Willow Springs course was in the worst shape I've ever seen it. Greens were unputtable, sand traps were fully grown out and not maintained, fallen trees were on the course, etc. Not worth playing this course at this price for such poor quality.

The tee boxes were not mowed low enough. The fairways also had rather tall grass for fairways.

Tee box are trash

The tee box grass was taller than my tee when I went. I lost multiple balls in the middle of their overgrown fairway. If they kept the grass cut it would be a major improvement

Disappointed

I've played this course many times in the past, however not since last year. I was surprised how bad the conditions were playing for the first time this year (2024). The T-boxes were beat up, the Greens had many bare dirt spots, and the bunkers were full of weeds in hard dirt (no sand). The snack bar was limited in choice and disappointing as well. Overall, I'll be looking for another go-to spot with my buddy as the course has basically went to the dogs. I'm not sure what happened, however there appears to be a severe shortage on maintenance and funding in 2024.

Course in atrocious condition

I haven’t played at Willow Springs since early 2023 but when I played on 6/7/24 I was astounded at how the owner has allowed the course to deteriorate. The greens are in the worst condition I have ever seen them. On multiple greens there were weeds and even unmowed clover growing. Most disturbing, however, was the total lack of maintenance of the bunkers. The bunkers are completely unplayable because they are covered in 2 to 3 foot weeds. Simply unbelievable!

Willow Springs conditions.

The fairways were deep.so deep that I lost 3 goofballs that were hit in the middle of the fairways.

The rough was also deep. Definitely want to keep it in the fairway. The rough was narrow on both sides, bordered with grass that was about 18 inches deep.

The greens, not all, but a significant number of them, had dead grass on parts of the green.

At $25 for 9 holes, I would have thought the course would have been better cared for.

Rough!

Although it has been a while since I played Willow Springs, the course was in rough shape (I do not recall it being this bad). The edges of the fairways were like a hayfield (many lost balls), the sand traps were full of 12-18” weeds, and the greens were rough.

Unfortunately I cannot recommend playing this course.

Not up to par

Every green was unkempt, weeds and bumpy surface. Down tree on fairway, and rough was way to high.

Quality Has Slipped

There were many parts of the course that had not been cut in at least a week, even though we’ve had enough dry days to get the course better manicured. Greens have a lot of bare spots throughout. The driving range was closed so it could be cut, even though it was like 4:30 in the afternoon, and had not been cut in awhile. The practice green is like most of the greens on the course, rough in spots.
