Walden Golf Club

So I arrived 10 minutes prior to tee off, waiting 5 minutes, no one still. Decided to go change, came back, still no one. I had to go searching for a staff member that would take my money. I walk out the door and the only pleasant surprise was a new golf cart. I head to 1st tee...needless to say this is the worst maintained course I have EVER played on, I could all the problems but there is not enough room. Here are the worst errors: bare dirt tee boxes, no yardages, bare fairways, and to top it off, just aerated greens with enough sand applied to them to pass for the Sahara.

Let me start with the point that the turf crew were aerating the greens when I golfed, so I did not get a great performance out of my putting game much to my chagrin as I was in the zone on everything else.

The course was in fantastic shape with some truly fantastic holes. The tees were in great shape despite the fact that it is at the end of the season. There were several tees that had been re-sodded in parts and appeared relatively recent. It is nice to see a Super take that much care heading into the end of the season.

Fairways were lush and had a great mix between being narrow and wide.

The course is quite challenging, at least for a relative novice like myself, with a good bit of elevation changes, numerous forced carries and well placed traps and bunkers. If you aren't on it, you can lose quite a few balls easily.

I got a great deal through Golfnow, but even at regular price, I will most definitely be coming back for more rounds.

Me and my friend who play once a week played here on a Thursday morning and it was great. The course wasn't too busy so we never felt rushed to finish our round. The only few complaints we had about the course is the rough was very soft so your ball sank into the grass due to it being a little longer then normal. Also a few of the greens had bare patches and it made putting on them very unpleasant.

The golf cart we had had very awful brakes and was had to stop or keep stopped on a hill and was a little annoying.

The fairways of the course were very well maintained not very set even though we had rain two days prior. The tee boxes were in awesome shape with tee positions in challenging spots for the pin locations.

The pro shop was very pricy on the 3 drinks we bought costed $9

My girlfriend and I really enjoyed this course. The course was very strategically designed which made it more challenging but a lot more fun in my opinion. On most holes using your driver would get in you trouble. Fairways and greens were great. Only flaw I noticed is that there were very few yardage to green markers. But, I think I'm spoiled with every where else I play so this only made it a little more challenging. Lots of fun!!

Had a 7:32 tee time . The course had let several groups play with five. Made the course play slow for the whole round!! What course would allow multiple groups of five on a Sunday morning who were NOT accomplished golfers. No rangers to be seen. WILL NEVER PLAY AT THIS PLACE AGAIN!!!!

The course was very narrow and contains some difficult water traps. As a beginner it seemed to swallow balls as a result. The course is located in a residential neighborhood and tons of houses surround the course. We heard quite a few other groups hit off decks, roofs, and siding; but luckily no windows. You do have to cross the street with your cart several times.

The greens were in rough shape and the tee boxes were even worse, doesn't look like they were moved around much or tended with feed mix. Didn't end up in a sand trap but they looked okay from what I saw passing by.

Course wasn't crowded but staff was MIA upon arrival, took about 10-15 minutes to get a cart since no one was covering that spot when we showed up, once we did we immediately went out without a starter spacing groups, possibly because it seemed to be a slow day. The staff we met were friendly but the setup seems disorganized.

Probably would not go back but that's more to do with not wanting to risk breaking a window or losing balls in water traps than being put off by poor course conditioning.

Positives: nice gas cart with ball & club washers in the back. Cheap round with available times.

Negatives: poor course conditions and disorganized staff.

Great course, a lot of bang for your buck. Recommend to anyone

I thought I would give the course another try. The first time I played the greens and fairways were in poor shape. I was so glad I tried it again. The course isn't particularly long but the tree line fairways and water make it challenging for all levels. The course gets a little tight and there are times you need to lay up to minimize danger. Overall, a really nice course.

It seems as though this course was once in pristine shape and was supposed to be an upscale place, it is in terrible shape. The tee boxes are dirt, and the rest of the course isn't much better. Many better courses in the area at comparable if not better prices.

This course is not a walk in the park. Each hole presents a unique set of challenges. It is not a grab the driver and go. The course itself was in ok shape. Some greens were a bit burnt out or sandy. Tee boxes are sparse in areas. Fairways were mostly good.

Branches block path of some tee shots, 2 greens on back 9 areunplayable.

The staff is very friendly and the pace of play was great. I was part of a twosome and the foursome in front let us play through. Great value with with the Golf.Now discount. Course is narrow, common to lose balls. Be careful, lots of homes on the course are easily reachable. Fairways and greens have spots where the grass is not full. No GPS on the cart, so bring your range finder. I played from the senior tees so holes were reachable. Had a great time.

I have played this course on and off with my son. We played past weekend and very nice weather. The course was in good shape. Very nice people and great value. I will keep coming back.

From kids fishing off of a cart bridge in the middle of a fairway to people walking there dogs or just walking themselves it felt like i was playing golf in a public park

From tee box to green count yourself lucky if you find a patch of grass amid all the crab grass and dirt patches everywhere. Quit after 9 hole because I was so fed up with it. The only reason the pace of play was so fast was because the weather was sub-par. Even on the most beautiful of days this course isn't worth it.

I have played this course close to 50 times, but I will never go back again. We played a 4:15 round and were asked to pick up our place right after we had been hit into by the group behind us. The course was in horrible shape with no grass on certain tee boxes, trees were not trimmed either around the cart paths or around the tee areas. There was one hole where we had to drive through three different sets of tree branches because they had not been trimmed and there was no place else to go. The course is not hard, but because they didn't trim any of the tree around the tee boxes, there was only 5-10 yards wide to get your shot through. Not always conducive to a good shot depending on the hole.

I would highly recommend NOT playing there.

The course is in good shape. Pace of play was fantastic. Two greens need considerable work. All in all, this course moves quickly and is a great bargain for the money.

Truly can't beat the value. Course is in really nice shape, new white sand in bunkers, and friendly staff. Will defiantly be back!

Walden is a moderate to hard course. especially from the blue tees. The greens were a little slow but the lay out is outstmnding and you must hit your clubs to score.

Had a blast at this course in Crofton. I would say that it is narrow and a few of the greens could use work. Nice course overall. I dont know when I will be back, way to many hazards for me.
