Harkers Hollow Golf Club

Booked a tee time on Golf Now for $25. At best this course is a place to practice hitting shots without the thought of keeping score. The tee boxes are covered in dandelions and weeds as are the fairways. The rough is insanely horrible. Make sure to play junk golf balls because you will lose several. The greens were recently aerated, and almost all had major burn out spots. Keep in mind the greens have not been aerated on this golf course in over five years. There has been a serious lack of maintenance due to the turmoil of the sale of this facility.

The one female staff member at the front desk, was very accommodating and was forthright and discussion about the conditions of the course. She did not hide anything or state any miss truths.

The course will hopefully come back and be what it was once one , when it was a private club. But they do have a long way and a long road ahead of them yet. There are basic things that every golf course should have ,and this course is lacking many of that. There was not a single cube of ice to be found anywhere on the golf course. I’m sorry, but that is just deplorable!

We spoke to the girl at the halfway house and all she basically had was two choices of beer and crackers and snacks. And there she had no ice either. I doubt she made any money at all considering her inventory and lack of persons, playing the golf course. This course should be limiting its play until they get their act together and turn it back into a golf course. You can see there is some definite character to this golf course and some challenging holes. Hopefully by this time next year that will reclaim it’s glory

Course closed last year and just reopened. Rough had been cut, but still a little high. Greens have addressed and are getting better. Some traps have fresh sand and hopefully everything can continue to improve.

Lots of work still needs to be done, but you can see the potential is there.

The 'rough' was more like a cow pasture, the fairways were rough at best, the greens slow and scarred, and zero amenities of any kind. Even ball washers were non-operational and hole makers virtually invisible. This course should not even be an option on GolfNow.

rough hasn't been mowed for some time if the ball bounces out of the fairway it is in 10 inches of grass, lost many. hydraulic oil striped on greens, what a mess. don't go there!

The rough was so bad you could lose your ball in the 1st cut off the fairway. If you're going to play there, use GolfNow as it is not worth the $49 they want to charge you.

Course was in need of mowing more than anything else

The course is in the process of being sold so the grass was a little bit long but the course layout and staff were very friendly. The course could be the very nice once it's sold and the new owners do the upkeep on the course better. The clubhouse and pool , all the amenities looked very nice I'm sure the course is a gem waiting for the right owner.

*This course was recently sold.* I preface this because it seems the owners didn't spend a dime on this course all year knowing that.

The carts are antique's, the pro shop is bare, no water or towels for the ball washers, tee boxes are rough, tee yardage markers on ground are over grown, sand traps have no sand and are weed traps, fairway are non existent, rough's are overgrown, greens are diseased and have hydraulic fluid on 1/2 of them.

This is one of those course's that they should pay you to play.

Well hit balls are lost in the overgrown fairways and roughs, greens are bumpy and super slow, carpaths are unmaintained and poorly marked, they're no yard markers for 100-150-200 yards that are visible.

Overall I recommend staying away from this course until it has been properly maintained by the new owners.

This course was awful. There were basically no fairways and the grass all around was incredibly high. We'll hit balls were lost and sand traps were foot-tall grass traps.

This course hasn't been maintained in months. Bare spots on the greens, the fairways and rough were too long. When the grass was cut, the clippings were not picked up. More than $5 for greens fee is high.

This course is being sold and hasn't had maintenance for months. The greens were covered with bald spots, the fairways and rough are all overgrown. Where they did cut the grass, they didn't pickup the clippings. This place is just awful.

What used to be a great golf course has deteriorated to a cow pasture. One could lose a ball in the fairways or what pass for fairways. The greens are diseased and untended, uncut.

DONT WAST YOUR TIME OR MONEY. ALAS!!

It seemed like the fairways and rough had not been trimmed in a week. Several ball washers with no water/no towels. Also, the shack at the turn was closed while we were there and that was missed opportunity for the course as our group was ready for a snack and beverages.

Terrible condition. Sand traps have morphed into grass traps. Rough was all over - could not find well-hit balls. Course was in the worst condition of any I have played over the last half-century!

You get what you pay for. New management takes over at the end of the month so it will be interesting to see the changes they make. They will certainly need some money in order to rework much of the course. Fairways and tee boxes are in need of work.

I wasn't aware that the property was being auctioned off until I arrived for the tee time. Having said that, I would have thought it would be in better shape in order to attract higher bids. Bad news.... I was wrong. Good news....The property was purchased and will continue as a golf course. I'm sure with some TLC it will be returned to more acceptable playing conditions. All amenities were closed for months leading up to the auction.
