Awesome course. But you will be hitting alot of blind shots so make sure the group in front is clear. Basically drive up the hill then back down. You must do this 3 or 4 times even to find out where the hole is. But overall great course. Wasn't a big fan of the young kid that checked us in. But the guy later in the day made it up. Tell the young kid to smile and just at least want to be there.

Amazing layout with so many blind tee shots with a lot of uphill and downhill approach shots!!

Have to play it to really appreciate it!!!!!

Second time in two weeks to play. Fun course in great shape. Very friendly staff. Had lunch after and that was good as well. Fun day.

Big open fairways. Greens are really fast. Be prepared to hit up and downhill a bit. Very fun.

Loved the layout something different good challenging course

I last played here about 20 years ago, when it was still Mountain Springs, and it looks like I am the first review since it opened up under new ownership just a couple weeks ago, Today was a Thursday morning and I teed off at 7:15 am and played in 3 and a half hours playing a couple balls on each hole.

Course was in really good shape, as you would imagine, seeing as how its had zero play recently.

The greens were PUUURE! Rolling about 11 on the stimpmeter. I just hope the locals learn to fix ballmarks and they stay rolling awesome.

Layout of the course is a little tricky with a couple blind doglegs, where you just have to take the conservative route to the fairway or green if its your first time.

Shop guy was really nice and remembered my grandparents from over 20 years ago.

Pace of play was excellent. Course looked to be getting busier on the front nine when I was finishing up my round, through.

The course is in excellent condition, fairways are green and well kept and greens were perfect. Beautiful views, even scene some wild turkeys.

Greens were excellent, bunkers were good. Fairways a bit firm , tee boxes are in rough shape. Some good value , staff is great, worth checking out if in the area. Not super gimmicky but still many blind shots necessitate some course knowledge or a bit of driving around which is a bit tiresome.

This course is severely affected by the drought.
The greens were excellent - the best seen here in 20 years, and far better than at Greenhorn or Saddle Creek (all three courses played the same weekend).

The Mnt Springs fairways were hardpan. They obviously have decided to water the greens, and they were perfect.

The course, as usual, was very tough. Bring your game.

I play generally this course twice a week. Lots of up and down, sloped fairways and elevated greens. The course never plays the same twice given shot variation and roll. The greens are in great shape. Some of the bunkers could use some work, best to avoid these anyway. Great views and vistas.

It's a nice course. I had 3 people with me that had never played there before. We all had a good day and a fun time.

It really is (or was) a nice course. the lack of care and attention is taking its toll. Sand traps are uncared for and overgrown. Fairways are very dry and grass is dying. Tee boxes are in need of some care as well. Pace of play is extremely slow as there is no players assistants or marshals to be seen. very frustrating !!

Recommend you ask at the clubhouse for a yardage book before you play; if you've never played here, this one will eat you up.
Built through the rolling hills, you'll hardly get a level lie.
After you finish the brutal 9th, and swear youll never play here again, pauseonthe back and listen. Few places we can go and hear......... Nothing
Really cool.

This was my 1st time I've played this course and will not be my last. This course is a good test for all levels of golf. You might hit a beautiful shot and due to the slope find your ball 50 yards to the right or left. You got to give it a try we found the greens to be fast and a bit tricky. Go Play!

The greens on this course are great . The fairways are taken care off and are cut very short which are nice . Would play again most definitely.

I love to play this course because of the hazards, elevation changes and the fact that they keep the course in great shape.

Playing this course was a pleasant experience from the time we entered the pro shop to check in until we finished playing 18. The course was in top condition and the view is awesome in every direction.

The greens r really fast. Course is n good condition.

Got a great deal on GolfNow. Awesome staff. Had lunch before our round. The 1/2 lb hamburger was great. Hand cut fries! Wife had the chicken sandwich on ciabatta bread with a side salad. She loved it. Great service.

The practice range was ok. Hit from mats on highly elavated platform. Helped with loosening up & impact, but not distance. Range balls were old & need of replacement.

Course conditions were very nice. The greens were spongy & stuck very well. Could spin the all pretty easily & they were some of the I have seen in awhile. The fairways were cut nicely, but extremely sloped & challenging. You must place the all well off the tee or suffer the consequences. The traps had nice soft sand in them but needed work cutting them in & shaping them. They lacked definition. But, fairly easy to exit out of. Many blind shots off the tee & a ton of side hill / up hill / down hill lies. Anything out of the fairway is trouble.

Synopsis:
If you are looking for a very nice course, priced right, with lots of challenge, then this is a must play. Novices will struggle here & probably quit after 9 holes. But, the price is worth 9 holes. I will play here again & manage the course differently. The yardage book was given to us, & helped tremendously.

I shot a 79 & the wife gave up after 9. My handicap is a 7.

After many years of playing in the flat valley .... this course was very challenging but FUN. I loved all the elevated tees ... and loved the yardage of the par 3s especially. If not familiar with the course .. it has a lot of blind shots. The pro shop was kind enough to give us a course yardage book. Our pace of play was "perfect" until we got to the 10th hole and suddenly found a man and his (beginner) son on the tee in front of us. They were NOT in front of us on the front nine ... so we thought this was quite rude not to mention it slowed our pace of play noticeably as we now had to wait on each tee. We did quit after hole #12, partly because my husband wasn't feeling well, but mostly because we were now having to wait for a twosome who had obviously cut in front of us. Other than that I thought it was fun to play but quite strenuous with the severe slopes on the course.Even with all the up and down holes I felt it was still very playable, even for a high handicapper like me.
