Exceptional conditions for price

Links style play, but incredible course condition and easy layout. White tees are generous and not too challenging. Greens in very good condition, but very sharp. Great golf course and would highly recommend.

Nice links-style course

This course was in great shape for spring golf, both as to the fairways and the greens. The greens are undulating or slanted, so their speed is a bit slower than average, but they putt true. There are few trees except at the course boundaries, so wind and some amount of undulating terrain are the main defenses for the course right now. In past years they allowed heather to grow as an additional defense. Right now, it's too early to tell if they will continue to do so this year. It slows play. Car paths need some renovation. The carts are a bit old, too. The clubhouse is a large open space with few amenities, and is oddly placed a long distance from the parking lot. Decent practice facilities. Overall, it is good value for the money, especially if you like links-style golf and don't plan on spending time in the clubhouse.

First Time Playing

Blackheath

First time playing here. Staff couldn’t be more friendly, great couple of guys we ran into. Hooked us up with another 2-some, and I think one of them was going for his Tour card because he was very slow. Pace of play wasn’t an issue, “we” were the issue. Course condition was “ok” for April, not worth the $33 price tag. We stopped after 9, wasn’t interested in playing the back. I’d recommend to a friend, but not at that price.

Review

Course was in as good of shape as you could ask for considering the amount of rain and cold lately, course was dryer then expected and greens were in better shape then expected. Have heard good things about new course owners.

Nice track

Have played here several times, and have a better understanding of the course. Where and when to be aggressive comes with time. It’s in pretty good shape other than the greens were recently aerated. Would recommend this course.

Best maintenance in the area

Great layout. Some of the most unique and tricky greens. Even after rain, this course manages to stay dry and in perfect condition. Always seems like its too cheap for the amazing views and conditions.

Good course

I’ve played here many times, and usually the pace of play is very slow….today was different! We were able to complete our round in 4 1/2 hrs, which isn’t horrible. The greens were in great shape and considering the volume of rain we’ve had recently, the course was in really good condition. Maybe they’ve finally figured out how to space out the tee times and not overbook?!

Pace of play

The golf course is in great shape, but the pace of play was pretty bad and nothing was done to speed the slow players up

A slow play, but a fun course nonetheless. The course conditions are beautiful.

Good price, but a 6 hour round

Middle of the day on Labor Day had us waiting 15-20 mins on the front 9 for each hole. Pace of play was awful for a course like this. Back 9 played much quicker but that was 3 hours after we started the front. Will be tough for me to come back.
