Value for money nice course

We played on a cloudy day and the grounds wes wet from the rains. The greens were slow. The course was in a good shape. We liked the course very much. It’s challenging, the pace of play was fast, the staff is very friendly. We will definitely play again.

Good Value

Bowie is a fun course. The staff is working hard to make your round an enjoyable experience. Greens are slow. Otherwise it's in pretty good shape. A great value for the money!

Mature course with good rates

This is a good course for those not expecting anything fancy, just old-fashioned golf on a mature course. The price is always right, and the layout is challenging but not overly difficult. I’m a 16 handicap and generally score in the mid-8s from the whites here. Holes 10 and 12 are shoehorned in, but other than those I think they layout is fine.
