It’s worth the playing experience.

Challenging and picturesque. Wonderful design/layout. Premium is on iron approach and putting. If conditions are wet, wait....“take a rain break”, the course drainage is as good as possible, it just retains water throughout!!!

Enjoyable !

Not worth what is charged. Greens are very well maintained-rest of the course is simply so so.

Love hate

This is a beautiful course. With no recent rain the fairways were cut tight and they were dry which made clubs Heads bounce If you don’t make perfect contact with the ball. The greens are US Open fast. If you land below the flag in many cases the ball will role off the green. If land above the flag putting down hill is impossible, even the slightest tap of the putter sends the ball 20 feet past the hole. There was no sense in the greens being that fast. If they would fluff up the fairways just a little and slow the greens just a little it would make for a more enjoyable round. Save the us open setup for when you host the us open.

Fun Course but challenging

Greens had been sanded recently...but still were pretty fast. Course is in great shape. Even though we’ve been getting rain almost daily, it drains well...no wet spots and no cart path only holes. Pretty open driving holes but know your yardages to pins. Course favors more of a right to left ball flight off most tees...good short game is helpful here. Staff is friendly and we played at our own pace with no problems at all.

Great condition!

This is a beautiful course in impeccable condition. I made the hour drive because I heard so much about it and it did not disappoint. The greens were the fastest I have ever played. I was warned by the starter and warmed up on the practice green but it still took a few holes to get in a groove. I booked a hot deal and the value was there for a hot deal. I felt it was more then fair at the hot deal price point but I've played as nice for much less then the full rate posted. This is a great track with some elevation changes and blind shots. It might take a 2nd round to really score so you know the course. Expensive but worth it if your wallet can swing it.

Barnsley Gardens - July 19, 2020

The course was in beautiful shape. The greens are very fast. Short game is a necessity here. On Sunday afternoon, the course was not busy. Pace of play was ours to determine.
