Walden Golf Club

The course is in fair condition during the winter months. Greens were good, ball roles smooth.
The course lets u hit all your clubs from the back tees, which I always play from. One thing they need to improve is the back tee boxes which need to improve on. Other than that, I like the course!!

Course was certainly not in top condition as to be expected coming out of a tough winter. I believe the course is owned by the HOA and they continue working on trying to salvage it. My recommendation is that homeowners should recognize that even though it is there course, they must pick up after their dogs and refrain from strolling across fairways oblivious to incoming golf balls.

Had to inquire in clubhouse why all the new sand in the bunkers, new mgmnt, great improvement. Goose issues on some greens , pin placement helped with that. Stay below the hole if possible, large undulating , smooth, some frozen, greens, links style play, nicely mowed for Jan. Ball still rolled well. Money well spent. Cart paths concrete,close to greens and good for seniors.

My group has played this course about 14 times this year, and with a 54* day in December and a great Hot Deal price another trip was well worth it. The 19th hole is always on the menu to enjoy whatever game might be on as well as great food and beverages.
As for the course here's the skinny.... It's.not super long even from the tips but you most certainly will not have your way, so bring you golf game and thinking hat , a great risk/ reward as the layout gives you options with the most important one being a good shot is necessary. Good course for all skill levels. A frost delay was our only issue.... Can't beat Mother Nature, as naturally this put more golfers on course, but we still managed to finish before dark.We brought along a few guests to our normal group of 12 and they were also happy to have played here too.

Rarely play this course due to it being very tight and a lot of long forced carries. If you don't strike the ball well you'll lose a lot of balls. Hats off to new management, course is in best shape I've ever seen it.

Front nine hit driver 1 time, back nine 7 times. Course conditions better than other courses in this area. Played in less than 3 hours.

We played on verterans day for $29 which was a great deal. Course was in great shape tree s rolled really nice. Staff was great. Very narrow course you must hit the ball straight

I enjoy playing this course. It is long in some places and short in others. It allows you to work on your driver and irons. The water holds are great and the course is in great shape.

The course had a very nice layout. It's a very tight course but has a nice design to it.
My dislike are, the course is very poorly marked. Was hard to just distances to hazards and yardage to the green.

The course was in a decent shape, with the fairways being ok. The rough and other side had bald spots. Some of the greens were chewed up, and was in a varying degrees of speed. The fairway had no sand base, so if you are on a tight lie, you will hit mud. There was no one controlling the pace of play, and there were some 4-somes that were blocking some holes. Passing through 7-8-9 holes were slow. When checking in, the cashier tried to over-charge me. The young lady did not know the proper fees to charge for the Golfnow customer

Fairways were filled with uncut crab grass. Greens were in exceptionally poor shape especially hole 15. Tee time was 11:32AM and we were a threesome and didn't finish till 4:30PM due to average wait time at tee box of 10 minutes every hole. Never saw a ranger or a cart girl the whole time. I realize it's fall and the leaves are an issue but on the vast majority of holes leaves were a serious issue on the already poor greens. They could really improve things by simply raking the leaves off the green every morning.

I have played Walden several time before in fact our business use to run it's annual golf tournmaent there. The Fairways are excellent but the rough / Frindge is way to tall and fluffy. not in the fairway easlily loss ball. Lots of woods and homes plays more like a Links course very little to no forgiveness for the novice or average golfer. The greens were in Average shape but no two played or rolled the same and lots of divots not repaired even though the provide fairway repair and all golfers should repair green marks. All in all a great day would have liked the course more if it was a little better kept.

Played by myself in the early AM. Fairways and greens were good. Very tight on most holes with a lot of environmental hazards. A lot of layup holes because of the environmental hazards. The price was very reasonable.

Had a great time, great conditions. Will definitely come again.

I was just visiting in the area, and decided to play a round. The course grounds is huge! I don't think you could walk the course, if you wanted to. I did not use the food or beverage services.

This was my first time at this course, and I thought the course layout and design is great. It includes including hidden dog legs, hills, and water hazards. Some greens are pretty close to residential houses, which, as a novice golfer, made me nervous on some my approaches. My only two complaints, are: A) some of the holes are not easily marked, so going from one hole to the next isn't always obvious. B) the course condition was great, but on some holes, even though the rough is cut to only about 3-4 inches high, the grass is so "bushy" or "fluffy", unless your ball lands on the fairway, you probably won't find it.

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!!!!
