Play is fast and usually under 4 hours. This course is an absolute bargain at around $50. It's very well maintained and the rough is not too bad, even if you are off by 10 yards.

It is totally worth the drive from the cities.

The clubhouse is nothing to write home about, it's a small town/country experience through and through but the staff are friendly and very helpful. They do offer snacks and drinks for sale and prices aren't bad. The courses are kept in great condition and the surrounding landscape is farmland and peaceful. If you're lucky you might see a turkey or two while golfing. The holes themselves are nothing too crazy and for a beginner golfer I appreciate that. It allows me to work on my skill set and feel a little bit more confident about my game. Worth the drive into the country to find this little gem.

I would consider this course a confidence builder. The front nine is rather flat and open. Not a…read morelot of challenges and very walkable. The back nine was more wooded, hillier and with much narrower fairways. Distance between greens and next tees were longer so harder to walk. The grounds were a bit rough. The back nine was shadier and in better shape. Green fees are on the lower end but you get what you pay for. It's easy to get on and we played 18 holes in a bit more than 3 hours.

We really enjoy this golf course and we like to take friends here to impress on the back 9. The front is more of your traditional lynx course, pretty flat with some occasional bunkers. If you don't shoot well on the front then you might have a bad round coming your way. This place makes its money on the back 9 and for good reason. Hole 13 is probably one of the best holes in the state, the elevation off the tee box and picturesque views are pretty amazing. The greens and fairways have always been in great shape and we have never had a problem with slow play, although we do try to play on weekdays. It would be nice if the club house had a little more to offer, it is extremely small and only has chips and drinks last time I was there. From what I understand this course is fairly new, last 5 years or so and hopefully they will upgrade the little building in the future. Altogether i would say this is definitely worth a visit from the Metro and other parts of the state, especially for the price. After I visit this year I might bump my rating to 5 stars. *Make sure to check the Special Deals on their website before you go, you can at least score a free cart, you will want it! http://www.summitgolfclub.com/

I like be that I can get on early walk the course and not feel pressured to speed up so as not to slow down others. This is a great course for the casual as well as the new golfer.

The I do score my actual game but nice to hit another just to correct the oops. Owners are super helpful it's very relaxed. Others on the course are courteous and friendly.
