Layout forgiving

Good condition for late April.

Good course to play anytime especially early in season when you're a bit wayward due to winter layoff.

Fair price.

Good pace.

Good for those learning. Just hope u remember to rake ur footprints from traps.

A Good Average Coarse for high to medium handicappers

The course is inexpensive ,very flat /walkable and very wide open .

The staff is very friendly , it has a good bar /19th hole,and even gambling machines .

I think this is a nice course for high-end medium handicap players and may be a good practice course for the low handicappers

Worth the drive

Excellent layout. Challenging greens. 27 holes gives you more options and variety. Not long, but the shorter holes are well protected. Great course. The pro (Rob) is great - very outgoing and easy to talk to. The 19th offers a great u-shaped bar and refreshments to settle your scores, but does not have a kitchen so micro-meat and frozen pizzas are the only options. Absolutely a great course to try.

Shot 75 from Black tees

Play here for the first time, but had a friend to guide me to where to place the ball. The par 3 from the tips are rather long, a few over 200 yards. The rough are long and not easy to get out. The greens are true and in very good shape.

Well manicured

Course is in great shape. Fairways are open and wide. Greens are undulating and fairly fast. Rough is

not to long but thick and ball will nestle down. Course is flat but a cart is preferred because of distance from green to tee.

Nice, challenging course.

When I played Boone Creek the greens and fairways were in excellent condition.

This course has many wide fairways; however, it also has a lot of fescue. So stay on the fairways or in the rough. If you end up in the rescue (which, by the way, protects many greens), good luck finding your ball.

Fun Day at Boone Creek

A nice driving range and short game practice area. I played 18 of the 27 holes and the course was fun to play and in good condition especially the putting greens. I would recommend this course to others especially beginners, and youth. Thanks for a fun day of golf!

Short & Sweet

The course over all is not long but the greens are perfect! The course pace was great, you never had to wait at next tee. Enjoyed the light breeze and sunshine along with the course path. I found the fairway to be full of fresh cut grass and no leafs. Try it you will like it for beginners & intermediate players.
