An unloved course
Deerwood is in such bad condition it should be called just "Wood" because even the deer don't want to bother with the course. The course layout is Amazing!! But clearly no one takes care of the course . A good crew who cares and a dog to keep geese & groundhog off the course would be an absolute game changer. The course should list it for sale saying "gr8 course 4 sale to a good home"
Avoid
The fairways are extremely spotty w good grass and no grass. Same with the greens, if they’re cut and in decent shape, awesome. But there’s been 3-4 greens not cut at all and most of them have huge dirt and sand spots. Don’t come here, $78 is not worth it AT ALL.
Nice course
Very nice layout of the course. Not too many par 5s. Our carts didn't have sand bottles, but the fairways were desperately in need of divot repair. The greens were in good shape with the exception of the issues they're having on the back to back par 3 holes on the back 9. Very poor. They've had a lot of rain earlier in the summer which may have taken a toll on the course. I would go back again.
Multiple holes that weren’t playable
3 holes on the course that weren’t playable because the greens were just sand and dirt
Nice layout and friendly staff
This course has good bones and could be a great course with the right course management. My golf cart didn't have any sand bottles which is desperately needed for this course. The excessive rain and temperatures earlier this year took a major toll on the fairways and some of the greens---especially par 3's on the back 9. I liked the course and would gladly return. Hopefully they can bring it back to its full potential.
Horrible conditions
As of August 2025, Deerwood is in the worst condition I have ever seen. About 1/3 of the greens are completely unplayable, a mix of bare dirt and crab grass. It is shameful that they are charging people to play in these conditions. Do not spend your money here.
Course is beat up
I've had peers play this course in the past and always gave it some great reviews. However, after playing myself, I was extremely disappointed in the conditions. Many of the greens were unplayable with huge dead spots. I would describe the quality of some of the greens are under repair, and the course should really be advertised as such.
The course layout is woven nicely through the area, and it is just a shame the course isn't in the shape it should be. There's some cool bridges to drive over and some nice views, but the course conditions didn't leave much to be desired.
Weather has taken a toll on some of the fairways and a few of the greens were unplayable
Nice course that I’ve played before and will play again
Green in poor shape
I really like playing Deerwood but the Greens and bunkers were in terrible shape. The greens were brown and not maintained. The holes were messed up. It is a fun course to play but this time it was not maintained well. Very sad, since it has been a very nice course.
The weather has taken a toll on the course
Some greens in pretty bad shape and a few shaky spots on the fairways. Still a nice course with a decent mix of holes
Not so good. Played this course a long time ago and the conditions were always very good. Not sure what happened to this place. Faiways were very good
Tee boxes were not in good shape. Two greens were totally unputtable. Many greens were not in good shape. The greens that had grass were true. Sorry for the bad review, but the course is not good. I did talk to one of the green keepers who was punching one of the really bad greens, and he really wants to get the course back to where it was years ago.
Worst golf course of all tome
I’ve never played a golf course that was in worse shape in my entire life. They couldn’t pay me to come back
Terrible condition
The course was in terrible condition. There were animal holes and standing water on the greens. I understand it used to be a really nice course, but it was not what I experienced.
