely not worth the money or hassle to deal with, just go play the rail or one of the city courses.
Challenging course but always fun to play!
We try to play this course every year. It has some very challenging greens to pot. That makes for a fun day. It’s a good course to sharpen up your skills on.
The only hiccup we had was the computer system wasn’t working properly when we tried to pay with credit card. We ended up paying cash which we fortunately had. Other than that a great day.
Impossible greens
Overall, the course is in decent shape. The layout is great. The problem is the greens are almost unfair. It seems like one of those golf course revenge set ups every time I’m there and yet I keep coming back. Plan on the greens costing you 5-8 strokes. Literally takes the fun out of good shots. Not sure why they set up the greens this way, but I probably will be choosing another course when I’m in Springfield again.
Tee boxes need work
Beautiful day for golf. Definitely a fun course. Tee boxes need a lot of work…they were pretty chewed up. Great course layout even for a mid-to-high handicapper. I’ll definitely play here again soon!
Great Course
Probably the most difficult public course in Springfield but as a high handicapper I still enjoy it because it's always in perfect condition and managed very well.
