Piper Glen Golf Club

Course is in ok shape. Greens and fairways needed watered. Many of the sand traps lack sand and not maintained. Tables, chairs and coolers left on course from outing the day before.

I appreciate the discounts we receive with Golfnow

After reading Golf Now course reviews, we decided to give Piper Glen another try. (We'd played the course in the fall of 2015, found it in terrible shape, and didn't go back. I'm happy to say PG has been given the TLC it needed. Bunkers could still use some work, but the fairways and greens are GOOD. The rough is thick and tough, the fairways are NARROW, and the greens are small and undulated. Be ready for a challenge, but the shape of the course can't be blamed for high scores now! ENJOY!!

Last time I played this course, it was in terrible shape, today it is in excellent condition.

Nice day and nice course to get in 18 holes of golf in the middle of winter!!

Fairways & greens are in excellent shape! Sandtraps are like most in Central IL, hard packed needing lots of new sand.

Overall the course is in great shape and worth playing especially at winter rates......

The fairways were in pristine condition and the greens were great but fast!

I have played this course several times this year since the bank foreclosed on deadbeat owner in 2015. The course has been restored to remarkable condition. It's not exceptionally long, however it's hills and doglegs make this a very challenging and fun course. Highly recommend giving Piper Glen another try if you haven't played in the last year!

I purchased the round online for a great price. Course is in great shape and has greatly improved over last year.

This is a challenging layout, but playable for most golfers. The restoration that has been done over the last year is making Piper Glen one of the nicest courses in the Springfield area again.

Tee box need CLEAN water in the ball washer, nod club cleaners that I saw. Rough had not been mowed, more like 3 cutting. Fairways on many holes were nice and soft. This was nice to see, however, green edges and putting surfaces had many dead spots. Also, the concrete cart path needs repairs, 3 foot holes under the slabs could be seen and, you were driving over this. Overall a good course compaired to others in this area. It is not worth 50.00 prime time but, 27.00 from GN was the correct rate

Finished round in 3 hours. Got a great rate on Golf Now. I agree with everything King and Even said in their reviews.

What used to be a pretty good track has been ruined by re-configuring the layout to 12 holes in order to put in some housing. The course is somewhat confusing, especially for first time players on the new layout. To play 18 holes you have to re-play nos. 1 thru 6 from different tee boxes which provide a different yardage and angle but using the same fairways and greens. Sound interesting but in reality is confusing, partly due to inadequate signage. Some of the more interesting former holes are gone now. The course was wide open when we played on a Monday afternoon but when the course is full the 6 overlapping holes would be a gong show with groups teeing off from different tee boxes to the same fairway. I would not recommend this course, especially at a summer weekend rate of $52.

Piper Glen Golf Course in Springfield is returning to a top standard. I had not played this course in several years. The course was a little different from the last time I played it. The course has went through some financial difficulties in the last year, when the previous ownership filed for bankruptcy. The new ownership group is working on returning Piper Glen to a top level golf course. The day I played the course was in the late afternoon when they offer a twilight rate. The fairways were great shape and so were the greens. The course is definitely making a comeback. You can tell some former bunkers are now filled by grass. Other than that, my playing experience was good. I will be back to play this course in the future.

Nice course. Good condition.

Was a hot day and all the water coolers were empty.

Can't count on the course to provide water.

Course has really improved. Greens were rolling very fast and fairways were in good condition. Great value!

I found the course to be challenging, yet fair. It is a shot makers course, given the various dog legs and S shaped fairways. The greens are in good shape (as are the fairways)with many contours. However I found them mainly sloping from back to front. Staying below the hole is paramount on these greens quick greens. If I had any complaint at all it would have been the tee boxes could use some attention, and as with most courses, extra yardage markers on the fairways would always be welcomed. But all things considered it was a fun and challenging course holding my interest and never became boring in the least.As far as pace of play, the two times I have played it thus far, the only thing that slowed me down was my golf game. I shall return soon

I holed out on 15. Great day.

Very nice, but rather challenging course with nice amenities. Course recently went through bankruptcy in 2015 but has rebounded nicely.
