Overall good course to play
Course was in good shape and fun to play. Just needs a few tweaks to make it great. No ice was available for coolers and they don't allow personnel ones. Need to place divot repair boxes throughout course because every carts sand bottles were empty. Need to consider hiring a beverage cart operator or two because getting a drink from club house bar takes way to long. Overall I would highly recommend playing this course for the scenery and close interactions with the wildlife the venture across the fairway during play
Great course and very peaceful
This course is very peaceful even with people behind you the way it’s laid out you do not feel rushed.
Plenty of traps
Booked round at Pine Lakes, but was switched to Indian Mound because a group of 32 went off just before me. Pine Lakes reviews were better than the other 2, but because of pace of play, I got moved. Played through another single who was walking. Only 2.5 hrs to play. Excellent new carts. Greens were very slow and most all had some crab grass in them. Plenty of well placed sand traps and had sufficient sand. Unraked due to rains from 2 days before. Cart path only. Full service restaurant open until 9pm. Pro shop well stocked.
Decent
It a bad course but it’s obvious it doesn’t get the same amount of attention as Indian mound. Greens were dirty. Biggest issue was that the pin positions were not at the position they were supposed to be in. And different holes were in different pin positions.
Great course and layout
We played after some heavy rain so the grass was really saturated. But beside that the course was in great shape and we really enjoyed playing there. Except for the fact that we had a flight in front of us who consisted of 5 guys. That’s not acceptable.
Pace was exceptionally slow.
Three groups around tee box at a time.
No marshall
Underwhelming
Not a bad layout but not in the best of shape, particularly the bunkers. I understand they are planning to renovate the course starting in the coming months so I suspect that’s the reason. That said it’s not a bad value for the money.
Food fun
Due to rain the soil of course was saturated with water. This made it hard tot play but the sun made it very comfortable after all . Due to a group of five in front of us (this should be prohibited) made it a very long play just till dawn.
Great Layout but Poor Condition
We got a great deal through Golf Now but was
Disappointed in the course condition. Lots of crab Grass and some bare spots.
But the thing that I found utterly amazing was there was NOT a single ball washer or trash can on any hole. One of the grounds crew drove by and I asked him about it and he told me no one had took the time to set them out after Covid!
I will however praise the course layout, as it has the widest fairways I have ever encountered on any golf course in my life!!
I would like to see this course be in better condition as it has so Much Potential!!
