First time in 21 in KY

First time in KY and was not let down (not by the course at least). Hope I can tune my game up so I can challenge it again soon. Greens were great and can't wait for fairways to come out of dormancy.

Very nice place

Made the hour trip to Hidden Cove and it was well worth it. They have let most of the bunkers go but everything else was in very good shape. Greens rolled true. The staff was very nice and we had a very good time.

Enjoyed the layout

Not for the faint of heart. This is a tough course from a visual perspective. Forced carry from the several of the tees is intimidating. Expected greens to be in better shape(aerated after Labor Day) but not to bad for a municipal course. If you want to challenge your game this is the course, will play again.

Very nice

This is a great course and challenging as well. The layout is difficult and some fairways really tight so not for the below average golfer. Players consistently shooting in the mid-80’s and better will really enjoy this course. Greens were really sandy but there was an aeration alert which was spot on but we went anyway. They do take care of their greens and aeration is part of that so can’t fault them for the timing. Well done Hidden Cove. Great course for a decent price.

Another day in paradise.

Another enjoyable day in Grayson. Started with a great welcome to the clubhouse and continued onto the course. Fairways were excellent and greens were good considering they'd been aerated and topdressed. Some areas off the fairways were a little ragged but should be expected after this summer (not supposed to be playing there anyway). Only true downside was the "sand" bunkers. (Again, not supposed to be playing there). Need to be taken care of or make them into grass bunkers.

Enjoyed the round (not the score) and look forward to hitting the course again before winter. Hopefully can leave my slice at home.

Hidden Cove: Grayson Lake

Fun and challenging layout with 4 sets of tees to accommodate golfers of all levels. As far as course conditions, the tee boxes are good but multiple areas are being reseeded so some tees are closer together than usual. Fairways are absolutely pristine. Greens are adequate size with the typical colored code system to indicate pin position: red-front, white-middle, blue-back. The greens are receptive and roll true at a decent speed. The bunkers are the only major setback regarding course conditions. It appears they have been forced to remove sand from numerous traps to help with operating costs. However, the traps that do have sand are soft and in good shape.

WET

The course was very wet so it was cart path only which made it difficult for my 73 yr old body. That being said, it is a beautiful course. the greens are large and putt true. The fairways were in nice shape and easy to hit from. Some of the tee boxes were in bad shape but, over all, it was awesome. I will play it again when the course is drier.

Beautiful Layout

One of the prettiest courses in Ky. Once the bunkers are rebuilt it will be top notch. Very nice greens and fairways.

Great Day!

The course was beautiful and very fun to play. It was the first time we had played Hidden Cove this year and we were not disappointed. Nice range to warm up on and pace of play was phenomenal.
