The Timbers at Troy

First time playing this course. they need to put dome work on the fairways and tee boxes. will play it again only on a hot deal.

Fairways in really bad shape with burned grass, water damage, and dry areas. Greens not much better. Lot's of spike marks and dry areas. Also looks like the golfers aren't respecting the course either with a large number of unrepaired divots. Not even worth the discounted $33 greens fee.

this course was not in great shape when i played. the fairways looked like the gopher from caddy shack came through it. the greens were bumpy and had divots all over it. the sand traps were not light and fluffy, but more of a hard dirt (granted it rained the night before). i would not play this course for the full price of what it normally charges, but it was fine for a discounted tee time.

Great course, some narrow fairways that widen out near the greens. Well maintained will definitely head back for another round !

This course is absolutely worth it in the $40 -$50 price range but when they charge more than that isn't worth while. The course has some decent character and plenty of areas where you can go O.B. It isn't an extremely long course but that doesn't mean it is easy unless you are a very accurate golfer.

The staff are all friendly. I am under the impression that the management must not care too much about the course because they wouldn't leave so unfixed many ball marks all over the greens if so. With a little better conditioning this could be an awesome course, but as of now it is only an okay course.

I have played this course several times and enjoyed it again this weekend. The course is always in good shape, challenging but fair, with enough trouble to keep you thinking.

Only problem was lack of carts. We had a 4:12 tee time and they had only one cart. First time my start was ever delayed because of no carts available. We eventually got our round started but needed some help getting up big hills because our electric cart was running out of juice.

Overall great time with great friends.

Nice greens and collars! Fairways were alitte uneven in growth with bare spots.

I played this course a year ago and the bunkers are in the same poor condition. Why that hasn't been addressed is beyond me. Pace of play is an issue as well. I saw Marshalls regularly yet many times there would be three groups on a hole.

Enjoyed playing the course, some challenges. Would definitely recommend.

Had a great time golfing at Timbers! Greens & fairways were beautiful & would play there again for sure!

Played from the white tees which is 5616 yards but is rated 130 at that distance. There are many environmental areas and some areas that require very accurate shots. The greens were slow and the course was very wet and did not seem to dry out very much even by noon. I don't know whether it was wet from rain or sprinklers but there were many mushy areas.

very friendly staff. challenging enough from the tee, but overall length allowed for options that didn't always require hitting driver. greens were very receptive and although evidence of recent aerification, putts rolled nicely.

Fairly tight holes but room for bailout. Rewards keeping it in the fairway as the rough can get long in spots. Elevation changes and blind tee shots are challenging for the first time playing the course. Not a long course with the tips playing at just over 6600 yards.

Spent the day with my girlfriend on the course. Good day, both weather and the course.

I play Timbers a lot. It is one of my favorite courses in the area. The layout is interesting- different mix of holes that winds around through the woods. it requires a good tee shot as a number of the fairways are fairly narrow with trouble on one side or the other. As for course conditions, some of the tee boxes could use some loving-14 for example was in rough shape. The only other issue right now, which I expect to change once the weather improves, are the bunkers. Not much sand in many of them and lots of pebbles and rocks- definitely need to check for rocks before hitting out of the bunkers. Had a great out on 10 but almost nailed one of my group who was standing on the other side of the green with a rock that flew out along with the sand. Despite that, I would recommend.

Got a golf now deal which was a nice little discount over the 55-60 they want for a regular weekday. The course is decent overall, with groomed fairways and not-too-deep roughs. However, some of the sand was rocky and hard, and the greens were recently aerated, which was a disappointment.

I would give this course a 3 rating given the full retail price. For the discounted price I paid, I give it a 4.

Fun layout. Unfortunately both times I have played here the greens were recently stamped.

Many of the bunkers are atrocious with huge rocks. Some are pristine. It's really odd.

The range is nice, as is the putting green. The chipping green area is a bit small and awkwardly placed, though.

Pro shop staff and starter were friendly and accommodating.

Course had been aerated on 4/1/13, but was still quite playable. The fairways were really coming in well, for the time of year. As a whole, the course really was in pretty good shape.

This course has a nice layout, but it is VERY short from the whites. If you usually play the whites, you should play the blues or blacks here. I drove two consecutive greens on the front... The par 5 ninth hole is kind of a messed up layout - if you are straight or left off the tee you have no second shot. Not a big fan of par 5s that penalize tee shots in two directions.

Anyway, good course in every regard, but the full rate might still be a little high. (But maybe that's because I still haven't adjusted to the DMV greens fees compared to my native Detroit.)

This is one of Maryland's best kept secret, this was my first time playing here and let me tell you it was cool and windy but I didn’t mind one bit! The course was in pretty good shape considering the elements and how early in the season it is but the fairways and greens were in great shape (greens were quick and ran true). I'm not one for spending a lot of cash on course early the season and you really can't beat the deal through golfnow.com, it’s a challenging course which make it fun for the real golf enthusiast. Can't wait for the good weather, I'll be back!

Considering the time of year, (February), this course was in surprisingly good condition -- greens were a little bumpy, but, they were one of the few courses in the area open for play -- they even allowed carts off the path. My buddy & I played in 3 hours 20 minutes -- what's not to like?
