The Timbers at Troy

Greens were slow & hairy, with ball marks all over on several of them. Bunkers were not manicured at all with a sand pro tractor, and the rains didn’t come until after 4:00pm.

Not worth $60 for a late afternoon rate!

We got poured on the first few holes. Course held up very well and didn't get swampy. Once the rain broke after a few holes, it was a very pleasant round. Temps cooled off and other groups had cleared out. Very well maintained fairways and greens. Cart girl came around a few times despite the weather which was nice. Little pricier course than some but worth it.

The rain poured for the first few holes then cleared up and made for a very enjoyable afternoon of golf with nobody behind or in front for the round. The course was in great condition despite the thunderstorm we played through. Fairways and greens were green and plush. Obviously, quite wet on the greens due to rain but it dried out after the rain passed and sped up the puts as you'd expect. Excellent course, enjoy when I'm able to play here.

I played Timbers on Thursday (7/7/22) and had over a 5 hour round of golf. The group in front of us on the back 9 was playing a fivesome with 3 golf carts. They were all clearly beginners and 2 of them were sharing clubs out of the same bag. They took forever on each hole and did not offer for us to play through so I called the clubhouse. The clubhouse sent out 2 people that said they would talk to the group in front and fix the issue.

The very next hole, we were waiting on the tee box again, but this time 2 groups behind us pulled up to the tee box while we remained waiting. So now you have a 3 group back-up on a single hole due to this course allowing a fivesome to play together.

I spoke with an employee in the clubhouse after and expressed my disappointment that they allow fivesomes on the course, and that they did not solve the issue when it was brought to their attention.

My previous round at Timbers 2 weeks prior had a cart die on the 14th hole, which ended up costing us a half hour.

Based on these most recent experiences, I would not recommend anyone to play at Timbers. Although the course is nice, it is way too pricey for my foursome to put up with this type of management in the future. We plan on taking our weekly outing to 1 of the many other courses in the area.

Course was nice if you like carry, it had very steep hills so sometime you were hitting blindly to the green, there is a lot of thick brush. I’m my opinion it was not worth the price.

Timbers of Troy is a very nice public course to play. Right now it is in excellent conditions. All the grass is at the right height. There are minimal weeds. The holes are fun and not terribly tight. Starters are super friendly. No complaints

I play Timbers at least once or twice a month. The staff is always pleasant, and the pace of play is always on point. I recently played an evening round with a tee time of 5:57pm. I figured I would be going out as a single for some quiet play but was met with another three gents.

We had an outstanding round of golf and bonding and even captured some numbers for meeting again.

This is a great course for anyone looking to enjoy the game and facilities offered. I highly recommend this course!

This was a delightful day. From the Director of Golf to the pro shop staff to the starter, everyone was friendly and helpful. Of course, it helped that I chipped in for birdie in front of the 12 year old grandson on the par 5 second hole.

Fairways, greens and tee boxes were very nicely maintained. Will definitely be back.

Played here on a Wednesday early afternoon hoping to avoid the crowds and usual pace of play slowdowns but it was still slow by the end of 2nd hole and straight through until about the 15th. It was a beautiful day though so very enjoyable. Tees, fairways and greens all in decent shape. Driving range is in good condition and they seem to have new range balls so that's a huge plus. Surprisingly, there was not a single ball washer throughout the course (and the carts don't include one either). The course layout is good, though and if you are located in Howard County, then the central location is fantastic.

Slow pace of play… tee times are too close together. Fun course and well maintained.

I knew glowing into the round it would be slow so I decided to walk as it was cart path only. Even though the course was soggy, it still played great. Enjoyed the day aside from the twosome with whom we were paired. They each shot a very slow 120. SMH

I came here 4 weeks ago or so and the greens were being aerated. Now the greens are very nice. The other aspects of the course are well kept and nice a green. The starter was very nice and accomodating. We had such a great experience here.
