Nice Course

Nice course, but it has a lot of low lying areas that were flooded when we played on a 65 degree day. Fairways were soggy as well which hurt our scores some. The greens were fast and a few were quite challenging. Overall, good course for the later months (June afterwards).

Hot deal

I would have been disappointed if I paid more than the price of the hot deal. They must be trying to cut corners because the fairways were cut narrow and if you are an average golfer you had a hard time making the short grass on the tee off. The greens were good but the sand traps had grass growing in them. If your ball did not stay in the narrow cut fairways it was difficult to find your ball with the high clover

very nice course

First off I got this for a hot deal ($10) and for this price I was worried the course would be terrible. I can say I was pleasantly surprised to find the course was in great shape, was laid out nice, well taken care of and gave me a challenge. One last thing to add is this; I have never been to a course that had ball washers that did not smell like sewer water, instead they used bleach I believe to keep it clean and it was fantastic to see this attention to the customer.

Great course for the price. Long but forgiving.

Great course for the price. A little longer than the average courses we play but wider fairways on several holes allow for some less than perfect shots. 2 or 3 of the par fours are narrower & require good teeshot placement to stay away from trouble. Good course for the average player!

Perfect Day......but

The course was beautiful and well maintained, the weather was perfect and the manager was very helpful and friendly. The only thing that irked me was the man on the Segway. He rode around us while we played a hole. If he wanted to tell us to speed up or let others play thru he should have waited between the green and the next tee box. He upset my nephew so much he was in tears and didn't want to play anymore. I was able to convince him to continue but I felt rushed for the rest of the course. In fact, I skipped 2 holes just to speed up the play. And for the record we started late because the twosome schedule to tee off before us showed up late and waited for them.

nice course

I enjoyed this course, it's a little out of the way but I was impressed with the condition of the course, I didn't see one ball mark on the greens, the back nine was a little more interesting. I will go back to play again.

This course is a farm track.

If you can get it for $16 on Golfnow, it's worth it. Otherwise, it's pretty rough. The fairways are just rough cut shorter and the greens are shaggy.

Briar Ridge has improved

I've played here several times over the past five years. This year they have really improved the condition of the course.
The greens are in much better condition than ever before (greens are a bit slow)
The tee boxes are way better groomed.
Bunkers are maintained, but they really need to put new sand in them, they have to much small stones.
I would recomend this course.

Nothing Fancy Here

No a bad place. Nothing fancy here, just a simple course with large trees and occasional ponds with either straight out fairways or dog-legs.

Best shape I've seen the course in

I played here a lot growing up and this was my first trip in about 6 years and I am happy to say the course is in great shape. The staff is making a great effort to improve the course. They've added quite a bit of heather on the back 9 that has really improved the aesthetics. It's definitely worth the price to check out what they are doing with the golf course.

Very plush fairways. Nice sized greens.

Had a great time here on 6/14. The course is very well maintained and if you play from the whites it is a little over 6200 yds. Had a cart girl come and offer us drinks several times over the 18 holes. This course is a great value and would recommend it to anyone.
