Scenic, well designed course
The course is well laid out. The setting is beautiful & interesting. The clubhouse was nice & staff very friendly. I am disabled and drove the cart, while my husband played.
Sweet course but CRAPPY GREENS
Love the course and layout but awful greens! It was like putting on the fairway. Need some major TLC!
Great course, Bad Greens
Have played here many times. Always been a great layout, nice surroundings. Fairways are ok but the greens are the downfall. They need to spend some money and get the greens fixed.

The greens were in very rough condition. I’ve never seen them like that before. Lots of large bare areas where the grass had not grown in. May just be the cooler spring weather.

Great Course
Great course layout. Fairways are in great condition but the greens could use some more attention.
Nice course
Not my first time at this course. It has beautiful scenery but most of the fairways were covered with worm mounds. Also not the courses fault or anything but some of the other golfers there were extremely rude.
Good course but dismal greens
Course was in good shape and a nice challenge but greens were horrible. No grass at all on greens. Need to build temporaries and reseed greens.

Great course. Greens wee super slow and need work but great layout. Incredibly affordable
Fun track...great layout!
First time playing Lake Blackshear and I really liked it. The layout is great with a lots of variety, no two holes were alike. The tee boxes and fairways were in good shape. The greens were good considering winter conditions and lots of rain. I’ve played on better greens, but I’ve also played a lot worse. Medium speed and putted true. They did a good job of placing holes away from poor conditions that existed on a few of the greens. I’d definitely play there again. FYI - we also really enjoyed staying at the resort for a few days. It’s right on the lake with nice views from the rooms. We also enjoyed live music in the lounge on the Friday and Saturday nights that we were there.
great course
great course,but played in challanging conditions. wind blew up to 25 MPH.
Great course, needs maintenance
Like the title says, it’s a great course but it needs maintenance. The layout is good and the staff was very friendly. However the cart paths could use pathing in several areas, the whole course had lots of leaves covering the fairways and even the greens. The rough was also so high in several areas that it was very easy to lose balls even if hit well.
CONDITIONS
SOMEWHAT WET. .GREENS VERY SLOW.. VERY LONG COURSE. BOTH WIFE AND I ENJOYED THE COURSE.
PACE OF PLAY WAS GREAT.
Nice hospitality. Overall course was good. Greens were a little sketchy in places. I’ve seen this place better and I’ve seen it worse.
