Great Gorge Golf Club - Lake/Quarry Course

Played this golf course last week, excellent layout very good greens overall conditioning very good. everything else about it is very old, carts are old,

The cart paths are original and the driving range is an afterthought. kind of an eerie feeling when you drive in you see the decaying original Hotel.

In the end here you always want to play good greens and this place delivers so expect very little other than an old layout with good greens.

Bring your own game make sure you have a foursome because I had two players with me who should not have been on that course and made the experience awful

Played several times and always in above average conditions and awesome pace and great price regardless of time of week

If you charge more than $100 for a round, and your bunkers are a gravel pit, you get 1 star.

Great course, not for beginner golfers. Greens are fast but can be faster if they wanted. With this heat they have to be careful not to burn them out. Danny and staff couldn’t be more accommodating everytime I show up!

Great Gorge is such a beautiful place to play golf. The people that work there are always so helpful and friendly .

Course in good condition overall..

Pros: greens in very good condition,

Cons: parking lot and cart paths still in bad conditions. Bunkers are hard and full of stones.

Fairways still have issues especially Lake #5,6, Quarry #7,8, Rail #9, etc

Great course with length. Extremely difficult to high handicap golfers but beautiful nonetheless.

The golf course has three unique nine-hole layouts: quarry ,lake, and rail. Last time I played quarry and rail, this time I played quarry and lake. The quarry course is very cool it has some very unique style holes that you won't find anywhere. Playing through openings in rock formations, playing around a farm silo. etc. I really enjoyed the lake course I'm so glad I was able to play it this time. It was a beautiful layout in between water on some of the holes. It was the flattest of the three courses but still challenging because of the dog legs and the water. I would say of the three the lake is the most enjoyable to play.

Not a bad course but not with the money they charge. Prices up there at Crystal Springs are getting out of control... Great Gorge not with $100 to play a round ($65-$75 would be fair), Wild Turkey is a nice course but not worth the $140 they charge ($80 - $100 would be fair) and Ballyowen at $240 is INSANE

Beautiful course. Great greens. Previous rainy days required path only for carts. Terrible paths in need of extensive repair. On any other day you can drive on the fairways.

The golf experience was better than I expected. When we entered the property and saw the closed down hotel and the conditions of the parking lot we were not expecting a good course. When we saw the conditions driving range and cart paths we almost asked for a refund. I am glad we stayed for the actual golf course. The fairways, greens and tee boxes were very nice. Greens are very challenging and overall it was a fun course to play.

The worst part of the day was a wedding planned for later in the day. Hef's Hut, the restaurant on the property, was closed the entire day because of the late day wedding. That meant no food or indoor plumbing for our group of 6. Then when approaching our last hole for the day a marshal came out and said we have to hurry up because the wedding would be starting soon they didn't want our playing to interfer with the party.

Total lack of planning. We could have played a different back nine (they have 3) and no one would have been disturbed. You can't shut down indoor plumbing for an entire day because you have a wedding at 5:00 on a Saturday night. Even the staff said the wedding was a mistake and would probably be the last one they do.

My friends and I all agree we would go back to play the couse but we would definitely check on other events happening at the course first
