Tmick
I golf there fairly often. Nice people, pleasant course.
Perfect for an occasional round
Fun Course, Fair Prices!
Fun course and very fair prices! Staff is great and everyone that plays there are friendly.
First time here
Had a great time especially for our first time here. Would recommend to any one. Greens a little rough but not to bad
Poor experience
Drove 45 minutes in the rain to find out the course was closed. Very disappointed to not get a phone call ahead of time.
Poor customer service
My issue isn't with the course itself, although I have played here a couple times and it's below average at best (Poorly maintained fairways that are indistinguishable from the rough, slow greens, etc). It is what it is; a course for chops. My issue is this: We made a tee time for Saturday morning, and although it was raining a bit, decided we would still play. We drove all the way to the course to find out the course was closed due to 1-2 inches of rain that fell overnight. I can see not allowing carts out (although a herd of buffalo could run across this course and it wouldn't make much difference), but if you're going to close the course due to a small amount of rain at least have the courtesy to call the person who made the tee time and let them know not to come out.
Disclosure: I did not make the tee time, but my friend who did said he gave them his number.
Some people enjoy playing in the rain. It softens the course and keeps away the shirtless, denim wearing, ac/dc blasting from the cart masses.
My opinion: If you're a chop who wants to have a good time with your bros, play here. Everyone else head a little farther north, pay a little more money and play TCI.
Little Gem
This was not my first time golfing this course, however each time is more fun. Course is well maintained and you want to stay in fairways as rough is deceivingly deep. For the money this course has to be one of the better values in the Des Moines area.
Good Course, friendly staff, good time.
Woodland is looking great. The course is in great shape, the holes are fun yet challenging. Always a good time golfing here.
Great value
Great value. This course offers specials like all courses should.
Greens were mowed close, played fast and challenging
I've played Woodland Hills many times. It's always challenging for the boggie golfer. I have a 16 handicap so this course can make me feel good about my game.
Nice golf course
Played on Monday afternoon and not very many on the course so we played at a good pace with no waiting. Course was in good condition but tee boxes needed some attention. Greens rolled really well and held most approach shots. We enjoyed it and would recommend it to friends. Only negative comment would be having the parking lot across a busy road.
Get what you pay for
Greens were extremely slow, would rather pay more and play somewhere else. Course is short distance wise. Rough, greens, and fairways all needed mowed.
Good deal
Booked tee time the day before, staff was very friendly and allowed me to tee off before my time to get me ahead of a foursome. Caught up with another single, we played a few holes but he ad to leave after 9. Finished the last nine alone but was an enjoyable time. After the round sat and had a few beers (very reasonable prices) with other golfers that had finished. A pleasant day, look forward to playing there again.
Great shape
The course is in great shape. However the pace of play is very slow. Mainly because there are beginner players out there and are hacking balls all over the place. I can understand though. It is Friday , nice and much better than work. I play woodland several times a year. Don't cut the corner on hole 3. Play it up.
So don't care
Nice course. Staff could care less if you are there or not. Want this course to be fantastic
Course is short
Play was very slow,no one there to address the flow of the groups.It took way to long to play 18.
Back nine a real challenge
Course is in good shape considering the drought Iowa is in at this time. Told the manager my name, he look at the computer, handed us two keys for carts and said we could start as soon as we were ready. When we turned the corner to start the back nine, he made sure we didn't have anyone in front of us. Great place to play and great staff.
Balanced easy and challenging holes
I played with my 9 year old son the course is very nice and well maintained, we will be back
Short and fun
The course is in good shape for $29. The only complaint is that our first 9 holes too 3 hours. It was a Saturday, but it was slow. They were helpful inside and gave us a rain check for the second 9.
