Fun Short course

Sharpen your iron game here at the Maples. Don't be fooled by the short hole layout, it's a good challenge. I still haven't broken par lol

Pictures are deceiving

Chose this course for my wife and myself on Mother’s Day, have not played there before and pictures on the golf now app looked promising. My wife is new to golfing so I thought a 9 hole course would be perfect, got to the course and the fairways were lined with houses, people were just showing up left and right in front and behind us out of the neighborhood starting on whatever hole they wanted to, also had a slower golfer ahead of us playing 2 to 3 balls per hole, greens were mainly sand and covered in goose poop, would not recommend anyone play here unless you’re trying to workout a slice in your iron game

Quick, simple, anything but flashy

This course is anything but flashy. Nothing near perfect but it’s a fun and quick, mainly par 3, course that has some challenges with it. I’d come back again for a quick 9 since I live around the corner but I would not travel more than 15 minutes to come to the course

Exceptional

Course was amazing, staff was even more amazing, Marvin at the check-in counter at the pro shop was very superb. I met a gentleman named Rick he was one of the course owners and he was an absolute gem

Ok, but won’t be rushing back

Course is in rough shape, lots of bare spots. Could be a great little par 3 (almost) course. There is a lot of money going into the pro shop and restaurant up front and seems like nothing is going into the course itself. Not worth the $20 in the current state of the course.

Coming along nicely

Course is under new ownership or management it appears. Clubhouse is being renovated and there is an actual pro-shop now. Not much to it yet, but it looks like effort is being put in to make it nice. Played here a bunch over the past couple years, greens were always very bad, but much improved and getting better. Tee boxes were all dirt, now getting better. Giving a higher rating expecting these changes to take shape by next year. Perfect short neighborhood course for a casual quick 9 in theory. Excited to see it come to fruition.

Canceled my Reservation without informing me

Had a confirmed reservation for 9 holes later in the day, course canceled and did not notify me. Would not recommend booking them through the golf now app or in general

Poorly kept, very small

It’s all 3s and 4s but they are still almost all the same distance. Couldn’t get a tee in the ground on any hole and the greens were as hard as pavement too. Too tight of fairways for a new golfer(houses everywhere) and too poor quality for a good golfer.

Great outing with my young golfer!

My son and I had a great time playing together. We had no delays and I had plenty of time to talk about our round and teach the game to my son.

Rough

Extremely short course with torn up tee boxes- torn up meaning mostly dirt, scarce grass. Had to start much later since they don’t have enough carts and the couple in front of us hit as many balls off the tee box as they could with us patiently watching since there wasn’t a ranger to keep the pace. There was even a group waiting with us behind us since they were so slow. The gentleman in front of us, behind the slow couple ended up leaving because he got so frustrated. This course is MAYBE worth $10 a player with a cart, but honestly you’re just better off saving your time and money and skipping it completely. The sole employee was nice and truly doing his best, but if you’re not equipped for x amount of players, don’t allow that many tee times.

Don’t listen to the negative reviews

This course is under new management, and the current owner is an extremely friendly and courteous person. There was a little hold up with getting carts ready and the owner was super friendly and continued to check in on our group to make sure we weren’t stressed about the situation. We all still got on the course and had a great game. A lot of the other reviews mention the course was not well maintained. I have a feeling they were expecting a 5 star country club experience from a small neighborhood style course. If that’s the case this course isn’t for you. The greens and fairways were honestly very manageable and better than expected. Houses are very tight to the course so as long as your a decent shot you’ll be fine. Still had a very enjoyable experience and waiting a little longer to t-off initially worked well with our quad, we weren’t stuck waiting and we’re able to play at our own pace. Overall truly a hidden gem. Don’t listen to these other negative reviews, this was a nice little 9 hole course. Totally would recommend playing here.
