Crafty course layout

Course design was fun, greens were FAST despite early May, pace of play was SLOW, and yardage was short.

Just, no

First off, I will strictly play this course if I have some hot deal plus a promo code to get it under $10... and even that is overpriced for the course. Fairways, tee boxes, and greens are very bad and even the rough is a dirt patch. Hole layout on front 9 isn’t completely terrible but wow is the back 9 awful. I went in the other day just for a driving range bucket and they said they just “upped their prices” and I inquired about riding 9 just to see what it was. $28 to ride 9 terrible holes that they simply don’t put any effort on. Several holes have a 1/3 of the fairway roped off as closed.

Not kept

The course layout isn’t the best.. very narrow and sharp turns. The tee boxes were pretty rough to say the least and the same goes for the fairways. If had paid the full price ($35) for 18 with a cart and not the golf now price, I would’ve been even more disappointed. Overall not great but wasn’t bad for the golf now special I received.

Mostly unchanged

Since the new owners have taken over you can tell that much has changed ! I know some things that haven’t changed is how the course is kept up ! 1st fairway is all chewed up since no one is replacing divots and it hasn’t been aurated since November , greens were rock hard like they hadn’t been watered in a month , if the would hire a greenskeeper or someone to help with landscaping and cleaning up a lot of the clutter this place can make money again ! As for the layout it hasn’t changed but the course needs kept up ! To many rock hard spots where you can loose balls with good shots !!

For December it was a great value!

December 22nd in Indianapolis is not normally golfing weather but today obliged so out I went!

Saddlebrook greens were in great shape and extremely fast! You can see where winter maintenance is happening all around the course so expect so less than great lies but overall a great value for the round. Bunkers, as most courses are these days, are not really playable due to time of year and lack of play during COVID.

Enjoy!

Very difficult greens

I greatly enjoyed the challenged of this course. The greens were particularly difficult with lots of undulations and for this time of year, they were very fast. Overall, a great experience for the money and I will definitely be back.

Well maintained course!

I was impressed with this course because it was well maintained and enjoyable even though this is mid-fall. The green was excellent; the fairway was astounding without leaves except for a few holes in the back nine. The tee box was in good shape, and the service staff was friendly. I will revisit this course!
