Teed off in the 3rd group off on Tuesday. Staff was excellent and accommodating. Played from the blues which is a great test of golf, lots of different strategies you can play out here. Even though the greens on the front 9 had the small aeration holes it didn't affect the roll. They appeared to be watering the hell out of the course so there were a few damp spots but this is an excellent course and I look forward to coming back.

Laurel Hill is in mint condition and it's August! This course plays deep from the blues and challenges every part of your game. The staff was helpful to go out of their way and 34 dollars for weekday twilight is insane.

Terrific layout with well kept fairways, scruffy rough and large undulating true greens. The tee boxes offer different approaches and distances for all abilities. The fairways are wide and only wild shots find trouble. Green fee is worth the course design. If you enjoy a five hour round, you will enjoy this course. Bring a Soduko or crossword book, particularly for wait on the Par 3s.

Played the course last Wednesday and it was absolutely phenomenal and the greens are lighting quick. The best shape I've ever seen the course in. A must play.

Excellent layout with a nice variety of holes. Fairways, greens, and rough were in top shape. Tees were not in great shape, but this did not detract in a meaningful way. A few bunkers look like they had not been raked in about a week. The course caters to the better player as it plays long with high grass around the landing areas and greens of many holes. Somewhat overpriced at $89 in peak time, but worth a trip if you want a test.

Played here Wednesday and it was in tip-top condition. Greens were great, quick and true; fairways firm, full and fast and the rough was minimal and fair, except for "environmental areas" which is just tall gnarly weeds/grass bordering a lot of holes. Sometimes a bit too close making not terribly bad shots un-findable especially number 3, that mess between the right fairway bunkers and the cart path is unnecessary.

Course was in the best shape with firm full fairways. The rough was great and the sand even better. The greens were out of this world!


Double Bogey

I won't be back. If by "upscale" they mean rude staff and poor service then I agree. The cart path rule may be necessary? but for $89 they should at least provide a yardage book. Walking 100 yds with most of my clubs before I can even see my lie became tiresome at about the 3rd hole. They would not take my AMEX so...business outings?!? There is a lack of sufficient yardage markings. On the Marshals...by all means address issues but don't be nasty about it. Nice course in an area that needs one, but never again!

Course is in great shape. Greens are firm and fast. Everything is great about this course except for the ignorant grounds crew. Three idiots wouldn't clear the green when we came up on the par 3 16th. We sat for ten minutes while they just sat there joking around. One even proceeded to drop a ball in the bunker and hit sand shots! Then they went to the fairway on the next hole and sat there again. Our tax dollars are going to these idiots who just laze around instead of working? Upscale rates should equal better service! Get rid of the ignorant grounds staff and the course would be rank as one of the best.


Double Bogey

$89 for weeds in the bunkers and cart path only. What a joke. Good fairways. Great greens. Terrible everything else especially the rough. Who wants to take 3 clubs to your ball 100 yards away every time? My favorite part is the "upscale" nonsense they've pulled on everyone. What exactly is upscale by getting exactly 25 range balls to warm up with?I've heard that cart path only will continue through next year. I won't be back until its done. You can't even remotely consider walking either.

The new clubhouse is open and gorgeous, place reeks of upscale golf layout instead of muni. Amazing, it is still cart path only, and frankly if that is what it takes to keep course in this shape I have no problem keeping that rule indefinitely! Great variety of long holes and hazards.

A great layout and a challenge. Although not as much of a challenge as some of the other courses I play that have lots forced carrys over water. I like the types and variety this course presents. There are some interesting left over structures from the prison including a farm silo Next to the first hole. The course is wide and a decent tee shot will not be punished by going into the woods as it is nice and open. Easily the best course I've played in the area.

Very nice layout. Can't wait for it to grow in and the cart path only rule is lifted. Still no yardage book after a year and a half though.

Course has a nice championship feel the staff does not. I played early morning and two mowers went right over my ball. One even stopped to pick it up and put it in his pocket. Starters had no clue; yet they were friendly. The greens are rock solid which is normal for new courses. With a new staff and membership only players this could be great.
