Shanty Creek

Dramatic, big hills. Couldn’t be more of a challenging, enjoyable golf experience.

This course is in outstanding shape. Tee boxes, fairways, greens all top notch. The greens are very quick but putt true. Flat front nine and hilly back nine. But the back was still very fair. We were stuck behind some slow players on front but they only played nine. Thank goodness. Played back nine in 1 hour and 45 minutes while playing at a comfortable pace. You should not miss this course at Shady Creek as it is also their cheapest one - other than Summit.

We accepted this round as part of a play and stay. Expecting a top notch golf wxperience, this course provided less than a dozen courses within 20 mikes of my own house. Let’s see, how about a list? The cart paths are a torture ride. The course was baked and dry. The layout takes you through neighborhoods clearly not connected to the Shanty Creek empire. Lots of uncared for turf. This course is acceptable as a local $40/round tab, but not as a play and stay level included in an already overpriced package.

Ever since shanty creek bought this course it has trippled in price, the staff & grounds people who are the best ever are treated horribly by management . Shanty creek has made this course all about just making $$. They could care less about the customers, the concerns from the home owners , staff & grounds crew. Every one is quitting because of this. "Steve" wants everything his way & only his way. Many home owners on all the 4 courses who are a main source of advertising for the courses & bring customers in have concerns about changes that make no sense & he doesn't care. Many more bad reviews for these courses are going to occur. There are so many other courses around the area that are as beautiful & costs are much cheaper. Just saying. We've lived here & been a member since 2007. We really miss the guy who ran this place before. He would be really disappointed of what this course has become & what shanty creek has done to the moral here.

Starter will ruin your day right from the start. The guy is a grumpy jerk. Definitely not the guy for the job

Have played here multiple times and always thought ti to be the jewel of the Shanty/Schuss collection of courses, but found the course conditions to be just average. The tee boxes were in need of some attention.

It was still an enjoyable round and course.

Fairways and greens were fine but like one of its sister courses, the tee boxes were in need of some TLC.

Played here multiple times before the course was acquired by Shanty / Schuss - we played 36 this day.

Fair but fun, the 17th par 5 is a real challenge.

Greens and fairways were great but the tee boxes were a bit overgrown and in need of some TLC.

Restaurant staff and beverage cart personnel were dealing with an out of service ice machine and had to wait on ice from the other courses created a bit of an issue with some players. Things like that can't be foreseen.

Played here twice this past weekend after a 3 year hiatus.The white/silver tees on Friday (several of the players were over 65) and the white tees on Sunday (5 team 4-person scramble).

Overall the course was in fine shape, the green speed was average. The entire resort went cashless last year which was one small hurdle to address. The resort does offer reverse ATM machines in which can feed cash for a prepaid debit card you can use throughout the resort.

The beverage cart sightings were few and far between though. Other than that, no issues. We will be back.

Keep wide on all the dog legs so that you've got a shot at the green on your second shot.

Don’t bother with this course. Poor layout and conditions. Large dry patches.Too many nice courses in the area to play a neighborhood style course. Very disappointed

Course layout and condition was great. Tee boxes, fairway and greens well maintained. Clubhouse staff, and round starter were very congenial and cordial. Round started right on time.

Two issues with the round this day, the first being that the weather was quite warm mid- afternoon. Not being permitted to provide our own fluids on the course my group was contacted once by the beverage cart on the second hole. This didn't set well and on an above temperature day and dehydration began to set in during in the round.

Pace of play was also a bit slow ending the round @1/2 hour after the posted scheduled timeframe.

5 hr round. No Marshal to move the 4-some along that were causing the backup. At least 2 open holes in front of them.
