Never met a stranger

I love this course because the grounds are always well cared for, the greens are large and receptive, and the fairways, though narrow, are never ragged-looking. The staff are polite and friendly and I've never had to play as a single.

Absolutely amazing course

Conveniently right next to the world golf hall of fame, this place is unreal. Perfect fairways and greens. Challenging, but true. A must play for any golfer. Its such a beautiful course. Sand and water play into most shots and fairways are narrow, so your approaches have to be spot on. Book it!

Nicest course I've ever played

This place is any golfers dream. Beautiful holes. Sand and water play heavily into most approaches, but fairly wide fairways. Pristine fairways and greens roll true. A must play for any golfer!

Disappointed

The course was good except for the greens which were in poor condition. Expected more from a course that charges 4Xs as much as other courses in the area.

Masters Round at S&S

Great conditions (weather, course, and facilities). Held up a little by twosome playing slow (we were a foursome). Only thing that keeps me from giving 5 stars everywhere was pace of play (average) and cost of round at about $90.

Exceptional conditions & great layout

I was in town for business and extended it one day to make sure and play King & Bear. The prices on GolfNow.com were $169 up until 2 days before I played. I had read that you could find a good deal if you waited until a few days before. I was able to find a "Hot Deal" on golfnow.com for $99. I am from Arizona and right now it is hard to find a goat track for less tha $50/round, so I was okay with paying $99. The course was in fantastic shape. The greens ran fast, but were fair. I am a 4 handicap and played from the Black tees (they don't leave the "stone" tee boxes out there for regular play. The blacks were still a challenge at 6,800 yards. What I liked most about the course is that every hole is different. Some bend left others right. Most require driver, but playing a 3 wood or long iron off a few make more sense. Trees, bunkers, and water all come into play throughout the course. Loved it and would recommend it to any decent golfer (less than 20 handicap).

This course lives up to its name

Great day, great weather, greens were true, fairways in great shape, a little tighter than its sister course, loved the layout, would not hesitate to play it again. Staff, club house and overall facilities the best. Got a decent rate off list price from golf now what more could you ask for.

This course was well designed

The course was ok but the greens had just been sanded and no one said anything. Was some of the worse greens I have played in a long time. Would not play this course again.

Very Enjoyable

Came down from Augusta. Course condition was very good. Staff was very friendly. Apples on 1 and 10 were outstanding. Joined up with two very nice gents. Will try Squire and Slammer next visit, but wouldn't hesitate
to play King and Bear again.

Poor pace of play

For a premium course in great shape, one should expect a better pace. We were told pace was averaging 4 Hrs 10 Min. We walked off the 14th green at that mark. Don't know how long the round would have been due to having to leave after 16 to catch a flight. But it would have been about 5:20.

Luxury at it's best

Beautiful course designed and operated as "something special". It lived up to it's billing!
Facility & staff were equally impressive. We thank GolfNow rewards program for making it possible for us to play such a fine course!
Also enjoyed the Golf Hall of Fame very much.

K&B has a great layout .

Hi,
I truly enjoyed this course... a real treat because I got a great hot deal from GolfNow !!!
I probably would not have played if I had to pay full price. My only regret is that I wasn't in the area long enough to play the Slammer & Squire course.

Thanks,
Leftylouis

Questionable value for it's high price

The course is very nice but not close to 3X nicer than other courses in the area- not even close.

The range was free but busy and no one was collection golf balls (supply nearly depleted). We expected a high end golf course to have GPS in the carts and they did not. There are houses on many of the fairways and more being built (but houses are well out of play) but still this is a distraction not a plus for expensive golf. I live in the area and have played most courses. The K&B course has many pretty holes but so do many other courses at 1/3 the price and many include GPS. It was in good condition, and loved they supplied apples on ice but the apples don't make-up the difference in price.

enjoyable

I really like this course. It is expensive, if you use golf now you may want to wait to the last minute. I booked in advance @ $109.00. The rate on golf now dropped to $79.00 a couple of days before my tee time. The greens were fast and true and the fairways were in great shape. the rough was not deep. there is enough water to make it interesting but not real difficult. I have a high handicap, however, I really enjoyed playing this course.
