Great course

This course is definitely a hidden gem. Loved the staff and the course was in great shape! Love supporting hard working people! They have done a great job. Side note the resturant on site is excellent.

Great Course

Overall the course we in great shape. Played it from the tips which is not a long course, however the course plays longer than the yardage. Some very picturesque holes with a mountain stream that runs through most of the holes. I would definitely play again. Unfortunately the restaurant was not open so any post round food or beverage was not available.

Best Course in the area for the money

The condition of the fairways and greens are excellent. Some of the tees could use some work. Overall this is the best value golf I’ve played in a long time.

SPOILER!

First thing the cart did was show me the BMW results, while I had only watched through the 2nd round! People that want to know that, already know, those of us who don't want to know, DON'T WANT TO KNOW!

PLEASE don't let the cart show that!

A good bit of bare earth, too much for the price.

Anyone with a GPS should enter the clubhouse address, I entered the name, it wanted me to turn a quarter mile past where I should have, which moved my attention too far ahead. Then it was sending me down cart paths, and all over the property, missed my warmup routine.

Nice course though, I would play again, but looks like we're moving several hours farther away.

Tricky layout

Played course for my first time.

Loved the views.

The course was wet after several days of rain.

It is definitely a target golf course.

Several blind shots and lots of elevation changes.

Back nine considerably a tougher test.

Thick rough.

Stay in the fairway.

Enjoy the view

Very good experience at Kingwood. The views are spectacular and the value was very good. My wife and I really enjoyed the outing. Drove 3 hours from Augusta and it was worth the drive

Pleasant

Conditions were very good, nice layout, but if you don't like VERY steep slope and course not for you some slopes were very extreme, hole #12 tee shot is totally blind i accidentally hit into a group ahead, suggest putt a bell to ring after hitting a second shot, No restaurant or bar Monday/ Thursday, supposed to be a resort course???.

Great, challenging layout. Bit hard playing first time, a lot of blind shots. If you play smart and pay attention to yardage it’s very manageable. I would love to play it again but I live 8 hours away.

Arrogant Refund Policy

Played with my regular men's group for the first time at this course. We all agreed that it was pricy for the area and day of the week (a Tuesday). Course seemed to be in decent shape but due to an injury I was only able to complete 9 holes. When I went into the clubhouse for a nine-hole credit/rain check, my request was refused by a friendly staffer who told me that it was recent corporate policy to only give rain checks for legitimate weather-related reasons. Having never heard of a course not giving a rain check for medical (or actually, any) reason, I called back the next day to speak with the GM, who was unavailable. I spoke with Doug, who politely informed me that corporate (Reunion in FL) applied that policy to Kingwood in particular and not the courses in FL. Made me wonder if Kingwood was either being prepped for sale or for closure. In my 30+ years of golf, I've never encountered a more "go away" policy, so I'll do just that, at least until they get new owners.

Much better than before

We played first time few years ago and the club was not impressed overall.

However, we played last two days, and the course was much better especially with green.

Vacation

Course was in good condition. Not very crowded. Had a day where we did have to wait on every shot for 13 holes. No Marshall or cart girl on course. They don’t allow anyone to tee off after 4;00.(even for 9 holes) Seems strange to me as it doesn’t get dark until 9:00. Overall had a great experience.

Not worth the green fee charged

Great layout for a 5554 yd golf course. I do not think this course is worth the green fee being charged. There were 4 tee boxes that were dirt and 1 fairway was in poor shape. The staff was not the friendly. Hitting net was in tough shape with holes in the net. I would save your money!!!
