this course was unique

this course played very tight not much space to have an off shot. sometimes you could not even see where the green was and tight shots needed to be made to the fairway. I really liked this course as it was difficult but you dont need to be a scratch golfer to have a great time. Would golf hear again for the price.

Overall a nice course, nice greens

Been a couple years since I played Old Oaks....usually play the Marsh, which is probably a better value if you can find a good deal. Greens were in great shape, several of the tee boxes were in need of attention, however.
The only negative for me today had nothing to do with the golf course. I was first off the tee and saw just a foursome 20 minutes later on the tee sheet, was looking forward to an enjoyable round of golf and watching the sunrise.....ruined by single walk ons behind me playing speed golf. Just a pet peeve, why even come out and play if you act like you would rather be somewhere else?? Golf is to be savored, not rushed through.

Average course w/ slow play on the weekend.

During check in for the tee time we were paired with another Golf Now twosome and it was revealed that they booked the same tee time for $26 less than our fee. This is concerning in terms of the integrity of the site.

Good value.

Fairly wide open, but don't go messing with the trees or traps. Lots of 40' pines; some OB; traps; a bit of water; but plenty of room to roam. Greens are in great shape and held the short irons well.

Cart paths need repair.

Old Oaks

Fairways and greens on the Old Oaks course are in excellent condition. After recent heavy rains, a few spots of casual water, but they should dry up quickly.

Marsh oaks

As always the course was in good condition and it offers a variety of shots. Water comes into play on quite a few holes which makes the holes more challenging. Overall this course is a very good bang for the buck.

flat greens

The course mapping has changed since they added the additional 18. All the distances were messed up. The pace of play was incredibly slow, the round was not enjoyable at all. Until they do something drastic about pace of play I won, t be back.

Pace of Play is SLOW!

Pace of play was extremely slow on a busy Sunday but foursomes need to use golf etiquette in order to speed up play (hence the USGA new initiative). The course was a little wet but in good condition and the greens were perfect! I will probably play the course again.

I give a 7 out of 10

Was a great day for golf had a good time. Did notice a lot of groups with 2 and three players, a more competitive price may fix that.

This course has made a lot of improvements.

The course layout is good the fairways and greens in pristine conditions. A lot of improvement on the course par 5 #17, #17 pond was filled and you are allowed to hit a long drive - more forgiving, you can reach par 5 in 2. I recommend it, I can play everyday.
