Great course.
The greens were great. Course was still really wet from all the rain, cart oath only. Great time.
Beauty on the Lake
These is an excellantly laid out tract with lake views on practically every hole and yet the wrap around lake is never an imposing hazard. It is always well maintained with perfectly rolling fast greens. This course is also one of the most playable in the area during wet months.
Awesome
Live the course lay out and really love the new greens
Perfect greens
Course was in excellent condition for winter and the greens were absolutely perfect.
One of my 2 favorite courses. The lake course is the other.
Wonderful Greens! Enjoyed entire course thoroughly!
If you want a challenge putting, then try The Lake course at Goose Pond. Perfectly smooth, a challenge to read but true, and a real challenge approach putting to that apple-basket. I'll be back regularly. Teeing grounds are all manicured. Fairways are in nice shape, few divots or imperfections. Rough was rough, and grabby [hated it], but all the more incentive to hit fairways. Frog hair and fringes were fair to chip from. Four sets of teeing grounds made it a reasonable challenge for any golfer of any skill. I had to restrict myself to the Blue Tee's, one up from the Champions Tee . . . at 67 I don't have the "girth" to hit it further than 240-250 necessary to play back. You'll enjoy it.
Soggy...
It had rained all week so Course was pretty wet. Apparently doesn’t drain to well but we still had a good time.
Still a Great Course
Goosepond Lake Course was one of my first loves in golf, and I have been playing there for 25 years. This past round was my best ever there, but I do want to point out there the greens are quite dry and deceptively fast or slow, depending on the hole. There wasn't a lot of consistency. Otherwise, everything was in stellar shape as usual!!
Beautiful greens
Greens were wonderful (although I found them difficult to read). Fairways were nice. If you were off the fairway, expect to spend some time looking for your ball; difficult to see unless you are right over your ball.
Good experience
Hills, valleys, lakes, mountain views – all good – true greens – stayed at the resort campground next door.
Nice
Beautiful greens – wide fairways – a really good experience!
Course has improved over the past few years. Fairways are excellent. Greens are in very good shape.
First time
I travel around and enjoy playing new courses. This course was in good condition, liked the view it would probably nice in the fall especially since it so hot in July. The lay out of the course was nice. It was a two hour drive but well worth it. I will be back.
Golf with my dad
Course is in good shape. Greens, tees and fairways are in excellent shape. However, the sand traps are AWFUL. They are totally unplayable. We played on Tuesday. The course is closed for maintenance on Monday. Apparently, that does NOT include sand traps. Also, the course is priced at least 20 percent too high. This FACT may account for the lack of business.
Great course
Played here twice and I love its layout especially the par 3s. Definetly will be back and will be telling my friends about the pacey greens as well.
Great time!
My son and I got there an hour early to putt and just loosen up, but there weren’t many golfers there at that time so the staff let us go ahead and tee it up. Nice course and pretty wide open for the ones with power fades (slicers).
Great Shape
Greens are in the best shape I have seen them at this course. Overall the course is in great shape for the weather we have had recently.
Fantastic greens
The greens at the Point are always in great shape. There are two greens that are not kind to me (#10 and #12) due to their smallish size and/or the way they are laid out for your approach shot. This course is a great value round for the cost. The staff members are always friendly and accommodating. The course can be played fairly to your ability as you have 5 tee box options. This is a good place to play if you are struggling from the tee as it is very open.
