Jabdilla @the creek
We played here last fall while camping at hard labor state park.we have played here now last three days.i didn’t expect course to be rock hard even in March.there is a beautiful par 3 with waterfalls behind it.does not seem like water is being utilized.don’t see any ball marks on green because they are also rock hard.it’s a nice layout.
The Creek
Love the course but the tee boxes are worn down to the dirt.
Great value
The fairway was soaked as rain in the previous day
Front nine was great course layout
Back nine not as god as lot of short par 4&3
Fairways were awful
Had lots of rain. Fairways were basically mud. Difficult to hit off of. Course is much better in dryer weather.
Good price and good place of play for a Saturday afternoon
Good place of play and good price. Unfortunately the price did reflect some of the shape of the course. Some greens were almost not puttable due to damage as well as very tightly cut fairways so the dormant grass was more like hitting off of the clay.
I say this however the round was enjoyable but do not expect pristine conditions but I think it is accurately priced .
Greens fast, fairways OK
Greens continue to be extremely fast, especially on putts that originate above the hole. Some putts from above the holes never slowed down until they were well beyond the hole. Other than the speed, the greens were in excellent shape for this time of the year.
Fairways have not come in yet, but there is sufficient dormant grass to hit shots without being on hardpan.
Good Course
Greens were in the best shape that I've ever seen them. Fairways were still kind of bare cause things just haven't greened up yet. Other than that it's just a solid golf course.
Really Wet!!
Played after the rain. Purse took a while to drain however the greens still played fast. Layout has always been good. Some holes required shot placement other than that it’s straight away track. Can’t wait until the course greens up.
HLC
Fastest greens around , very true as well. Very challenging course, very good condition for February
Great course for the price
Course is always in good shape. . Pace of play it good .
