Independence Golf Club

We played the course earlier in the year and the fairways were terrible. They have now gone dormant, and there is not much grass on the fairways. Based on how tight the fairways are in November 2013 they will likely be a swampy mess in late winter and early spring. Very surprised they did not allow the fairways to fill in before Winter.

Course was wet and muddy. Bunkers had not been raked. A bit disappointed since normally course is much better.

Considering it was early November and the greens recently aerated,, the course was in great shape. The staff was friendly. The rate of play on a Sunday before a Monday holiday was good. The rate had been reduced since the greens had been recently aerated, so, overall, it was a great experience.

Staff were very friendly and accommodating when one-half of our foursome were late.

I would recommend this course to other golfers that I know who are looking for a great challenge with a spectacular setting on nearly every hole. Only issue I had was my cart all but died on the second to last hole.

Independence is a good track and you can get a pretty good value there, especially in the evenings or during the week. Be cautious about weekend morning rates in season as can be a bit pricey (90bucks or so).

Very enjoyable course to walk and some serious real estate to look at (especially on back 9). 1st three holes are tough, but the the course opens up a bit. Greens generally in good shape, and the practice facility as well as the clubhouse are terrific. Great deal going right now, whatever you shot for the day (say 83) thats what your 1st on draft beer costs in the club house (83 cents).
