Very nice course

My wife and I booked Demes Acres for a crazy low price of $10 on golfnow.com. We were looking for a nice course to play that we were hoping was in decent shape. When we arrived, we met the owner who signed us in. She was so friendly and we talked about the course . We teed off with only a single golfer in front of us. The course only played to just over 5700 yards, but it didnt play short. The course was apparently bought recently by a couple, and they are doing a great job maintaining the course. The fairways are in very good shape, and the greens like velvet. A few of the greens on the back side were recently plugged, but the owner had advised us. The course was fun to play also. There are some very long par 3s, and some dog legged par 4s and 5s. We will play Deme Acres again soon.

New owners should be proud.

This course was always a good value, but corse conditions have improved and I see it as a great value. It's short but fun to play, plush slower greens.

Check them out...

Good no fuss friendly atmosphere. Played behind an outing and still averaged 2 hours per side.

Anytime you can play a 4 hour round of golf behind an outing it's a good day!

Great short course in excellent condition.

We have been golfing in nearby Toledo and maybe we just haven't seen the good ones yet, but this place was very well groomed. All the golfers in my foursome remarked what great shape the course was in. A little short and not super challenging but still a great value.

Decent shape

Couse was in fairly decent shape, however not a high end course. Greens were challenging as many were not flat.

Fore!!

The new owners are working very hard to clean up course, both appearance wise & play wise. I've played this course for over 20 years and it still challenges me!

Has potential with some TLC.

The staff was very delightful and it was mentioned that the course was recently under new ownership. However, I felt that the course was in very poor condition because of probably years of poor maintenance.
Tee boxes were in good condition, as were the greens, but the fairways, sand traps, and rough were in very poor condition. On the back 9, many of the fairways and roughs were infested with weeds and had large areas of ground under repair, including many areas of bare dirt. The smaller sand traps were no longer maintained and had become grass traps. the rough was experiencing the same problems as the fairways.
Now the greens were in excellent condition. They were very well maintained and challenging with lots of slop. The ground was also very soft, so wedge shot had opportunity to fly like they should.
Overall course layout is very flat with very little challenge. There were not many dog legs and when there were they were slight. yardages were off on at least one whole. I was on the 471 yard par 5 in two shots. If yardage was correct my drive was 321 years, so not likely. I usually drive 225-250. My second shot from the 150 marker landed on the back of the green with may 150 year club.
I feel this course has lots of potential, aside from being a very flat course. If there fix the bunkers and repair the fairways this would be a very nice course for beginners. The fairways are wide, wide visibility on the course, and greens are large. It also has some opportunity to create more challenge. Majority of the holes have a dry ditch running through the fairway that likely used to be water. If they are repaired and water was flowing it could create some challenge for the skilled golfer.

Friday adventure to a course I hadn't played.

Went to Deme Acres for the 1st time. Course was a little rough. Could see damage from all our crazy weather. But the people were very friendly and the hot dogs were good. They have a lot of big pines that swallowed my ball a few times.

Nice small town course

Good straight forward course, maintained well. However, seems like they have flooding problems or something as many fairways have marked off areas which appear to have been underwater. Brand new carts and a nice small selection of food and pro shop.
