The guy working the desk

Course was in great condition. The course has come along way over the years. The barn inside looks great and a good place to have food and drinks afterwards. To the gentleman working the counter this morning 8-29-21. There is ALOT to be desired form him, I don’t know if it was the full attitude of I’m a d-bag coming from him or if it was the I’m soo busy driving carts to the front and then walking to the counter to take your money. Well shoot for all I know he might have had a fight with the old lady and brought that nasty attitude in with him. Never less we still had a great time. Will be back to play soon.

Events

Don’t let people book a tee time if you’re not going to let them play the round they payed for. We booked an 11:30 tee time and they made us stop at 6 to move on to 10. They had an event that wasn’t disclosed until we checked in. Afterwards, we weren’t allowed the allotted time to finish the round that any normal game would’ve taken. And because of the event we were rushed on the back 9.

Great day for golf

Course is in really good shape considering the heat. It was 95° in the shade so I basically had the course to myself. I played 18 hols in 2 hours and 2o minutes. There are a couple of greens that appear to have been damaged otherwise course is in great condition. Great value for one of my favorite courses in the Lexington area. Highly recommend. The restaurant is open and food is really good as well.

Beautiful drive to get there - beautiful drives on the course

Being a flatlander from Kansas, my friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our round today. The drive past the horse farms to get to the course through the rolling hills whetted our appetite for what to expect once on the course. We loved it. Beautiful surroundings, well-kept homes throughout the routing of the course, uneven lies on the hilly terrain with numerous elevation changes...all in all, I had a blast. There were a few fairways needing some grass but the vast majority of the fairways allowed us to play 'it as it lies'. The greens were all smooth, putted true, and a good pace. Had an ultra-slow twosome waived the groups they were holding us up to pass, the pace of play would have received a 5* rating in that category. We'll be back on our next visit to the area!

Nice couse

Course is very nice. Definitely a shorter course even with the back tees.

Getting better

The course is under new ownership and new management and has improved pretty significantly versus previous seasons. It’s still a fairly short course with a few oddities (no bunkers, tee boxes that are actually back to back with one another, etc), but it’s a fun place to play and provides a good challenge with lots of elevation changes and some tricky water hazard and tree locations.

Getting Better

We play here quite frequently and the new ownership and management have made some definite improvements to the grounds around the clubhouse giving it a classier look. However, the restaurant and bar are temporarily closed - no mixed drinks or sandwiches, other than hot dogs. The pro shop still sells drinks and snacks.

Some fairways are receiving some much needed sodding but the rest of the course is in great shape with some of the best greens in the area. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is the cart paths. While they've filled in a few holes with a concrete mixture over the winter there's still a long way to go to get all of them into passable shape.

The new management has also lowered the rates to attract more daytime business so give it a try some afternoon. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Over priced course

I’ve play this course for years and it was always packed with customers and it progressed through the years so I thought and I played it this year for the first time and on a beautiful day it wasn’t even packed. It used to cost around 25 to 30 for the weekend witch for the course was a good price. It now cost 49.00 for play and the tees are still in bad shape and fairways still horrible. Because they installed a bar they increased the price. I will not return to this course because it’s overpriced and in horrible condition. I would rather play other expensive courses because I know their fairways and tees would be in great condition for the price they are charging

Great layout could use some TLC

Extremely fun and beautiful course. Fairways and greens could use a little attention but there is obvious effort. Other than trying not to break your back on some parts of the cart path it’s a great course for the money.
