Decent
Two courses in one, traditional front nine, links type back nine. Not very difficult to play.
Two totally different courses.
Loved the back longer and more opened. Two totally different 9s. I like to grip it and rip it. I am not a shot maker. Which is why I would prefer the back over the front. You could play the front nice twice and the back nine twice . Play two totally different 18 hole courses on the same track. Haven't seen to many like this that vary this drastically. I enjoyed it. Would probably enjoy the front more if I knew the lay out. Would be nice if they offered a yardage book or some kind of map for the holes. Even on the back it could get a little strange on direction to the next hole.
Excellent
Course in great condition today, nice plush green fairways and greens as well after getting aeriated last week! By far better than other courses around!
Great course
Course was in great shape! Had a great staff new carts good pro shop. We will return. !
Brazell Creek
Awesome course! Needs a pond on the back 9. Whenever it’s wet, it’s super wet on the front 9. The differences between the front 9 with the narrow fairways and the pine trees and the wide open play on the back 9 makes it feel like two completely different courses.
Pitiful
This is my 2nd time driving over 40 miles one way just to find out the back 9, the links part was closed. Play was incredibly slow and then to make it worse, on the 2nd time on front 9 at least 70 or 80 teenagers just started cutting in front of everyone on the course and causing even more slow play. We finally just quit. We were able to get raincheck because of the issues for 9 holes but not sure I'll even go back.
Course in good shape
Greens are in excellent shape. Well mowed and fitted. Fairway grass is dormant, so lies can be a little thin and on the dirt. It’s winter conditions but overall, course is in great shape and a good value. Only problem is the distance to drive to get there. It took us close to 90 minutes each way. Worth it for a hot deal but not for full rates.
You get what you pay for...
Just like it says...$25.00 will get you a person behind the counter that could care less if you are there or not. Never bothered to put out hohotdogs or offer to put some out. Greens are horrible... good luck on seeing the hole layout on the back nine. Won't be back.
Great course
Pace of plat was great once the tournament was over. We played as a twosome and played under 3 hours.
Wonderful course layout
I always enjoy this course. However, I noticed a few of the tee greens need some attention. And on the back nine- could use some better directional signs and an outline showing the fairways. Otherwise, the course is great and always friendly staff. I highly recommend the course.
Great layout
Basically two different courses from front to back but greens are always great. Nice layout. Will test you as a golfer but fun course. Will be back!
Nice layout
I've played this course maybe 6 times over the last 12 years , the reason I don't play it more as it's a 200 mile round trip for us & I have to convince my playing partners it's in good shape & worth the drive, it's never as good as it was the 1st & 2nd time I played it. I called the pro shop yesterday morning & explained to the lady we had a long trip & asked the corse conditions & was told it's playing really good. When we teed of we found the front 9 was 90 degrees as it was wet & all 18 greens looked like they were airiated last week & the greens were slow & everything hopped when you putted. I also checked golf advisor & it said the were punched in June? I'm a member of 2 courses within 20 miles of me but chose to drive 200 miles round trip all because of the pro shop & a review which is incorrect. Other than course conditions I like this course, I just would like to play it in good shape.
Hidden Gem
Greens were in excellent shape. Sand traps were compacted. Lots of doglegs and since it was my first time playing this course found myself driving thru doglegs more than I would have preferred. Back nine is links style. Wide open with lots of risk/reward holes. A couple drivable par fours. Overall, I enjoyed the course. Total time for round was 3hrs 20 minutes.
Best course I've ever played.
I love this course. It's very challenging and it's two different courses in one. They know me by name here and it's awesome.
