Fun layout, great staff, poor conditions

We played on a kind of rainy day, but the course was in pretty bad shape. Fairways were average but the greens were bad. Very slow, a LOT of sand on them even though they aerated 2 months ago. Impossible to make a putt with the un-true speeds and cut. The tee boxes also need some work… some you can’t get a tee in them at all.

The layout is a blast and very challenging but fair. We will go back in the spring and hope the greens are doing better.

It has to be said, some of the nicest golf course folks work there. The guy in the pro shop was great. The staff in the snack house were amazingly friendly! Great experience in that way.

Overall great golfing experience at Black Mount! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful when arriving.

Course conditions were in great shape and the overall layout of the course was challenging but very fair. Highly recommend you giving it a shot.

The course was in good shape. they aerated but filled in with sand. Some holes were challenging because you could not see where you needed to drive but had direction from Garmin. Overall we enjoyed the course and had fun. Lost a few balls.

I love this course but

I love playing this course; however, the greens on this visit were a mess. I know that they are probably preparing for winter but there was no real putting as there was so much sand on the greens that it was almost unplayable. I was also surprised by the amount of kill on the fairways with large areas of brown patches. This was my wife’s first time playing here and she was not impressed by the shared fairways on the front 9. I will be back but next year after it recovers from the winter.

Sandcastles on the greens

The greens are un-puttable due to the extreme amount of sand used to plug the holes caused by aerating the greens.

Great Mountain course.

Fun to play, our first time. Lots of side hills, ball placement is critical. First time players will likely do badly and use some foul language. Cart paths need some work, staff is great! 740 yard par 6, really!!!😜

The course was in pretty good shape! The greens were pure and rolled quick. The course was overall fun and also challenging. Not a course I would use a driver a lot, but was still able to have a good time.

The views were amazing!

Also, hit up the grill at the turn. Really good prices on food and drinks.

Would play here again when I visit.
