First time at Oak Ridge was fun!

Came here for the first time last weekend and really enjoyed the course. We played on the Old Course and although the course wasn't overly challenging, it was still fun to golf at.

The course reminds me a bit of Maple Lanes, where there aren't a ton of hazards and have many wide open fairways. I imagine that experienced golfers would be able to play this course easily. The staff is hands down the most helpful that I have seen in a long time.

Also a practice range was very good before we started our round. Mind as well get the bad shots out of the way early!

My biggest complaint were the tee boxes, which appeared to have more sand then grass on them at times. Was hard to get footing down off of the tees many of the times.

Course Conditions Terrible

I have played this course 10-15 times with this being the first time in about 2-3 years. The condition of the Tee-Boxes and Fairways was horrendous. There were MULTIPLE tee-boxes with dandelions between tee-markers 5-6" high. There are over-grown trees on the left-side of the tee-box on #3 and #7 preventing you from playing the tips unless you can aim 40 yards right and hit a sling hook back into the fairway. I've played holes with obstructed tee-shots before that make the shot challenging... This was not one of those circumstances. The tree on #3 blocks 95% of the view from the tips and is only about 30 yards in front of the tee-box preventing you from going over it. It is much the same on #7 where you have to hit a stinger unless you sling-hook it. The greens were okay but had recently been aerated which I found a tad surprising on May 21st and we were not warned about it ahead of time. It is obvious they stopped taking care of this course which is a shame because it used to be one of the top courses around. I had a buddy drive out from Livonia to play with me and I was embarrassed by the conditions he was greeted with. I would NOT recommend this course to anybody at this point until they get their act together.

Always decent

Pretty good course; very reasonable rates; friendly staff. The bunkers that have the newer sand are very nice, but they need to fill in the rest.

Good value, as longa as you have time/patience

Every time I've played this course (avg. 4-5 times a year throughout the season) I've had a terribly-long wait during the first few holes. There have been lines of 4-5 groups waiting on the first tee, making it take up to an hour to finish the first two holes. After hole #4 it really opens up and the pace returns to normal, but patience is required at the beginning. The course was in great shape for the first good weekend of the season (mid-April), although the greens were rough and in progress for being groomed (lot of holes from aeration), so putting wasn't usual (but the greens usually look great by the end of May and play well for amateurs). Overall a good value for the fair course quality.

Nice people!! Challenging holes!

Nice course but the pathway for the carts are EXTREMELY ROUGH!! Marsh Oaks is 10 times worse so have your Irons and drivers covered for protection. Going to the 2nd hole buy the freeway be careful of a big bump if you have a disk problem in your back.

Front nine is less Challenging than Back nine

Greens had been aerated. Must have been short on sand back dressing. Summer greens likely good.
It had rained the night before and the gravel parking lot was full of pot holes, mud and water.
Really long tough 18th hole.
In general, I enjoyed the course.

Accuracy over length! Good greens.

Nice course. Tight and open holes. Lots of water. Good greens for late October. $10 for 18 w cart good deal! You don't to be overly long but accuracy is rewarded as there are some tight driving holes including 18.

Ok course

Similar priced courses were in better shape and better facilities. Beverage cart was seen plenty of times so that was not an issue. Course conditions were below average because of the number people playing the course. Divots not repaired and greens with ball marks. If the price was lower I would play the course again.

Excellent Course

Was recommended by a friend to play this course or Marsh Oaks and I wasn't disappointed. Had a group of guys come out with me and we had a great time. Well manicured tee boxes, fairways and greens. Will be in my rotation of courses to play in the future.

Good value

For $37 this 7:13 tee time Sunday morning was a great value. I was pleasantly surprised with how nice the greens were (aside from the ball marks that players from previous days failed to repair).

Old staple of the community .

Played 27 holes before the leagues came out, the Marsh course was in good condition, greens played soft, and grass was in good condition. The next 9 was played on the old course and it is in need of some TLC, a lot of ruts and tire tracks on the fairways (not from carts), a lot of blemishes on the greens. The golf carts are in need of some attention also, but overall as a red hot deal of the day price it was a great value for the price. FYI just get off the course before the leagues start as it becomes a party atmosphere.
