A very enjoyable course to play!

I've always enjoyed playing Shaker Farms and associate it with good memories! The course conditions were okay, but I know it is challenging to keep up with all the grounds work involved in such a competitive market - especially when they are one of the most reasonably priced courses around this area. The course is well laid out in a beautiful setting with plenty of challenges. If you are willing to put up with a few rough patches on the grounds and don't expect a lot of amenities, you will enjoy a round of golf here.

Course Improving

The course has a good layout and is steadily improving the course conditions over the last few years. Greens in good condition, some fairways need improvement. Many years ago the course was private/semi private and the course was lush. Slowly coming back.

Excellent Choice

Shaker has gone through some tough times, but new ownership and management is bringing this wonderful course back. Great value. Terrific layout, with a very tight back nine. Greens are excellent. You need to play smart positional golf, especially on the back nine. Clubhouse has gotten a makeover and the food is very good. Give it a try, you will not be sorry and you can’t beat the price. I’ve played there several times and have not been disappointed, you won’t either.

Trying hard to make a comeback

Nice old golf course with a good layout that has some fun and challenging holes. Greens are back in in good shape. Main issue at Shaker is the fairways. The front nine unfortunately needs a tremendous amount of time money and effort to repair while the back 9 is coming back and could see that being ok by the end of next spring…So bottom line is if you don’t mind playing less than pristine fairways Shaker farms has nice people there and a good layout and with some great deals on GOLFNOW it’s worth supporting the comeback efforts that are going there .

Terrible and unprofessional staff

We had a tee time for 8:30, showed up to the course at 8, just to be early. The course superintendent come out of the club house and tell me he is closing the course for the day because of the possibility of rain, it drizzled for 20 min and stopped. I told him that made a reservation online and asked how I get a refund, his response was "That's something you are going to have to figure out on your own, you didn't book with us, it's not my problem." We ended up going to a different local course and played 18. I will not be playing here.

Unique Layout

I played on a Hot Deal. Basically the price of a bucket of balls.

Layout is one of a kind and cool. Greens were very good. Fairways and tees were rough, but I knew that going in.

It was a lot of fun. Played in under 3 walking.

If you’re not concerned about aesthetics and like unique layout, definitely recommended!!
