Mystic Oak Golf Course in Waterloo has a diverse layout that seems to play a little differently each time you're on it. The layout features long, winding fairways and gently sloping greens, which are framed by a slew of strategically placed bunkers. There are also many water hazards that come into play throughout the golf course. The gently rolling terrain has subtle ups and downs that provide tricky uneven lies. The back nine is uniquely divided into three par 3s, par 4s, and par 5s each. The golf course will test your short-game skills but the lengthy par 5s offer driving opportunities for long hitters as well. Mystic Oak Golf Course is player friendly enough for a wide range of skill levels but you may be surprised to find yourself using all the clubs in your bag.

Enjoyable

First off, nothing to do with the course personnel. People, fix your ball marks. You can’t be that lazy or stupid! Overall we had a great round. The course was in good shape, a bit of grass clumps in the recently mowed fairways but nothing a foot wedge couldn’t remedy. Clean, newer carts that ran well. Yardage markers were close to exact distances. The price was the best, a buck a hole. Fantastic! We’ll be back. Thanks!

Golf fun. Food manager not so much

Golf course was fun. Staff friendly. However after the round we had dinner. The restaurant owner was very rude. Not only to us but another

Couple So much so that I will never eat there again. I do not have to be talked down to.

The server did a good job but she seemed to be stressed by the (restaurant owner).

So, WEmay play there again but will find somewhere else to eat.

Mystic Saturday

Overall pretty good condition. Some fairways and tee boxes still need some work but the improvements done to date are really great and it seems to be a positive trend.

Good value for your buck

Good layout, very difficult par 5s, above average par 3s, greens will hold a good iron. Probably harder than it course rating would indicate...especially from the Blue tees.

Above average food in the clubhouse served by a very cordial staff!

First Time Playing

Fun course

This course was enjoyable. I played in the early afternoon on a Monday and never had to wait for anyone in front of me during my round. The course had trees, lots of water, and elevation changes so it was a fun challenge. The tee boxes could've been a little better, but the course was in pretty good shape.

Pace of Play

The pace of play was so much better this time around compared to last time I played here. Not sure if it's cause I played here on a Friday instead of the weekend like last time. The greens have improved as well. The fairway and tee boxes could improve but for the price I can't complain.
