Big Run Golf Club

A fun course for more accomplished golfers. If you can’t place your tee shots where they needed to be you will have difficulty reaching the greens due to all the big oak trees on the property. Some reviewers stated green are in bad shape but I thought they were fine and very receptive to your approach shots if you’re a decent iron player able to land your balls on the right tiers of the greens since many are double or triple tiered . Only thing is many of the approaches are blind due to the elevation. Now the fairways, there a lot of brown spots due to lack of water may be there are no irrigation systems on the fairways. Regardless they are still playable.

I played as a single. 4 or 5 foursomes let me thru and I was done with the front in hour and half until I caught up a foursomes with a man and three women who would not let me play thru on the back. I didn’t see any groups in front of them so obviously they lacked a little golf etiquette. I finished in four hours so not bad for a Sunday. Fun course to play and property is scenic so a little wait didn’t really spoil my round

Course is a little far about an hour drive for me but I still definitely will make a point to come back to play again.

If you live a little closer, go play it. You will enjoy it but make sure you bring your A game.

Third time playing at Big Run. Challenging course but always a great time. Open layout with beautiful scenery. Can be difficult to find your ball in the rough with all of the trees. Not a course I would bring Pro V1s to. Staff is friendly. Go check it out.

I play here quite often. So much to say about this course. It has massive potential to be a staple in the area.

The Good

Layout and holes are unique, fun, and challenging.

Price is fantastic, most nicer courses in the area are $90+

The Bad

Pace of play can sometimes be a problem

A couple of the employees are just straight up jerks.

The Ugly

The rough. Just fix it. Cut it. It’s way too long, which impacts the pace of play when balls are buried underneath 8 inches of FIRST CUT rough.

I’ve played this course twice now and was the first tee time both rounds so naturally pace of play was good for me. The fairways are lush and well groomed as were the greens and tee boxes. However, that’s about it. The sand is in rough shape and the rough look like they’ve never been cut. Not a great value either. Overall, it’s a good course. You won’t walk away wowed but you won’t feel like you got ripped off. There’s quite a few holes that are a blast to play and the box lengths and positioning allows you to make your round relaxed or very challenging.

I spent 6 hours for a round, some unbelievable players ahead of my team. We called to complain but no one come.

Definitely don’t waste your time. Fairways are patchy, greens are over watered and bunkers are unplayable. Pace of play was awful, had 4-6 groups stacked up on one hole for most of front 9 and all of back 9. Much better courses in the area for same or lower price.

Course is long and hilly. Definitely a good challenge. Course condition could be better but definitely a fun time.

Cart paths are in bad shape.

Roughs need some maintenance. Too many weeds and balls were easily lost because of the weeds

Rough is horrendous. Grass is about 4 inches and unable to locate your ball if it goes in the rough. Cart path and bridges are in terrible condition. One of the wooden bridges had planks lifting up. Course is pretty challenging but would not recommend due to the conditions. Definitely better to spend a couple bucks more and go to other courses in the area.

This course has the potential to be awesome if they would re-invest and fix the conditions of the course. This is a great layout, but the bridges seem unsafe, the dead trees could come down and kill someone soon and some of the tee boxes need work. The cart paths are more bumpy then riding on the course itself

The course is LONG and lots of fun. Always in good condition. It drizzled - so everything was wide open - YES!

Not a bad course. Difficult to find ball at times due to lack of mowing on some holes. No driving range which is a big miss. A little outdated.
