Good for price

Course is in pretty good shape. A few greens have some bare spots due to disease. Fairways on back nine must have been long and wet when mowed. Clumps of mowed grass all over the fairways. The staff is always great. About 4.5 hrs to play. A little slow but this course can get really slow. You get a ton of ignorant golfers looking for their ball in the heather for ten minutes per hole. If that's you, buy cheap balls, drop, and move on!!!

Disappointed

Course is in overall terrible shape. Greens and fairways are pretty well shot. Course is usually in relatively good shape. Heard that there is new ownership, maybe they don't know what they are doing or don't have the finances.

Course conditions were average, but they are coming around. This is a very good course and very challenging! They have been doing work on the bunkers and the greens could be better. I would recommend this course to anyone, the staff is great!

Course is in need of attention

It appears the course might be struggling financially. I played it in the past and it was nice. The greens are really poor and most of the traps do not have sand. they have been neglected.

Not the course it was two years ago.

Hot and humid!!

Course layout is great, and fairway condition was good. No tree and little water trouble, but lots of sand traps in fairways and surrounding the greens. Greens were in very poor shape, with lots of small bare spots that made them bumpy, and some very large areas with no grass at all. Some traps might as well be filled in to make grass bunkers. A few are very large and deep directly in front of the green with no sand in them. They've looked like they were under construction for some time now. I love the layout and would play here more if the greens and traps were better shape.

Course should be closed

I have played this course several times over the years and it has been in a steady decline in terms of condition. It has finally hit rock bottom. Many of the bunkers have not been maintained and have tall weeds growing in them. ALL of the greens have dollar spot and it affects the roll of the ball. The 17th green has a large patch of dirt that has been painted green. We got a hot deal for $16 each and the course was not a good value at that price. You can find other places to play. Do not waste your time or money here.

Great layout but greens and sand bunkers need massive work.

This links style course has a great layout. It's long enough to challenge the advanced golfer but can be forgiving to the beginner. The staff was very friendly and accommodating which always makes the experience very nice. However, there has been several reports going back to last month regarding the horrible conditions of the sand bunkers. Sadly it seems there has been no changes. While I was fortunate to avoid most of the bunkers those playing in my group was not so lucky. The bunkers are in dire need of sand and in several cases repair. While most of the greens are in ok condition, several are suffering from a fungus and neglect. I paid $22.00 as part of the Hot Deal on Golf Now so I'm not too upset. The price was about what you would pay for a course in this condition. However, it's hard for me to recommend this course to anyone giving these issues. I would have been happy to pay more if the bunkers and greens were in better condition. I hope they rectify these issues as I would love to come back and play this course again.

Little rough around the edges

Overall this course is in excellent condition. They are redoing some of the bunkers which are close to 6 feet deep in some areas Very generous fairways but you missed the fairways and get into one of those bunkers it's severely penalizes you. The structural integrity of the restrooms on the course is highly questionable At one time we wondered if they should not generate their time to make those structures usable again Because a portable restroom was very close by

Good course, almost great

Fun course that presents different challenges in different ways on each hole. Some holes barricade your tee shot with fairway bunkers. Others line a tight fairway with wispy grass. A couple of greens need some work, but the tee boxes, fairways, and rough were in fine condition. Overall, I'd recommend to a friend, so not too shabby.

Brutal

This course was nothing short of brutal! A lot course repair going on.. If you hit the sand, you could lose a ball (liked this guy) in the mud. Also bunkers are guarding the greens on a lot of holes like secret service protecting the President! It was a rough round!

Trying hard

Heartland has had its ups and downs. Initially, it was roundly criticized for too many bunkers, many were later taken out to speed pace of play. That continues, but now as part of an overall upgrade/reconditioning of a real issue with the course. Always a good layout, it's quite lush as are most area courses with such a wet spring. They are steadily replacing sand and filling in what had been extremely large bunker complexes. Rare for the area, it wasn't too windy, but the green generally played fast. Clubhouse/bar area has been upgraded and you can tell they are making an effort to expand play with di$counted TUE green fees.

This is a long course for average golfers. Most of the par 4's from the blue tees play 400 yards. Amazing advantage on course length from the women's tees. Almost stupid.

Walked

Well bunkered track with some interesting holes

This golf course allows for a lot of sprayed tee shots in the right places but many greens require pinpoint ball striking to hit them. I was fortunate enough not to find a single greenside bunker on my way around, so I cannot comment on what they were like. Holes 15-18 play very tough and I shot +8 on just those few to ruin an otherwise excellent round (I was +2 through 10 and well on my way towards a personal best). My iron play (a lot of mid irons, very few wedges) was pretty spot on most of the day, but the distance was enough to keep things plenty challenging.

I played the gold tees, which played even longer than advertised, as the markers were pushed into the back tee box on hole 12, playing as another 450 yard par 4. This made for four par 4s playing 440 yards or more that day. Hole 15 is excellent yet extremely tricky. The angle off the tee is tricky to judge, and the green has a hollow that catches balls hit too long and numerous bunkers in front Note: the tall grass in front of the banana shaped teeing grounds caught my tee ball. I hit another and it was caught by the grass too, but it mysteriously made its way into the middle of the fairway about 220 yards out. Either tee the ball near the back of the box or take less than driver for some extra loft. Holes 12 through 15 might be the most scenic on the course, and number 10 has a tiny green right up against a water hazard. Other holes had lots of bunkers off the tee around 240-265 yards out, which were the perfect distance for gobbling up any slightly errant tee shot. Play it from the right markers and you're constantly trying to working your way around the traps off the tee. If you're going to play from the gold markers or further back, make sure you can hit the ball a decent ways or else you'll be hitting nothing but long irons and fairway woods into all of the par 4s. It really does play that long.

The course is generally flat and easily walkable, while holes 13, 15, and 17 all feature elevated greens. Speaking of the greens, they were actually in excellent condition and rolled true when I played at a moderate pace around stimp 9 or so. What made the gold tees playable is that the rough was not particularly punitive, and I hit several greens in regulation from it. With a heightened premium on accuracy combined with the length it would be an extremely challenging course.

Great Layout....not so great condition.

Have played this course many times, used to be one of my favorites, but condition of the course has deteriorated in the past several years, mainly the bunkers. If the bunkers cannot be maintained they should be removed/replaced with grass. They keep offering deals to get play, but if they would get the course in better condition they could charge a decent price and still attract players. Side note to staff: Your canned responses to comments from reviewers do not come across as genuine, better to leave them out. The fact is that little has been done for some time to "improve" the course conditions, which have been on a downward spiral for many years.

This course is challenging

love the challenge but if you hit good shots you can score.not much sand in the bunkers but if you want more sand - go play a course where you pay more. Just rake it and then replace your ball - we are not on the pro tour.
