Too expensive
Course conditions were poor. Fairways were a mess, bunkers were un-raked and tee boxes needed cutting. I liked the layout but it is a $25 course tops, not $38.
Shot making required!
The layout was a joy to play with it having dog-legs, well placed water and bunkers, and forced carriers. Small amount of elvation changes from tee to green. Played as a single and people let me play through until I got to the final 4 holes ( 3 hour round).
The course conditoins were a bit rough with the fairways having some bare, crab grass areas. Greens rolled nicely. Would play again!
Excellent course
Challenging but yet not to tough for even first timer. Highly recommend at least trying this course once if you haven't already.
Nice layout
Played course often green and fairways a little ruff I'm not sure if because of rain lately I will play when plush it is awesome
Bad Shape
Greens were the slowest I ever played on , lot's of hot spots all over the course . Pin Placement was like Sunday at the Masters, Don't they realize it's weekend warriors out there
Great time
Good course bring bug spray, pace of play was good until we made the turn starter needs to pair up small groups
GOLF Now only costed me additional money
The rate was the same when I arrived as Golf Now. Basically paid $5 extra bucks to Golf now, then paid same price at the courase that I would have if I didn't book through golf now. Next time I'll be more observent.
Great scenery
Took advantage of a $25 offer to try one of the areas metro park courses. Very beautiful & serene golf course for a municipal course. The biggest and only issue was that the drainage is horrible! Would not recommend playing this course until after several days of a rainfall. Several fairways had very bad ponds in low spots and with nearly every fairway soaked no roll on any shots. Most bunkers were temporary water hazards. Greens were very soft and slow, but were easy to adjust to.
WOW! Willow Metropark Golf Course It's a Great Place.
I book a round of golf for myself and my son-in-laws dad. He hadn't been golfing in over a year or more. First the staff were excellent help, they were organized by explaining how many groups were in front. Willow has a waiting area for the first hole and the rangers are nice as well. The greens at Willow are wide and while the course is challenging if you play within youself you can have a great time. What I really enjoy about this course is the natural setting ( huge trees, forestation, streams, and wildlife). However, the mosquito's almost extracted a pint of blood, but this just par for course at a state park. Overall, I'll go back over and over again with long pants and mosquito spray. Lol Rj
course conditions not up to par
Very wet no drainage ..could not tell the difference between the fairway and rough
Great course
Great course, can't wait to play again now that I know the layout.
Great deal for your money
Gives you a little of everything! Tight holes that require some target play but also some wide open holes justvasking you to crush it! Definetly would play again especially since ladies tees were in great shape which is rare! Thumbs up from all of us!
Nice course
Played the course yesterday with my wife and another couple for $22 per person. Can not beat that deal for this course. The track was in nine shape for late October with a few leaf problems on a some of the greens which we expected. The staff did have a blower out but the leaves were falling faster than they could keep up. This greens were in good shape with some rolling a lot faster than others.
Great coarse / bring the bug spray
Great coarse with good elevation change. Down by the river bug spray is an absolute must.
course was challenging but fair
I enjoyed it will golf it again. Mosquitos were bad but other than that really nice course I recommend it to everyone
too slow
I don't have enough space to explain why this place isn't worth it. Do yourself a solid and find another course near by, because remember this place is a Metro Park...not just a golf course.
money hungry
ATTENTION ALL GOLFERS!!! This place books multiple groups for one single tee time and has NO RANGER on duty! It took me (a single) just about 3 hours to play nine holes w/ a cart. I was told that I actually PAID MORE using GOLFNOW, when GOLFNOW says I'm saving 15%??...But worst of all, after 3 hours of slothing around the front 9, I told the man working that I didn't have another 3 hours to play a 6 hour round of golf and would like a rain check. I was told that I would only be given half credit for 9 holes w/ a cart, and that I would have to pay the other half (after I was told earlier I paid TOO MUCH!) So if you like extremely slow, congested golf that may take 6-7 hours, this place is for you! I will NEVER EVER return to this snobby, money hungry golf course again! Find a course that cares more about YOU the golfer and not just your pockets, like Harbour Club in Belleville, Green Oaks in Ypsi, or Riverview Highlands.
