Pace of play
3 hours to get through 9 holes. No ranger to keep up with pace of play. It was a literal free for all. Let management know at the turn, they don’t care. 7 groups on the 10th hole. Tried to get a rain check and they said to call Golf Now. I have been unable to get a refund on the 9 holes I refused to play.
Green were ok, some were wet some were extremely dry. Hard to get a feel. No rangers, no water jugs, no bev cart. Hard to put this in the top 10 courses in Kentucky. Sad it used to be in better condition
Trees needed
Course is in good shape considering how dry and last month was. But new trees are desperately needed on hole 3 to help protect oncoming traffic on Richardson Rd. Right-handed slicers can easily put drives into the roadway.
Solid course
Course was in good condition and the staff was really friendly.
Rough Condition
The course is not in good shape. Disappointing to see it decline so much from the start of the season.
For better experience
Seems like everyone working near clubhouse and none on course. No cart concessions on course. Need water jugs on course on six tee and near storm shelter between 14 green and 15 tee at very least. Mow greens lower to eliminate some of the grain.
League Nights strategy
If you are looking to get in a twilight 18 when league play is running, try checking in :45 early and watching for a gap on the turn. Lots of very slow groups out there, but it can work to your advantage if they fall too far behind.

Thank you for the great rating, u314164376337. Hope to see you back soon!

Early Father’Day Gift
The course was in great shape and sped around Wilows in just under 3.5 hours. The greens were firm
But fair and fairways and rough appropriate. I did t hit all
My best shots but was able to play and nets isome pars!

Cart paths are rough
Fairways and greens were nice as usual. The staff was great. Only negatives were the cart paths are pretty bad, and lots of washed out areas in the rough. So if you play in the fairway and hit the greens you are fine. Unfortunately I spent a lot of time in the rough so it was a tough day for me.⛳🤣

Solid Course
Pretty nice day to be out there, the fairways and greens were in great condition, only downfall this time was we got stuck behind a bigger group and the group behind us was also stuck. But that stuff happens, will play again

Hey Zachary, thank you for the 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the course conditions. We hope to see you back soon!
Not allowed to play my tee time.
There was an unannounced tournament and I was not allowed to play my tee time. Awful place.

We’re thrilled to hear you had a positive experience; we would love to see you back on the course soon!
Thank you for the great rating, Samuel44. Hope to see you back on the course soon!
