Good, wide open course.

Have been playing this course for several years. Usually play on weekdays. No waiting on tee box or fairway. Course is in best shape I have seen in past several years. Bermuda is starting to grow on fairways and greens are in excellent shape. Pro shop closed as is typical for COVID-19 precautions. Great deal with Golfnow.

No carts

Wait time for a cart wa over an hour from Ted time booked, course would not give me a rain check since I booked on Golf Now. Cannot cancel on Golf Now, and edit time to call into Golf Now is over 3 hours on their recording. I will lot go bank to that course and I will not use Golf Now any longer.

Hidden gem, diamond in the rough.

I've played the plantation course 3 times in about 30 days. The greens , the greens, The Greens. All that can be done to improve them is for all the lazy players to FIX YOUR BALL MARKS, I know you can get excited actually hitting the green , but please FIX YOUR BALL MARKS!. Due to the wet weather not slot of fairway/ rough maintenance can be done. Some muddy areas . Lift ,clean, place in the fairway is the way to play/keep Pace , enjoy. If you're in the rough, Well practice more! Lol. If you want to increase speed of play, more yardage marker please. I have a Bushnell but a clear plackerd mark or # on sprinkler heads would be awesome. Playing again today, God and weather permitting.

Ole Plantation

The greens are in the best shape I ever seen a green. True roll and ever green was the same speed. The only set back was the fairways were not in good shape. The course doesnt drain properly in some areas, and it was very muddy in some places. Great fun track not that difficult.

Course is in decent shape. Hot deals rate is decent. Rake rate for this course is absolutely ridiculous. Scottsboro should be ashamed. However, through hot deals rate and Golf Pass perks, my round was FREE.
