Golfer Reviews
Disappointing
Was looking forward to playing after reading previous reviews ... Tee time 2:50 was backed up at first tee ... No one at 10th!
A 4some before us .. A group of 5 before them... Ridiculous slow ... Even to the point as group ahead of us waited until the 5 some was onto next tee before hitting even tho the 4 some rarely made it past red tee box! If that wasn't frustrating enough ... Balls were landing on tee boxes from all directions... As we were approaching the green a golfer hit behind us and landed a foot in front of us.... Would not recommend or go back... Really disappointed... Course wasn't that nice either... No comparison to Stony Creek, another Metropark
Always enjoy the Metro Park courses.
One of the better Metro Park courses. The greens were in excellent condition. Even though the Slope may indicate a "moderate" course, don't be fooled. There are some tough and long par 4's....#'s 3, 11 and 18 come to mind . Hole #12, a par 3, is nice but "death" if you are right or left. I played on a Friday at noon and finished 18 in 3 Hrs. Staff was/is extremely friendly. Got a sandwich at the turn...they do not skimp on the meat and the prices are very reasonable. Always enjoy the ever present wildlife. Will always come back here. Great value for money. I see that too many people complain about the park entry fee. Do something nice and feel good about yourself....buy a yearly pass...support the parks.

Greens are perfect, the best metro park course in my opinion.
A Beautiful and Relaxing Day Playing Golf
Most people will like this course because its is laid out on lots of property within a Metro Park in Natural Surroundings in the suburbs. It is very playable for most levels of players with an excellent Practice Area. Nature abounds on this course with Wild Turkeys, Deer and Fox. It is enjoyable to play because the holes are spread out so you don't have people from adjacent holes playing on your fairway. This course would easily rank around a 85 out of 100 for most golfers.
Hidden charges
Be aware that this is a Metropark and if you don't have an annual sticker, it's $10 to get in. If you are golfing on a hot deal, they will not refund the entrance fee ( you usually get $8 back at pro shop ). That hot deal all of a sudden isn't so hot.
Otherwise, it's a nice course with wide open fairways. Pace can be slower than you might like.
Dress Code
Overall this a nice course with 4 tee boxes to accommodate all levels of "good" golf. Paired up with 2 gentlemen who were just below fair and it made for a long round. 4 Hrs 30 Min. for a threesome. Also one had on a heavy metal type tee shirt and levi shorts. The only good thing was that the other played the senior tee box and that shorten his errors. Lots of seniors playing the whites and caused quite a delay on some boxes. Don't think I will be back
Good and long course but good for golfer that plays a lot
I always love to play this course not too hard and not easy either ladies friendly golf course they only thing for this course you have to pay the park fee which is 10.00 each time you enter the park unless you buy a whole year membership which is 22.00 dollar for senior
Slow
Took us 3 hours to play 9 holes greens were slow
Early in the year
Everything looked like it needed just a little bit more time to Green up the course was overbooked
Meh
The course was just ok. Early season conditions but the layout is somewhat monotonous. There are nice elevation changes but other than that it was ho hum.
The course was jammed up with no ranger to move people along. There was a 10 minute wait at every hole. We skipped two holes; otherwise it would have been a 6 hour round.
I had a Golf Now super deal so I don't feel like I over paid, but I doubt I will ever play here again, even with another deal.
We are aware from previous posts that "effective" marshaling is needed at the course and we are addressing those issues by offering training to the volunteer marshals. We apologize for the lack of marshal visibility as there was mandatory training started that particular morning which kept them off the course until later in the AM.
25 bucks + fee good value
have to pay 10 bucks to get in but they take 8 off for the parking pass when u bring it in
great golf pastoral setting peaceful
great golfing staff extremely friendly courteous smiles
Indian springs
Very nice metropark course, great condition except a green or two had some dead patches
Must get rangers to actually move people along
I play here 9-10 times a year, you gotta pick your times on this course or you'll be waiting forever for the groups in front of you as the Rangers search for balls in the woods.
The course is challenging, 3,4,6,7,13,15,17&18 are very challenging and demand a good tee shot from the Blue tees.
Well maintained, green speed is ok, not great, staff friendly....
NOTICE: Book tee times on Metroparks.com & avoid the booking fee from golfnow...you don't even need a credit card, just set up an account... $5 will be taken off your round as you'll pay $7 just to get into the park, just make sure you present your daily pass at the proshop!
Off to a bad start
Showed up no one going off the front but they insisted we go off the back. So we waited to tee off then had 3 groups in front of us and 2 behind. It was a mess. They should have been staggering groups instead of waiting for the guys that "should be making the turn soon" come. The course was being aerated so we had to deal with half the fairways that where a mess. In the middle of prime season? Really guys. Greens where in bad shape and the sand traps are more like gravel traps. I don't think my sand wedge will ever be the same. Overall not bad for the 18$ and change I spent on golf now but I would never pay full price.
Beautiful Course Very Well Kept
We had a great day for golf, the course was very well maintained and almost perfect. Played the round in 3&1/2 hours with the 2 of us. Couldn't have asked for a better day.
Longest Round I've Ever Played
Not the first time I've played here. I think the course is fairly nice but it took over 3 and a half hours to play 9 holes because there was a family golfing 3 groups ahead of us. First tee box was backed-up with 4 groups and we waited for at least 15 minutes on each tee box. The family finally let the 2 groups ahead of us play through on the 6th hole. When we were on the 7th tee box we could see the next group finishing up on the 9th hole. Would have been a much more enjoyable experience if we could've played at a normal pace.
Way Too Slow
I am really disappointed in my recent trip to a local establishment. Had a tee time scheduled for Sunday afternoon, and we were 3 groups deep before tee off; all twosomes. We couldn't even get through our 1st 9 holes before we just moved on to the back; walkers paired with riders, groups of 6, a novice foursome, and no rangers to move along pace of play. Once we reached the back 9, the pace picked up but then we had random singles and twosomes jump in front of us and we were pushed back again, never seen a ranger once. We finally gave up after 5 hours and only playing 14 holes.Too bad, great price and the course was in great shape but I'd rather pay extra for a better managed course.
The course is aware of the "overbooked" feel you experienced. We have addressed this issue by changing our tee time intervals to every 8 minutes in the PM to not put as many groups out per hour as in the past. Please be aware, golf reservations are always maximized whenever it is 75 degrees and sunny such as the day you played and we did have a full house. We appreciate your patronage!
