Good Course for the Price

Our 1140 tee time seemed to be in between their morning and afternoon leagues which was perfect. Course was as in good conditions, greens were a bit patchy. Fairways were very wide, greens were readable. Will definitely be back to play this course!

Not a difficult course

This course is enjoyable for the average golfer. It’s not challenging with multiple bunkers or water hazards. A great courses for beginners too.

Too much poop

Price is fair, course layout is fun, the abundance of goose poop is just over the top. Literally only 2 course open the December day I played and was pleased to get a tee time and play. I’d play again on a bonus December warm spell because not playing would be worse but the goose poop is just mind blowing. Regular golf season this would be a deterrent for me to return. I would choose somewhere else.

Pace of play is an issue with very unfriendly golfers

Took 5 hours to play we had multiple golfers yell at us for being slow even though there were golfers ahead of us and ahead of them

Sylvan clearly overbooks as backed up by similar Google reviews on same topic on pace of play

Won’t be back
