Disappointing for a Saturday.

Course was in great shape from the Mid-Am. Practice facility always in great shape. No bev kart or halfway house open on a beautiful Saturday. If you’re gonna claim to be the tip of the spear and charge $150+ for a round then the spear needs to always be sharp.

Value not there

I have been playing this course for many years. After ownership changes price has continuously gone up to where value isn't there. Local courses during the week are around $50-70 for 18 holes. This short course is well kept but my last visit 2 holes didn't have cups so flag was on ground next to green, never any water! Used to be $15 during week and $25 on Sat-Sun. $40 is just not worth it.

Fast Greens

Greens were fast and the rough was coming up. Course is hosting the state open in a week.

One of my favorite tracks in the area.

PHS Friends

The course was not as green and fluffy as it was last time I played it, but the manicure was great!! Now if they sold a golf game with the tee time it would be even better. Loved the course and loved the people. Thank you for a great experience.

Nice!!

Very nice layout and competitive course for a golfer who has played many courses across the US. Definitely a course I play when I’m back in Richmond area.

Fix the bunkers!

I know it’s rained a lot but several bunkers had completely washed out and collapsed! Several were completely unplayable! Course is challenging and nice otherwise.

I’m not mad, just disappointed.

A couple of things up front: Retail for 18 holes is $140 in the winter time. I saved my golfpass points, used a hot deal, and the SUN25 promo code and played for $36. Also, the area got 2” of rain 48 hours before I played. This was followed with 48 hours of pure sunshine(during the day) and wind. Played on a Monday.

I got what I payed for, which was: a beautiful driving range, fabulous greens, painted fairways, very friendly pro shop staff that did not communicate course conditions or cart rules. Very friendly maintenance staff that alerted my foursome, while on the putting green, that they were gonna open the course to 90 degrees (which was news to the foursome since no one communicated CPO), Closed snack shack at turn (really needed that hot dog), closed purified water station/bathroom house on the back 9, bunkers that had not been given any attention since the rain, and a few bare spots on tees.

Again, I’m not mad. I played for a heck of a deal. Thank you GolfNow. I will be back but probably not until summer.

Independence is always in good conditions

Top-notch staff friendliness, driving range and practice areas are always the best. Courses very open and plays well to all players. Greens are true and fast. Bunkers are in pretty good shape. Some of the tee boxes need a little work.

Perfectly Maintained

The greens, Fairways, and especially the tea boxes were an immaculate condition. Although wide open fairways provide plenty of forgiveness,, strategically placed sand traps, make even the straightest drives a challenge. The greens are well maintained, firm and fast with plenty of undulations to navigate through.
