Our Favorite Course!

This is my families favorite course to play! The fairways are maintained and bright green, the greens are manicured and very fast. The only trees are on the exterior perimeter of the course so your slice won’t be a problem at Blackheath. The prices are also lower than most of the decent courses in the area. Give it a try!

Disappointing Twilight Tee Time Experience

My recent experience at Blackheath during a twilight tee time was highly unsatisfactory. The lack of organization and disregard for proper course etiquette made it an extremely frustrating outing.

One of the major issues we encountered was the constant problem of people skipping over holes. It seemed as though there was little to no monitoring or enforcement of the order of play. This resulted in significant delays and an unfair waiting game for those who followed the rules. At one point, we found ourselves waiting on four different groups ahead of us, causing an unnecessarily lengthy round.

Moreover, the apparent absence of any course marshals or staff members to regulate the flow of play further exacerbated the problem. Without proper supervision, the golf course became a chaotic free-for-all, with players taking liberties and causing significant delays for others.

A round of golf should be an enjoyable experience, but unfortunately, Blackheath failed to meet even the most basic expectations. The disregard for maintaining a fair and orderly pace of play severely impacted our overall satisfaction. It’s disappointing to witness such poor management and a lack of consideration for golfers’ time and experience.

Given our disappointing twilight tee time at Blackheath Golf Club, I cannot recommend this establishment to fellow golfers seeking a well-organized and enjoyable golfing experience.

Just knot for me.

If you want golf that’s all you will get here. No food, you get lightbulb hot hot dogs. No onions. Ketchup mustard only. No drinks for adults.

Course in good condition, slow pace

Course was in good shape. The greens were rolling good and tricky as ever. Some reason pace of play really slows up at the 11th hole and continues until 18

Dry Course

No one told ya it’s a dry course. Took some employees there and found out once paid it was an alcohol free course. Would have been nice to know prior to booking.

Good for under $25

No liquor license, extremely overpriced food and beverage. Clubhouse conditions are poor. Course was in good shape but it's wide open.

Never again

Will never play here again, no alcohol, over priced, and over booked, 5-6 hour round, 3-4 groups on every hole, would have rather been at work, group behind us hit into us at direction of Ranger, don’t waste your time or money at this dump, you’ll only regret it, whoever owns and manages this course should work at the circus because that’s what I felt like I was at

Nate

6 hour pace of play. We were on time and there were 4 carts stacked on the box. No alcohol sold on course or allowed in. Will not return until big changes occur.

Enjoyable Forgiving Course for Medium to High Handicappers

Well-kept and sufficiently challenging for an enjoyable afternoon. Have played many times and will do so again. Like the new golf carts added this season. Walkable but carts are faster.

Slow

This has been one of my favorite courses, but it was Wednesday, and way overbooked. Something has changed because this never happened before.
