Short but Solid

Not terribly long, even from tips, but a great challenge. Course is well maintained, greens roll very true. It makes you think about your shots, strategize and overall makes for a really fun round. Paths need some work, but course was in great shape.

Sneaky Challenge

The course length may lead some to believe it will be an easy course, but it has some sneaky challenges. A good portion of the holes can get pretty tight with the trees. The greens are faster than most, but aren’t overly difficult. However, the pin positions for our Friday afternoon round were quite challenging. Course is pretty well maintained except for a couple wet/dry spots off in the rough on a few holes. Great for the price; if I travel back down to Indy I will probably try to play this course again.

Mis Communication

Got to the course and Pro Shop was wondering why Golf Now allowed me to book 18, Apparently they had a league so only 9 holes were open. We had to play the back 9 twice to get in our 18 holes. As you can imagine with ALL others but league players going off on the back 9 if was extremely crowded and much waiting. Course grass was long - probably due to wet weather.

90 degree day, no water

90 degrees, high humidity, no outside coolers allowed on the golf course and the only water was at the club house. Completely ridiculous. And not safe.

Golf here not Brickyard.

Do you want to be rushed and judged when you golf? If so go to brickyard. But if you want a relaxed round with excellent libations, go to saddlebrook. . The course is well maintained and the staff is friendly. The most relaxed and enjoyable round in a long time. Well worth the price of admission

Miss communication between golf now and saddlebrook

When I arrived they did not have my reservation made for 10:10am on may the 16th. I was lucky to get in. Not sure I’ll use golf now again. But course was in great shape and challenging. Great place to play for the money.
