I'm not as much of a golfer than I am a good wife, so I find myself at random golf courses about once a year. Kentucky has gorgeous golf courses and this one is no exception. I love the fact that you can book directly from the Yelp app, that automatically gets a star from me. I have to admit though, my husband booked from a different site and when we got there I noticed that we can go through here... for less $$!
Our tee time was 8:15. No, I don't like waking up that early on a Saturday morning, but remember... I mentioned that I'm a good wife. When we arrived, the manager/owner or whoever he was, came out and talked to me and was very nice. Like at most other courses, we started out with a Gatorade and a candy bar. They have random ice cold water coolers throughout the course too, which I thought was a very nice touch.
There were at least three holes that had to be played over ponds. So if you like that challenge, you will love this course. Let's just say that we lost a lot of balls. Some of the balls ended up in the woody areas surrounding the course, which I thought was a bit too close to be so brushy this early in the year... it's not even summer. Another oddity is the busy roads that surround some holes. That's where the brush and woods should be, to guard the windshields. It started to get very busy on the course. Most people were in groups, so they let us go ahead, there's a lot to golfing etiquette.
If you're afraid of bridges, stay away. There was a very scary one that you have to cross that can use a lot of work. Overall it's a nice, older, inexpensive course that can use some changes or updates. Until then, we will settle for the low cost. read more
