Stay Away
Had a 10:50 pre paid GN Tee Time, showed up at 10:20 to find the entire club locked down with no lights on. After 40 minutes of trying to call the course and GN one of their employees showed up and said he would get us sorted. At that point we said don’t worry about it, 40+ minutes past our tee time wasn’t worth it. The club employee informed us that he was going to check us in anyways so we would still be charged via GN. Still in dispute between the course and GN, but GN should be able to see when the course “checked” us in and see that it was well past our scheduled tee time because their shop employees can’t show up for 3+ hours after they are scheduled to open. Entire process makes me never want to play that course again and drop my GN membership. Terrible experience from the course and Golf Now.
Place needs some work
Don’t understand how this place is $60 dollars a round when it’s got dirt piles for tee boxes, and the greens being in the shape they are in.
Don’t have a tee? No worries they have not picked any up in months so you have a nice selection
Cart path.. yeah they don’t really have one where your drink won’t jump out the cups holder
Rough Around Edges but Worth Price
The staff was super friendly and easy in and out. Never too crowded as the course could use some more work. Since the trees were taken down between holes on front 9 it is a little easier to play and lot more forgiving. Biggest drawback is its kinda in no mans land between Charlotte and Hickory so drive is a bit long
Room for improvement
I had a tee time at 9:40 AM. When I arrived at the first tee, I noticed that there were three more groups with tee times just five minutes apart. It seemed like they were trying to maximize their revenue. Additionally, there were many trees that had been cut down on the side of the fairway, not picked up. No range. Greens, fairways and tee boxes in good shape. Great staff.
Good layout
For the money the course has great layout and the greens are very good! Need some work on the fairways and rough.
Gotten better
They’re removing some trees but the course itself was pretty good
Owner don’t care
As a beginner, this course is not took care of. I have a $30 discount and still was not worth the money. Course is not well taken care of, very high grass. Had trees cut down just laying on ground. Very disappointed with the course due to the area it’s in. Talked to locals, they said owner don’t care about course and wants to sell for houses. Would not recommend to any level of golf player.
What a turnaround
Huge improvement over last year. They cut down a lot of trees. And some folks are mad about it. I’m so happy they did. It’s letting the grass actually grow in. And you can actually see fairway/rough and not just a goat track. The cartpath still needs work and the greens are very slow but it’s clear they’re making an effort to improve this place and bring it back. It’s not an overnight thing but it’s a public course and a good value. I played 9 with a cart for $27. That’s the cheapest around and definitely worth it now. Last year I would have told you any cost was too much. But this year is a different story. I’m excited about the future of this local muni.
Excellent Value & Course
Gave this place a shot even after reading all the terrible reviews. I was unbelievably surprised at what I found. The tee boxes, fairways, and greens were all well taken care of and in great shape. There are a lot of dead trees around from what appears to be a landscaping project but they are not in or on the course itself. If fact, if you like to hit into the woods a lot, you may have an easier time finding your ball. Either way, this is an outstanding course for the fees they charge.
Opposite of country club
Course itself is entertaining. They took down a lot of trees and have not cleaned it up. Cheap course. A few fun holes where your second shot is far more challenging than the first. Overall affordable to the average Joe and meant for the average Joe.
Forced pairing was painful
The course was in poor condition, at least the front nine, and couldn't use driver until the 6th hole which didn't make for enjoyable play. Add that to being paired with another two-some that didn't know how to play ready golf and keep the pace of play smooth; other groups were waiting behind us and/or skipping ahead of us because they kept us so slow. One was drinking, smoking pot, playing loud music, spending a lot of time talking with everyone along the golf course. After taking almost 3 hours to play the front nine, we quit and left despite having paid for and intending to play 18.
Don’t even think about it
Trees have been cut along the entire course and just left on either sides of every fairway.
