Decent Executive Course
Good condition; probably not worth the money though for an Executive Course.
Fall Golf
Love playing this course. Great to practice the short game. The trees were beautiful and the course is well maintained.
Great value for irons play
The course is in really nice shape. Well watered and maintained. Great place to work on my short game!
Fun Course, Great for Short Game
This is a really nice course for beginners and more experienced golfers to practice the short game. I've played this course half a dozen times and still enjoy it. As a beginner it is just right for me to play and have success. My husband enjoys practicing his short game.
A good wedge tune up
This is by far the best par 3 course in the metro area, in my opinion. The course is well taken care of and looks wonderful. The clubhouse is nothing special and the range is somewhat packed together but their assortment of things to aim for is pretty fun. Practice green is nice. Some water on this course which provides a little challenge. I have walked every time, no real need to take a cart. Greens were a little slow but that could have just been the day. They have a little area where you can get food but it didn't even look like it was in service. There was also a lot of stuff laying around in the clubhouse. Boxes and such. I try not to be too hard on it though since it is a par 3 course. Pace is alright, short holes means waiting some times. It is close to a freeway so you will hear road noise. You won't swing anything longer than a 7 iron so take note. I like it to sharpen my wedges and short irons.
Nice Short Course
Really like this nice short course. It is perfect for a new golfer like me. The holes are challenging enough to keep my interest and provide me success as well. The 9th hole is the most difficult but fun! Nice driving range too!
Great course for beginners and young ones
Island Lake is a great course for working on your short game for people who golf a lot. It is also a great place for kids to be introduced to the game. The set up is challenging enough for regular players while it offers great opportunities for beginners, and kids to have a safe introduction to the game.
Decent Place
I have hit range balls here quite often. Decent Club House. Nice Range with mats to hit off as well as targets in play.
Course was ok. Incredibly short yardage. Most of the par 3's are at or close to 100 yards. A couple of 150 yard holes and the final hole comes in at just over 250 yards.
Greens were in good shape.
Pace of play stunk as 2 guys held up multiple groups.
Paid $8 for round so I can't complain.
Nice 9-hole course
If you're looking to work on your approach shots with nice, short par 3 holes, this course is for you. Additionally, I was very impressed with the condition of the smooth greens. The staff was also friendly, and the driving range had cool targets and funnels to hit at. I'll definitely be going back there.
Great value
We were on the 9th tee along with 2 other groups waiting for an extremely slow foursome. My only complaint would be that there is no one monitoring pace of play.
Funshortcoyrse
A perfect course for youths and beginners. Wide open and not much trouble. Course was in great shape really enjoyed my round.
Par 3 course built for Beginners.
You shouldn't need any more club than a 9 iron (9i, PW, Putter). The course is very forgiving and shorter then the posted yardage markers.
Hole 8 - Tree obstacle requires a draw; otherwise, you'll miss the green (...don't miss left!).
Hole 9 - It's listed as a Par 4 and is definitely a risk/reward tee shot (as the fairway narrows to roughly 10 yards between two ponds before the green).
*Smarter play is a 150-175 yard tee shot and 50 yard wedge.
Definitely a great course if your focus is on improving short iron play.
Pace of Play = painful
Tee time as at 10:45, we didn't tee off until 11:10. In addition, I reserved a tee time for two ppl and the course added a group of three to our group. With tee times being 8 minutes apart, its difficult for a group of 5 to finish a hole in 8 minutes. The course shouldn't be putting groups of more than 4 together, and should probably move tee times to 10 minutes apart instead of 8.
Next, the group in front of us was painfully slow. We would consistently wait 5 minutes to tee off in between holes. The group in front of us contained a 7 year old kid and a woman who whiffed the ball almost every time. If you're that bad you should probably pick your ball up after a few tries and move on to the next hole.
Overall though the course was pretty nice, I would like to play again if I knew it wouldn't be crowded.
Quick getaway
Nice short course in decent condition, the Teetime online thing sucks and they don't like walk ups. I wish you could just call the course the old fashion way.....
great shape
have not played this course in years. what a treat. great shape, pretty scenery, great course to work on your short game. super friendly staff. thanks guys.
good value for the money
Greens are full but slow, however this is a course designed for learning so that is to be expected. Would be nice if they could use the red white and blue flags to indicate front middle and back but I understand if they can not. Good place to work on the short game and chipping however because of the slow greens not for putting for the more advanced golfer.
Great Par 3 course
Very pretty course tucked back in the woods. We had a early Sun. Morning tee time and hardly anyone was there. The three-some in front of us was the only other group we saw. Nice staff. Let us out early because no one else was around.
Good course to play with the kids.
Played 9 with the kids. Course was in good shape. Fun course to play with kids because there are very few hazards and most of the holes are pretty short.
Thus course was dissappointing
I booked a tee time through Golf Now seeing the yardage was 2900 yards. In all actuality this course is 1200. When we got there the first tee was backed up and we didn't start golfing until 15 minutes after our tee time. After 2 hours on the course we finally made it through the 6th hole and waked off as we had only played 30 minutes of actual golf. This is an excellent starter course or one to go to if you want to work on your short game but that is it. The staff was friendly and the facility looked nice so that is good.
