Bridges of Poplar Creek Country Club

After playing here during the early spring in much cooler temperatures, I was ready to come back and experience this course again with warmer weather conditions. While this course isn't very long and I should likely be playing from the tips, I opted for the gold/black tee combination which plays just over 6200 yds.

The staff within the pro shop was very friendly, but unfortunately the pace of play was much slower than I prefer but about average for most weekend rounds at about 4.5 hours. I was allowed to play as a single, but unfortunately I knew I wasn't going anywhere quickly as there were multiple foursomes ahead of me. To make the most of the slow conditions, I spent about 5-10 minutes on each green just chipping, putting, and practicing bunker shots as I usually had a 1-2 hole gap between another foursome behind me.

I thought the greens were rolling quite well, and the bunkers were in good condition despite being a little packed down with some rain earlier in the day. Following lots of rain in the past week or two, there was still some standing water in some areas of the rough but most of the fairways were in reasonable. I think my only criticism was that fairways seemed to be a little shaggier than what I'd prefer, and the rough hadn't been recently cut. While the longer rough can make a shorter course more challenging, as a public course that gets a fair amount of play, I think this is unfavorable as it significantly slows down play. However, I think the main reason for the long rough was due to the wet conditions that likely prevented maintenance from mowing it earlier in the week.

All in all, this is a good option for golfers looking for a slightly shorter course, but one that offers a variety of well designed holes to enjoy. I'll be back again.

Really nice course, even with the course being air raided it played well. The layout made the course really worth doing again and I will!!!!

Its been a while since golfing the course due to a few years ago charging full price and showing 1 temp green online when in fact there was 5.. The course played well. Greens were in good shape and soft. 17 hole is a nice par 3 that will challange you.

Decent track, not in great shape though. Pace of play was slow. There are better courses for the same rate in the general area.

10:17 tee time on a Sunday and finished right at 2:20. Was pretty surprised to finish in 4 hours on a Sunday. The course and greens were in good shape. Would play again.

We played from the tips. The course was challenging

and the greens were in good shape. I would definitely play it again.

the fees, after discount, are higher than last year. There are many competitive courses that are a little bit better deal. faireays tight vs 1.5 " rough. this made club selection more difficult

overall good condition, greens were excellent. true, quick, and consistent

Not a bad course, can tend to be slow pace and a round can take over 4 hours.

I probably would play here again but only using a hot deal.

Monday’s come with a free hotdog/brat which was a welcome surprise.

Well it is kind of early in the year but course is going to be in great shape.

This course was my home track back in high school (class of 2004) and used to be kept up very well. I had not played here in awhile and was disappointed. The round took 5 hours and greens were scuffed up all over the place. I was fortunate to not have to hit in the drop area but my buddies lost extra strokes and balls hitting off of them. I surveyed it and it’s basically grass seed on top of sand traps. The super must have a good laugh watching guys hit off of it. Too bad but this course was a joke.

I’ve played poplar 10-20 the past few years and it seems to continue to get worse. The greens were beat up with holes, sandy spots and divots galore. I have always know this course to be outrageously priced for what you get, but at least it was well kept. It is no longer well kept and I would not even play this course again for the $30 I paid over the weekend. All summer they charged $60-80 a person, why haven’t they used that money to take care of the place? You will not be getting my money again.

Great staff , Great course , Great value for the money , Great Conditin , & Excellent layout .

Mostly a last minute try on a new course. Played with my GF who likes golf but needs a somewhat forgiving course. This has lots of forced caries over water. If played to plan and good with your mid irons not a problem. Otherwise bring lots of balls. Because of this she played her best round ever. Think it helped her concentrate more with all the OB trouble. Nice greens. Decent fairways. Decent sand in bunkers. Tee boxes a little worn. Overall a nice course and we got a great deal on Golf Now. Give it a try.

The Tees, Fairways & Greens were in very good shape. The Beverage cart girl was by every 3-4 holes. Going out we made the turn in 2:05. Which was great for a Sunday! Coming in (2:30) was another story. We caught a 4-some on 11 playing the Blacks, they should have been on Gold or Greens. There was a full hole open in front of them. We waited on every shot on the way in. The pin placements didn't help. But, we will certainly consider playing here again during the week.

Course was in very good shape, staff was very friendly and helpful. Carts with GPS is a great feature. Golfer courtesy of repairing ball marks on greens is not the best. Since it was Monday and/or Labor Day each paid round came with a Hot Dog/Brat and drink - nice add-on. Overall could not ask for more.
