Opened in 1929, Old Orchard Country Club has a classic design with challenges that stand up to modern golf courses. Throughout the course, you'll see traces of the site's former use as a farm. Ancient apple trees from the original orchard frame many of the holes. The diverse layout will test you with a variety of different shots but the gently rolling terrain makes for an easy walk. Skill and strategy will be generously rewarded but it's not an overly punishing layout for the high handicapper. Old Orchard's greens play true and fast and they are often flanked with strategically positioned bunkers. A stream wanders through the golf course, coming into play on several holes. Golfers will face a tricky island green on the par-5 seventh hole as well as an almost-island green on the par-4 13th.

Not the best

It was fun to play but we lost multiple balls in the middle of the fairway bc nothing is cut down. The layout is elite and this course would be so pure if someone just cared about maintaining it. The greens are bad and the grass looks like it’s from a big field where anything and everything is growing. I hope someone saves this place.

Golf course ?

You are hardly to find the ball on fairway you played. Fairway likes rough. Rough likes jungle.

Hot mess

I'm brand new to the golfing world, but this is one of the worst Golf courses. I have ever been to. This Golf course is falling apart. The grass was being cut as we were playing.The sand traps have no sand and animals living in it. The clubhouse and the parking lot were all run down.i would not recommend to anyone.

This is worse than a dog track. it's a cow pasture. Fairways were 5 inches long. Course should be removed from GolfNow. this isn't a golf course anymore. What a shame. The course used to be a gem. Now its a field.

Run away!

This course was absolutely terrible, zero maintenance, tee boxes were non existent, you could literally lose your ball in the fairway it was so tall and full of weeds. Greens were shag carpet. Terrible course. And on top of that 20 dollar cart fee per player. Absolute waist of time and money.

Not Really a Golf Course

Got to course, no carts ; riding or walking a ailable

Golf Course is not maintained..Ive seen cemeteries that are in better shape

Grass not mowed, no concept of a fairway

Greens are a battlefield

Tried to work with Glof ow Customer Support but that was a poor experience as well

I should be refunded and this course should be removed from lineup

First and last time playing at this course

Course was not maintained. No carts available even though we payed for one. Didn’t get any money back and the course wasn’t playable. Do not recommend booking a tee time at this course

Please Sell this course to someone who cares

Simply put, do not play here march-October. Nothing is taken care of. Greens are shot, fairways full of weeds. But, winter golf here is fine. Everything is dead. The layout is awesome. This course has so much potential. Makes me sad to see how poorly taken care of this course is.

Unacceptable Condition — Don’t Waste a Round Here

Old Orchard was by far the worst course I’ve ever played. With it being early in the season, I saw the price and figured, why not play a round instead of hitting the range — that was my biggest mistake. The tee boxes were poorly maintained; many were uneven, making it tough to find a decent spot to tee off. Fairway conditions were practically nonexistent — it felt more like hitting out of patchy rough than any properly cut grass. The bunkers were completely neglected, dried out, and compacted, offering no playable sand. The greens were in brutal shape, with dead patches, inconsistent speeds, and surfaces that wouldn’t hold a putt. The routing of the course had some decent design elements, but the overall lack of maintenance overshadowed any positives. At this point, it’s impossible to justify a return unless there’s a complete overhaul. Save your time — play somewhere else.

Why????

I don’t understand why a course with such a nice layout is being left to die. The maintenance to this course was horrible . You can’t realistically putt on the greens. Most traps are just weeds with hard dirt. The county should take over this course and bring it back to life. It was almost hard to justify paying $25 which I thought was goi g to be an amazing deal. You get what you pay for in life

Horrible As Usual

Horrible greens, tee boxes, pace of play due to no ranger, no water and even no white or blue markers on hole 13. Please sell the place!

We can’t play serious for golfing.

If we want to play golfing seriously, unfortunately we can’t … Nice location and nice property , layout.

If we will come to Surfing around there, we still choose this with promo code.

Stop playing here

Why anyone plays here is amazing.

You’d be better off going to a baseball field and hitting there.

Stop giving this “course” a dollar
