Immaculate Greens, Fast and Pure!!!

Over all, the course was is great shape. Fairways rolled out and the greens were fast and pure. I did not have one single issue with any pitch marks, the greens were absolutely perfect. The course layout is very interesting. They have three 9's, Valley, Prairie & Creekside. I played the Valley & Prairie. The Valley course is only 2900 yards from the tips. I was only able to use my driver one time because of the doglegs and trouble, and that was on the 433 yd 9th hole. The Prairie course was longer, 3175 from the tips and was a totally different layout, so I was able to hit driver on all the par 4's & 5's. The only issue I noticed while playing, was that their bunkers do have small peebles mixed in with the sand, I personally was not in any of them but the guys I was paired with were and they took the time to rake the peebles away before hitting. Over all, I'd highly recommend this course, it was one of the best conditioned punlic courses I've played on all year, and doing it for $30 bucks via a hot deal made the experience even that much better!

Won’t be back.

Long time golfer at this course. Will not be back. Not because of the course, not because of MOST of the staff, but will not be back because of the proshop staff, specifically, a wonderful person named Bruce.

You could not be more condescending, rude, and/or a crabby person to work at a course. Note to other golfer, go to another crappy course that costs 50 bucks and avoid have ti deal with someone who thinks they can speak to patrons the way they do and act all high and mighty.

And to Bruce, find another profession, bro.

Everything Awesome

I played a sunset round for my first time at Boone Creek for a $15 hot deal and had the best golfing experience in recent memory. The staff is extremely friendly, and the courses are maintained so well. There’s a total of 27 holes (3 9-hole courses each with their own name and style) and it’s located in a beautiful area with trees and long grass perfectly set into the scenery. Will definitely be playing again very soon, and bringing friends!

Fun Course - Different Ways to Play

This course is unique in that they have 27 total holes to play. They rotate every 2 weeks which course is the 9 hole course, and which 2 combine to the be the 18 hole course. My group and I played the Prairie course which was lots of fun. The greens were all well maintained and in great shape. The course itself has wide and mostly open fairways which made finding our shots relatively easy. Overall we all enjoyed the experience and will definitely be back for future rounds and to try the other courses!
