The Preserve at Eisenhower Golf Course

Amazing transition rom the old course to the new "Preserve".

Sand traps rep[laced with nice elevation changes. Fantastic transformation with the undulating greens and "moguls" in the fairways.

Hope is will be able to withstand the abuse from the public!

Course is in very good shape. Fairways and greens play solid and fast. You need to stay on the fairways or it is easy to lose balls in the rough. Not a fan of the hummocks and would rather have sand traps but that is one of the challenges of the course. Overall a very good course especially for AA county residents and seniors with their special rates.

The new course is fantastic. Because it just reopened and the popularity of golf following the pandemic, it’s been played very heavily. They could benefit from more staff and less tee times. The rates are already high for a public course but it would probably do everything they need through premium pricing. Afford more staff, take down some of those tee times effecting the rate of play, and allow the course to recover from heavy play. From the black tee’s the course is very challenging but from the greens it’s much more approachable for a higher handicap player. They would also benefit from a little more creativity in the kitchen and carts. It’s annapolis, people have money. Make the tee times $125 and it’ll solve all of these issues

An excellent renovation effort that was worth the wait

Course has yet to fill in, recover yet opened for play after a long 2yr renovation. Fairways & tee boxes were rather surprisingly a bit dried out. Planted thick sod for the rough still needs be be blended in on several of the holes as it appears to be recently added. Bunkers were removed as part of the redesign.

Greens were immaculate, albeit slow. Many were enlarged adding tiers & undulations. Bathrooms in the clubhouse apparently are only reserved for staff & handicapped. I only learned of this after I was rudely shooed away & told to go to a remote bathroom trailer where I was soon to find unstocked & horrid conditions. Disgusting. And how could this happen only hours into your first day open? With the months & months of build up & excitement I was looking for my expectations to be met. Eager to track developments on future play.

First time playing since the renovation. Unfortunately it rained the night before and the course played very long. The greens were a little slow but they are a terrific change from the prior greens. Extremely large now. Can't wait for the grass to fully grown in. Although we walked they should not have allowed carts in many of the fairways as they were wet. Hopefully they have added more drainage because there were some familiar wet spots. Overall, a great play.

I’m a mid-handicapper (+15) and I used to play Eisenhower, before it closed in October 2018, about 6-8 times a year. It was never a great, and most of the time it wasn’t even a good course. But, it was fairly inexpensive, and it was close.

ALL THAT HAS CHANGED!! I know it’s basically a brand new course, but the layout has changed a bit to make things more challenging, they’ve elevated (and enlarged) a lot of the greens and added these closely mowed areas around them, they got rid of all the bunkers and they added more tee boxes! The greens have been changed to bent grass and they roll soooooo smooth and fast!

To me, all this adds up to a top notch course that could challenge the high handicapper down to the single digit handicapper! I thoroughly enjoyed it, and will be back real soon!

I have played Eisenhower for years. After a 2+ year closure for renovations, it has been nice to play The Preserve at Eisenhower weekly again. The changes made have, I believe, made the course more challenging: 1) even though all bunkers have been removed (there's not one on the course), the addition of hummocks has increased the challenge...you will lose a ball if you find one of these, and they are strategically placed in and near landing zones; 2) they expanded the environmental/wetland areas, which has increased the carries on several holes, and just made the course more beautiful with returning parts of the course to nature; 3) the greens are larger, but more undulating and fast...they are probably at an 11-12 stimp; 4) all fairways have been redone with Bermuda; and 5) #5 is now a par 4 and #6 is a par 3, and they are both challenging with carries of wetland areas and hummocks around the green on #5. The fairways have also been narrowed, so even though it might look like the "old Eisenhower," beware because it's not! They did a great job with the renovations--the course is beautiful and challenging. They don't have the bathrooms or clubhouse built yet, but the county has appropriated dollars for the future to finish this part of the renovation...let's hope it's soon!

Greens are very slow thus somewhat disappointing. Overall, course may need more time to fill in to keep up with the high expectations of course conditions. Bathrooms are an issue. Need attendant(s) to regularly maintain and keep presentable.

I've recently played twice at the newly designed course. The greens and conditions are fantastic and I enjoyed playing there. Two things to keep in mind that I hope will be addressed. First, all the flags on the greens are white making it impossible to know where the pin is on selected holes. It would be helpful to install red, white and yellow/black flags to determined front, middle and back locations. Also due to the course redesign, hole 5 is now a par 4 and 6 is now a par 3. My Garmin device still recognizes the old layout where hole 5 was a par 3 and holw 6 was a par 4. Therefore yardage mesurments on these whole are incorrect. I assume that may be fixed at some point but for now be aware. I will say based on the old course conditions, the resigned Preserve is fantastic. It's fair and a ton of fun to play. I will be back often.

Just re-built so playing like a private club still at this point. Hope it stays the same. Love it. Great job guys!
