Enjoyable round, lots of construction that likely takes away from why it was called Woodlands. Course is in good shape, greens were affected by a previous jr event where divots were not properly repaired. Feel like the grounds crew will be working to get it back together by the weekend

Fun walking course

It was a good course for walking but a little strenuous when leaving and getting back to car. It was also humid.

Beware address, but great when you get there!

It is not clear that you need to go to the regular 18-hole course to pay, then transit to the actual Par 3 course. The address for the Par 3 course takes you to a random set of homes 15 minutes from the course. Then, you actually need to know to go to the 18-hole course. But, challenging and fun 9-hole track, great for family and low stress play. Quite challenging with elevation changes and water.

Sunday

Was a great course. Started on time at 10:30. But at the ninth hole a group of six jumped in two ahead of us and slowed the whole game down. The people in front of us said something to them but it didn’t matter. No big deal. Was a great course and I would go back

Great par 3. Well maintained.

Course is in good shape right now. The turf is nice and the greens are in good shape.

Pace was great. Basically nobody out here. 3 groups total at weekday midday. Played in about 50 minutes taking my time.

Good variety here too. Several holes from 80-110 yds, with bunkers and water hazards. A couple at 140-150. And the last hole is challenging. You have to carry up to 160 depending on the tee location to clear the pond and hit basically an island green surrounded by thick forest. Bring some old balls you don’t mind sacrificing to the golf gods.

Good course but over priced

For plus $130 the course should be in much better shape. There really is not much rough, its pretty good fair ways and them dirt, rocks and leaves.

9th hole is unplayable

Course condition is poor, the bunkers are inconsistent and the greens are full of pitch marks, some tee boxes are uneven and could use some love. The ninth hole has become unplayable - tee box is sandy, green is like putting on lumpy shag carpet, and the entire green complex and surrounding area was so soft that approach shots lodged into the mud. This has effectively become an 8-hole course, which for almost $30 (tax included) is no longer a great buy. Sad to see it like this.

The course condition is not that good for price.. Middle portion of course has lost appeal with major real estate development.

Poor Value

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Pace of play was excellent for a public course. My biggest issue was the price point of the course vs the value. The conditions were sub far even for this time of year. Some major issue around cart paths, greens were average, on the slow side but somehow didn’t hold. Looks like that had been punched a few weeks ago so maybe they could be better. Fairways were bad with a lot of dead pan lies. It is a fun course lay out, I just expected higher standards from a $144 course. It definitely has the potential to charge that, but the course conditions don’t meet the price for now.

You can play this level golf course for <$35 anywhere.
