Nice Course

Play this course several times during the golf season. The course is lovely. Runs along the lake, so the scenery is beautiful. Right now it's the winter fairways, so they don't have really any green to hit off of, but other than that, it's a great course. Can't wait till Spring/Summer for this course...it's always fun to play.

Worth the drive.

This course is an excellent value for the price. The fairways are dormant so there are bare spots. However, The greens are in excellent condition and are well maintained. Choose your tee based on ability vice pride.

Pro-style course

On the day I played, the weather was absurdly brutal. Cold (50 degrees) and misty. The course was wet but held up beautifully. The greens remained impeccable (firm and quick). The design of the course is wonderful. Extremely challenging, thoughtful to play.

Wonderful greens!

Spent a great Saturday afternoon on this course. Course conditions were not bad considering the lack of rain lately. The greens were fantastic and true. Only problem I had were the leaves on the fairways. Lost a couple of balls after I hit them right down the middle. I'll be back.

Worth the trip

I play GPC and GPP once every year and always look forward to it. The greens and fairways are in wonderful shape, despite the lack of rain. The staff takes great pride in providing a wonderful golfing experience for its patrons. Cant wait to come back next year.

Beautiful course

Every time I play this course I can't get over how beautiful Goosepond Lake is. Always in good condition; however greens are not quite as good as it's sister course, Goosepond Plantation. I highly recommend both courses for a great golfing experience!!

Best greens in the South
