Great course slow golfers

I had a good time playing the course. Everything was great. The only problem was that the group in front of us was really slow. We were trying our best to keep pace, but everyone was struggling. But at the end of the day, I paid $32 with a last-second hot deal to play 18 holes and had nowhere to be. So still a good day.

Cart died on hole 13

Our cart died on the 13th hole, we had to walk back with our stuff and did not get to finish playing. They also need to add pace of play timers on the carts. Had a few old guys holding up 7 groups deep causing extreme slow play.

Disappointed

I was really looking forward to playing here but the tee boxes were in horrible shape. From the looks of the boxes way over played. Greens in alright shape.

Everything was outstanding

After having played this course for many years, it was in the best overall condition ever. The only downside (as usual) was the long car ride getting there. Treat yourself to a wonderful round of golf at Hard Labor Creek.

100 degrees but still a great day

Probably not the best day to play but course was in great condition despite the hot weather. Very challenging, especially the first couple holes on the back first time playing the course. Greens were in great shape and staff was super friendly. Will play again.

Good

Nice state park course. Lots of kids out on the course, not wearing shoes, hitting multiple balls. I’m not one for a lot of foolishness on the golf course. If you want to golf in peace, this isn’t it.

Golf course layout is fun, some quirky holes, greens decent, tee boxes less than stellar, fairways good. Good price for what you get.

The course is in great shape! They are redoing some tee boxes, but it doesn’t drastically change the course. We will absolutely play this course again.

Great Value

Course layout and ground conditions were very good. Probably the best municipal course I have played this year. Fairway and greens were well taken care of, staff were attentive and the nature surroundings were very serene and relaxing. Pace of play was slow for a single player, but the two groups in front of me invited me to play ahead and the third was a threesome, I ended up joining them and had a great time. Pace was perfect for a foursome. I drove an hour to play here, and I would say it was worth the drive.
