Fast greens and slow play

Overall the course was in great condition with fast greens. Only issue was slow play by several groups ahead of our foursome. The clubhouse did send a mrarshall after we called but is was still 5 minutes shy of a 5 hour round.

One of my top 5 favorites

As a long time player (35 years) and fan of Springdale, I have to say that it's in the best shape ever! The new owners (and staff) have done an incredible job of bringing the course back to life. I imagine it won't be long before they start receiving honors for the restoration.

Thank you for preserving this hidden gem of a course!

One of my best golf experiences

If feels like the nearby mountains are right over you on every hole. The greens are the fastest I’ve putted on in a long time. Almost every tee box is picturesque with beautiful homes surrounding the course. Couldn’t suggest playing here enough.

Nice course, nice people and perfect day. Only complaint is we had to start on #10- - back nine is harder, would have been nice to warm up some.

A Pleasant Surprise

Pulling up to the course, I was setting myself up for some disappointment. You can see the front nine and it looks pretty basic. My only thought was, this looks boring!!!

My mind quickly changed once I hit the course. Yes, the front is pretty basic but the back nine is absolutely wonderful. Every hole was a challenge and you had to play within your game.

The carts had gps systems that provided all the detail you needed to make your decisions. They carts were clean, newer and handled very nicely.

The pro shop looked new as well as the restaurant and athletic club. They had a nice area between the lodge and pro shop where kids could enjoy themselves. After all, it is part of a resort.

The staff were all friendly and courteous. I truly enjoyed the experience and would definitely play there again if I travel through the area.

We normally grab a bite after our round however, the food at the turn left us a little more than disappointed and we didn’t want to chance it again.

But then again, it’s about the golf!!!

Gorgeous view course!

Played here for 20 years. My husband says this is a funky golf course because of the layout. I love it because of the views and the creative shots that are needed to play here.

Course is in the best shape I’ve ever seen it, greens are fast and true, and fairways are like carpet. Play her and see what you think.
