Worth the Ride

My wife and I recently moved to Anderson SC and found Arrowhead Point on TeeOff. It was described as as having fast greens and to be a shot makers course…our favorite kind of golf. What the reviewers did not mention was how beautiful the lake vistas would be and skill with which the architect routed the course up and back on the name sake point of land. Course conditions are excellent and pace of play reasonable at 4hrs. Apre Golf is non existent as is bag service…DIY, but if you want to play a great golf course this the place and worth the ride.

Nobody working

One pro shop employee was there when we arrived. They had a DNR agent turning people away at the clubhouse when we were making the turn. No food or drinks or anything from the pro shop.

Good shape

Course was in good shape and played difficult due to high winds, especially on back nine, but it was fun as a result!

Course is great!

One of the best values on Golf Now. Great layout and great conditions. The greens are consistent and roll true. The fairways are generous, but challenging. It is in the middle of nowhere and very picturesque.
