tough trek

although yardage looks short, it is a Par 70 with Long challenging par 4's. Mid range golfers don't be embarrassed to play the whites as many are over 400 yards. Toughest from the Blue's was 450 yard par 4 which second shot had to carry water 410.

Not for Big Drives

Course was in excellent condition. It was a little wet so cart path only and not much roll. I used my driver maybe4-5 times. If you hit your drive 250+, be prepared to use a lot of 5 and 3 woods off the tee.

I played by myself. Was first tee time. Played 3 balls a hole and finished under 4 hours. Would have been quicker if it wasn't cart path only.

Sad

Not on par with other $60 courses I’ve played in the area. Fairway cut long rough cut real long greens spotty and very inconsistent some fast some slow conditions making it rough playing on a very good weather day. I’ll not play again

Great course

This a great course in great condition. Everyone was nice until I found out I was playing in a threesome that I did not know. I asked for a separate cart to be distanced and found I had to pay $20 more. Well I played the Maples course last week in a threesome and I was given a cart of my own. Make up your rules as you go. Sounds like nascar.

Fun round, tough course

Course in good shape. My only complaint is the rough is too high. I should not have to walk over directly over my ball to find it. But I did play on a Tuesday. Overall, good round on a pretty tight course. Would play again.

Terrible customer service. Poor communication. Staff and website was not truthful about the course, the greens and the condition of the course

Stay away.from this course Very disappointing course to play

Poorly run facility

Pace of play is 6 hrs or more on a weekday

Facilities and courses are going downhill

One of the worst values for golf I’ve ever had

Off-roading

Course is good. Cart paths are an absolute disaster on Byrd. Avoid this course for that fact alone.

GOLF NOW NEEDS TO PAY ME MY MONEY BACK

I reserved a tee time @ this course...unfortunately when I got to course they said it was closed due to how wet it was. So i drove home...I went to golfnow app and tried to get a refund and they said sorry your tee time has already passed. I know the cancellation policy is in effect if the course is closed which it was! Golf now has no customer service reps working....need help getting my money back ASAP!

Good solid choice

Good layout. Greens were slow, probably due to a long knap of the grass on them. The approaches were soggy, b/c of watering the greens in midday. (It was late June). This caused my approach shots to crater, rather than bounce onto the green. Vastly reduced services and amenities due to Coronavirus scare, but the course conditions were good. Nice course worth playing.

Great Course for Vacation Golfers

Really enjoyed our round of golf at this course. Just the right level of challenge for weekenders or vacation golfers. Greens were in great shape.

Two minor critiques: more drinking water along the course would be good. Especially on hot days. And the cart path is in pretty rough shape throughout the course.

Ok, not great!

The course lay out was not bad, but the course needed to be mowed bad. It was not in very good shape and definitely not worth the price.
