course in great shape
Have been playing this course about 6 times per yr since 2014 but lost interest because of deep ruff mostly front 9. This was my first visit back this yr & course was in great shape. Greens & fairways were great & ruff was much better. Hope they keep it up as I will return more often.
A good slow day
The greens were in great shape. The rough is what you expect from a Kentucky links-style course. It's a completely open layout with high grass guarding boundaries. The course was overbooked and the pace was extremely slow.
Thanks for your review! We're glad you had a good day and apologize for the slow pace of play. We hope you decide to come back and play with us again in the future.
Rough not mowed at all
You can be one foot off the fairway and can't find your ball. Low rate vs balls lost...hunting balls all round even on shots you think are pretty good. Ridiculous
We are so sorry to hear that your experience with us did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your feedback as we are constantly working toward improving our course. We will consider this internally and we hope you return to play another round with us in the future.
Great Course with Excellent Clubhouse
Great course for the money and has all the Kentucky Bourbon beers on tap (they are owned by the brewery). Have golfed here several times (annual vacation in Lexington) and have always enjoyed the course.
wadsworthrob,
Thanks for your review! We're happy to hear that you enjoyed the course. Hope to see you soon!
It had been awhile since we've played here.
It had been several years since we have played this course, and we were very pleased with condition and worked that has been done..#5 par 3 has had a total overhaul...beautiful hole...
chester1101,
We are thrilled to hear that you were pleased with our course! Come back and play again soon!
Good course
Course was in great condition but the staff needs to be educated on golf etiquette. The mowers will not stop for you to hit the ball and literally will drive 10feet away from you while you swing. This happened multiple times.
andy8497046,
Thanks for your review. We appreciate your feedback and will address it internally. We do hope you come back and play again soon.
Overall great course
The par 5s on this course are legit par 5s. Every other hole seemed like a par 3 which i did not personally like. The rough was extremely long so if you don't hit fairways plan on spending extra time looking for your ball. Even the fairway grass was a little long. But overall is was a really good course and offered some challenges. There were also a lot of blind tee shots too
We appreciate you taking the time to write a review about your experience with us. Thank you for the 4 star rating, we hope to see you back soon!
April 2016
Connemara is always good value for your money. Greens are still a bit firm and bumpy, fairways are magnificent - but as usual the tee boxes are a balancing act and the rough is way to long. At 6+" it makes finding you shot very hard and slows play to a crawl at times. Plus the height is dangerous to play. Where not at the U.S Open people
Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review about your experience with us. We appreciate the 4 star rating and we hope to see you again soon!
Good
The rough was thick, and lost good tee shots. Overall a good course to play at, Greens have been aerated in the last 2 or 3 weeks.
Thank you very much for the 4 star review! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your time with us. We hope to see you back soon!
Enjoyed Connemara
Good value to ride 18 holes. Enjoyed the day very much.
Thank you very much for the 4 star review! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your day and hope to see you back soon!
Early Season Review
First round of the year for me and first time at this course. Lucky to join a couple local guys that new the layout.
The practice area is very solid. Large well kept short game area and a good driving range.
The pro shop is nice as is the 19th hole although relatively small.
As a quick foursome we kept pace with the group in front. Never had to wait and the group behind us always seems a full hole back. There were several groups at the first tee lined up though. Not sure why the tee times weren't being followed.
The course still has some dormant areas and the spring mowing schedule hasn't started up for them yet. Bunkers still need freshened up for the season.
The course layout left something to be desired. The terrain they built it on however; forced the design. Several boring holes on the course that don't require imagination or don't have any originality. Several blind tee shots made it very nice having locals with me otherwise it would be tough picking a good landing area. The stretch of Holes 5 - 9 are the best stretch on the course. Well setup, good visuals, and they require some creativity. The rest blend together a bit.
Overall it was a fun round and I'm really interested to see if the course gets spruced up for the spring growing season.
Thank you very much for the 4 star review! We hope we will see you back again soon!
Incredible Improvements
Thanks to Alltech and the great staff this course has improved tremendously since new ownership. Improvements are made day in and day out to help make this one of the nicest courses in central Kentucky.
kjfrit3 - Thank you very much for the 5 star review! We are thrilled to hear that we are one of the nicest courses in central Kentucky! We cannot wait to see you out on the course!
Excellent value
This course has amazing views and has a variety of challenges based on your skill level. Playing from the white tees eliminates many of the blind shots on the course, but playing back from the blue tees can turn this course into a devil! Great staff and amazing course.
Thank you for taking the time to review your experience with us. We hope to see you again soon!
Amazing First Round
The greens and fairways are kept up very well. The tee boxes are
flat with no weeds and the greens are not dry.
The carts are a little slow.
Connemara
Great course. Always great staff. Course is in good condition. Challenging but forgiving course
Thank you so much for the amazing review! We're glad to know that our staff was great and that you enjoyed the course! We hope to see you back sooner than later!
great time
My first time playing the course. Staff greeted me when I walked in the door. Extremely friendly! The course was in great shape and the greens were well maintained. I will definitely be going back!
Thank you so much K for the 5-star review! We appreciate you taking the time to let us know your enjoyed your round and the course conditions! We look forward to seeing you out on the course again!

Great experience and a very good lay out. Enjoyed all aspects of the day and the course. Highly recommend!
Wow, thank you so much for the amazing 5-star review! We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience with us! We look forward to having you back soon!
Third course has been well taken care of esp considering the lack of rain
Great course to play. Fairways and greens are in excellent condition. Friendly staff as always.
Thank you Jon for your great review! We can't wait to have you back at the course!
Interesting layout
Very pleased with course conditions. Fairways and greens were in great shape...kudos to the grounds crew! Drove a little over an hour to get to the course, but it was well worth it. Front nine had basic layout with nice landscaping and trees...back nine was more links style. All in all, very pretty course!
Thank you SSummers for the amazing 5-star review! We're glad to hear that even after an hour drive, it was worth it! We hope that you would consider making the drive again! We would love to see you back out on the course!
Tough and tight.
Greens were incredibly fast with almost mini-golf type breaks. Pin positions were sometimes one pace from fringe. Out of bounds surrounds most greens. Small hard to hit greens. Very challenging course, but overall great conditions and well set up. Would play again if the opportunity arises.
Thank you so much for the great review! The course can be a little tough but we're glad to hear you still had an enjoyable round. We hope the opportunity arises and you come back soon! Thanks again!
Thank you for your 5 star review! We are glad to hear that you have noticed improvement in our course. We will go to all efforts to keep it up so that you keep returning!
