Good layout, Great value

I was pleasantly surprised by Goose Pond Lake Course. I assumed from the deal I got through Golf Now that it probably wouldn't be much more than a decent goat track given today's insane rates most courses charge. But that was a bad assumption. The course was in good condition and had a decent layout with lots of trees/water/elevation changes. Though the pace of play slowed to a crawl on the back 9 due to a five some (which shouldn't be allowed) holding up multiple groups, I still finished in around 4.5hrs. I would definitely play there again if I get the chance and would recommend it to anyone looking for a decent challenge at a great value.

Goose pond lake course

Lake course conditions were good to very good: challenging layout via elevation changes and doglegs.

Played a hot deal via golf now App~ so goood value. ,! Pace was decent 18 in 3.75 hr on a Tuesday afternoon.staff were professional.

Carts were Gas powered and worked well. No gps on carts which is a plus as I brought my own rangefinder.

Fun scoring course

Good ball striking will set you up to score well here. Greens putt true. Be confident in attacking the cup with putter. Shy putts can be eaten up by some grain in the greens. Overall, the course looks confident to the eye. You'll want to go low (on the scorecard).

Winter golf

Course has no over finding and a few holes need build up and planed better for drainage sand bunkers were unplayable but yet there was a lot of rain lately and GPP remains one of my favorites for its location and friendliness of all that play there

Sunny Day in February

Course is in ragged shape, Regular course rates are much too high and so are the Hot Deals.
