Great course for all levels of play.

Only drawback was we we're aware that the greens had been aerified. Might have made a big factor in our decision to play. Other than that, we had a wonderful time, thank you.

First day of Aeration

When we arrived we were informed that they had decided at the last moment to aerate the front nine holes. This meant that we would have to play the back nine holes twice. They did reduce our greens fees and pace of play was very good as you can imagine and the back nine are quite enjoyable. Greens did seem to have some issues on some holes with either a turf disease or green grass having died.

AERATION YIKES!

There was no mention of aeration in their listing. Upon my arrival was was advised the front nine was closed but I could play the back nine twice. I received a discount of 7bucks. I didnt balk, but that was a crock. The back nine was in pretty good shape. I'm sure they will be aerating the back nine any day so avoid this course for the next few weeks or request a severe discount . You can play 18 for their price at many other courses on Golfnow...I will try it again in a month...

a good value

Walden is a well designed course with several interesting holes. Staff are helpful, but it always seems a bit disorganized there in terms of tee times, sending out singles to wait behind foursomes, etc. The course is in decent shape; the greens were good. In general, a nice place to play a reasonably priced round of golf.

spring time - course is still getting in shape

All 18 greens were in very good shape, rolled true. Fairways are spotty, particularly those in the woods. The course has a couple of challenging holes, particular a couple of par - 3s. Most holes are modest in length

Two different styles

We were pleasantly surprised with the good condition of the course after a rough winter. The staff was out in force fixing a number winter related issues. A couple of the greens had some rough areas but overall good experience. We'll be back.

Improving Course

I have played this course over the years. It is now being run by Homeowners who are investing alot of time and money in club and it shows. Bunkers are being repaired, tees are being sided, clubhouse was totally renovated, new carts. They hired a PGA Professional to run club. They also have complete pro shop which I have not seen for years. I had lunch and it was great. I will come back. Finally someone cares and is fixing this course.

Course was in Rough Shape!

I had been excited about getting to play this course....but when I got there, I have to say it was a little disappointing. The staff was very nice....and the course wasn't crowded (it was a Tues), so we went out as a twosome. The pace was OK....and a slower foursome let us play through which kept the pace very good.

The course condition was not very good. Admittedly, it has been raining/snowing for quite a while, but the course was awful damp and totally unkempt. They were trying to fill in some of the sand traps -- but most were little lakes. It was also hard to find yardage markers. Over all - poorly kept.

Perhaps I will play here again when the weather is nicer, and perhaps the course has recovered from a rough winter, but I won't go out of my way to do so. I did like the nets they had set up for practice/warming up for driving. Putting green nice as well.

Decent Course

It's a little short but if you miss the fairway by too much you can get in trouble easy. Liked the back nine better than the front.

No driving range to warm up in so I didn't like that but the staff was nice and they offered to let us go out early if we wanted so that was nice.

Furlough Golf

So payed $32 for 18 including cart. Now got to the course to find this also included 2 drinks in the bar which was a nice perk. A couple of tee box's need a little attention and a few of the greens had some minor issues. Overall the greens rolled very well. You don't have to be a big bomber to do well, in matter of fact accuracy is much more important on this sometimes tight layout. There are a couple of forced carries from the mens tee of 140 yards, so if you can't fly the ball from the mens tee's 140 yards, then this may not be the course for you. Overall I was pleased with the course and would play it again at this price.

Hello all this is a nice course that will help you work on your long and short game. Some of the fairway can be a little flattened/hard. Over all a good experience.

nice layout and fair for good shot placement and ball striking.

The greens were nice, rolled nice and true. They are on the slower side compared to some other courses in the area, but once you get the speed right, you can score.

Course management a must, easy to get into trouble

Walden golf club is a great for the money course , the greens were in great shape which made up for the fairways that could use some attention. I enjoy playing this course because you have to use your head , it's easy to get yourself into trouble with poor shot selection. If you're a bomber bring plenty of balls you'll need them !

terrible shape

I have played this course regularly for the past 10 years, right now its in the worst condition I have ever seen. tee boxes have no grass just sand and dirt, greens are so slow and in terrible shape. Overall it has really been let go, I hope they can get it back into playable shape.

Aeration Definitely Hindered Play

For the lunch special, I thought I was getting a bargain but with only the back 9 open and aeration being recently completed, the round became a practice round.

The course has such potential, and I would be interested in playing the course after aeration is complete.

Possibly Worst Conditions I Have Ever Played

The current condition of this golf course is deplorable. There really is no excuse, as this year's weather for growing has really been good/great. The fairway conditions were poor. The tee boxes did not have a single blade of grass. The greens should not be able to be called greens. The course might as well have advertised sand hazards in the middle of the greens. This golf course is months away from turning into a housing development. I will not be back to this course, and I will steer others away from wasting their money.
