Hidden Gem
I play this course 3 or 4 times a year and it is always very good. The golfnow rate of $13 was an added bonus. The course was in great condition although the greens had a lot of poa annua.
Great day at Arrowhead Pt
The course was in excellent condition, and the weather was perfect. This course is a hidden gem.
Well worth the Drive
I only wish this course was closer to me. This is an absolutely beautiful course nestled in and around Lake Russell. Greens were a little slower than I'm used to but very consistent. This thing will be amazing when the fairways start greening up. Great Value even if I had paid twice or three times what I paid.
January Outing with Friends
It’s been years since I had played here. The course is layed out beautifully on Lake Russell. Course conditions were as I remembered.....excellent....fairways are in great condition and the greens are as good as any course I play.....great value for the money.
Great Golf Course
Have played Arrowhead maybe 15 times and it’s always in great shape ! ! Staff has always been helpful. This golf course is a hidden gem with a beautiful layout. If you a golfer, enjoy beautiful landscapes, enjoy a challenge, play Arrowhead.
You got to play this course.
I love playing this course. This is my forth time in 4 years and each time has been great. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They course is challenging and well kept. I wish I loved closer so I could play it more often.
Beautiful but overbooked
If you have 6+ hours to play 18 holes then this is the course for you. Due to rain the day before every hole was golf cart path only which added some extra walking time but then we sat and waited a lot due to what appeared to be an over booking issue. Long round and over an hour drive from home made for a very long day.
Road trip
First time playing at Arrowhead Pointe at Lake Richard B. Russell. Beautiful state park and the golf course was excellent. Course was in good shape and it was not too crowded. Enjoyed the layout of the holes, especially those along the lake. Views were incredible! Undulating, challenging greens and the bunkers were in good shape as well. Very scenic, enjoyable golf course. Worth the drive
The course is in perfect condition
The only problem is where it is. Not close to anything. But it is worth the drive
Picturesque setting
Challenging course in the state park so no cars or houses which I love. Course is in great shape. Bunkers not the best but they were consistent. It’s a bit of a drive for me but the experience is wonderful and even if you are having a bad day golfing, the setting is so peaceful and scenic that you will enjoy yourself.
my favorite
the most peaceful and beautiful course around, we did have to let a single and 2 -twosomes through our foursome. but the course is a challenging and a good layout.
Beautiful course!
We drove about 150 miles to play this corse and we camped at Richard B Russell State Park campground. Played the course twice and never got tired of the views. The course layout is great with some of the best lake views anywhere. The greens and fairways are in perfect condition. The greens have two or three levels, definitely the hardest I have ever played. So many three putts!!!
My wife drove the cart even though she does not play, she just wanted to enjoy the views.
You should play this course.
Great course,great conditions except for the debris from the storm the day before.I am sure everything will be back to tip top next week when the crew has time to clean up,but otherwise great conditions.
Nice course
I like very much play this course
I play this course 5 times
I drive 2 hours but I enjoy very much
