White Deer Run Golf Course

This is the 2nd upscale course (Ruffled Feathers) that I have played in the last week and once again this course is not worth the regular green fees that they charge, but well worth what I paid on Golf Now.

The course was in very good condition with the exception of the sand traps which could have used more sand. There was no consistency with the traps. The slope rating in my opinion was way to high (135 from the regular tees). the layout is really good though.

Course was always in good shape. Not sure what happened as of late.

Our first visit this spring to white Deer Run was a disappointment, course was not nice after a tough brutal winter. Glad to report course is in pretty good shape, had a great time as usual! Will be back often!

I used to play here in early 2000's. Place was magnificent then. Prices then started to go up and it got too $$$. Just went back due to a a great rate on golf now and played thurs. WOW have things changed for the worse. Bunkers are like municipal courses. Greens are beat up. Its not worth it anymore. so many other choices at better prices. Sad to Report!!!!

Beginners take heed -- this course is not for the faint of heart. Definitely recommend <25 handicap.

I've played this course a few times. I've seen it in better condition (the first two or 3 greens are not in amazing shape, couple of dead spots in the fairway), but overall this is a well-manicured course. The staff are friendly and the food inside is decent. My biggest recommendation is to look for deals on GolfNow before deciding to play. Playing here for $89 (the weekend rate) has average value -- playing here for $60 (like I did today) has great value.

Course was fair (besides the bunker) and greens were a little slow but otherwise great conditions. Carts with GPS are incredibly helpful and there was no one out there at noon on a Tuesday.

Course was in really nice shape. Greens were receptive and rolled nicely. The rain had really helped this course.

For many years, I have been wanting to play this course. I wish I would have done it sooner. It is the right mix of challenging and easy holes.

The fairways and greens are well taken care of. The gps in the carts is really awesome. It was a delight to play, and I look forward to my next round there!!

We did not get anything to eat this time. Maybe on the next visit.

great course, wide fairways looks easy but very challenging
fast greens

Friendly Staff, very courteous and helpful. Course is beautiful and challenging to play.

I booked on Golf Now, I was with another friend. They paired us up with a twosome of women ( not a problem with me) then sent us to start on the tenth hole. Then told us cart path only. This is a very wide course and that was a problem. The course was also completely saturated! The entire course must have just been fertilized and then soaked by the sprinklers. I noticed the white t box markers were dyed green. They never told us any of this until I paid. The fairways and even the rough was like a swamp.

Great course. Always love playing here. Choose is always in great condition

The weather was ideal, the course was in good condition with the exception of some rough and badly blemished greens. Still a fun time.

The first 8 holes are pretty bland, with kind of a Florida, condo golf, feel. The 9th plays around a lake with large trees present, totally different than the other holes. The back is a bit better, with water in play on a number of holes. 18 is back by the lake, which is a pretty and challenging finish. There was potential here, but so many houses on the course ruins the atmosphere. The greens had also been recently aerified and were very bumpy and slow, which is unheard of for late May. It might have been nice for the course to mention that when the tee time was booked.

Course is in very good condition. Lots of geese on the course so watch your step. Very challenging track. Very challenging track. If you're not a legit 18 or below who can drive it 230+, play the whites or shorter.

No rangers to move players in front along. 5 hour round which is unacceptable.

Rough is too long which slows play

Overall this is normally a great course, the poor rating for the course conditions and value for the money is specific to the fact that the greens are not ready for play, weather has been poor this year, but they are completely under repair due to the aeration that was done recently. Would have been nice to know this in advance as I would have waited to play there until they were ready and played a different course. They had no problem charging basically the normal fee (although I'm sure they will say it was "discounted" due to this)

Wait until at least the end of May 2014 to play if you are considering playing here, or you will not enjoy the round due to the greens.

Somehow, it would be helpful if GolfAdvisor would make note of when greens are aerated. One of the "wows" on this course was supposed to be the greens...no so much when every green is aerated and unfilled. I felt like I wasted half of the greens fees, because putting was a waste of time. Lots and lots and lots of bunkers filled with tough, clay-like sand. Very disappointed in what could have been a really class course.

White Deer Run is a really good course with a lot of variety in its design. It is a fairly tough course to score low on, but there are no gimmicks. They do not discount often, so take advantage when you can find something here!

Played near seasons end - conditions appeared unkept, leaves were not removed from many playing areas, bunkers were poorly maintained/ no rakes in many of them. Greens were fast.
