Course in great shape from 3 years ago. They have brought the course Back to its old glory. Greens are fast and true from one green to the next. Also price is right senior rates $35 for cart and golf.

This course is in the best condition Ive seen in a decade. The new management really has it fixed up and nice to play again.

I reserved a tee time the night prior to my visit. When I arrived there were 60+ people waiting around for cart pickup - there were no available carts. The tee time 1 hour before me had not even begun their round. Surprising! Wondering what their ranger/management staff was doing? They should have been working to move the pace of play along. I canceled my tee time and left. I will not be returning considering I drove 40 minutes to get there. What a joke.

Played here today and it was a nice course. The blue course was nice and straight. Like that it’s pretty wide open for those miss shots. Could easily find our golf balls in the rough and fairways. Greens were really hard and fast given the amount of rain we have gotten recently. Would play here again.

Golfed 9. Have been there plenty of times. Very clean and kept up. This place has been around forever. Wide fairways. Couple of challenging holes. Sapphire 9th hole kills me. Golfers and staff are really courteous.

Played here a year ago, it was fun n I enjoyed the layout but I heard the owner got a new superintendent and it has really paid dividends. The golf course is in excellent shape, fairways and greens were pristine. We liked it so much we decided to play the emerald course too (the nine hole course) which was in a good shape and had a true links feel to it. Great experience overall. Staff was great and friendly too. I definitely recommend checking this place out.

I drive by a lot and its always up kept immaculately, But this was my familys first time at or in the country club. We had Easter Brunch here. Everything was amazing. The gentleman that greeted us was an older man. He was so friendly and nice, being a dad/grandpa he really understood how to talk to and interact not only with my wife n I but my 3 daughters. He complimented them on their outfits,asked if the bunny came and was all around AWESOME to talk to and pass the time. It took about 15 mins to be seated, but in all fairness we were 15 mins late for our reservation. The Seating overlooked the beautiful golf course and although it was packed, we still managed to get very good seats near the buffet. The food was AMAZING!!! There was a breakfast buffet,pasta,potatoes salad,veggies,chicken,beef,ham,probably a few things I left out as well. But our familys favorite part was the Omelette Station. That chef was banging out some of the most Exotic,Tasty,Whatever kind of meat,cheese,veggie combo you could imagine omelettes... My Daughters n Wife LOVED THEM. I personally LOVED the Beef cooked to medium rare PERFECTION... Now I must say all of this was clearly enough food, BUT OH NO in another separate room were the desserts. Now I personally have NEVER EVER had or let alone seen such fancy,dainty,light yet delicious desserts and there was tables full of them. All in all it was a great lunch at a great place. I highly recommend it to anyone!!

Nice golf course. Pleasant people, course is well maintained, short of cutting down a number of trees that appear dead for some time. Food in the restaurant was good too. The course is long enough and challenging enough so as to be really pretty ideal. Enjoyed the round.

Review №54

Golfed here few years ago, course was going in the wrong direction. I was told the greens have improved as of late, which is good. Reason for my review is because my father golfed there yesterday for $31, a fair price. He got rained out after 4 holes. He was given a rain check for $12. He didn’t golf a full nine, so I don’t understand why he wouldn’t be given a rain check of $15.50?The justification was,“That’s what ‘he’ wants us to do”

Review №55

If this place was not so close to my house and my son did not love hitting golf balls I would not step foot in that dome. If you are not a regular and they do not know you, the staff does not pay any attention to you. They never greet you, never say thank you, and the only words that come out of their mouths are sign here.... The buckets are over priced and yes they give you a punch card for a free bucket but you have to buy 10 buckets to get 1 free. When you get a medium bucket at 11 bucks thats 110 bucks to get one bucket for free. All the drinks are way over priced. They are the only golf course I have been to that wont work with you if you have a group of 12 or more. Very disappointed because it is a nice golf course and its so close to me. Please get better staff or get more training for them. Because I should not feel uncomfortable and unwelcome at a place I spend my hard earned money at.

Staff is very friendly and personable. Fairways and greens pretty much always looking sharp! Avg. cost to play 18 is $35 retail which is a great value for this quality course. Look for a coupon such as GolfNow to save even more! I highly recommend!

The course is going downhill as far as proper maintenance. The greens are not properly maintained. The sand traps are a disaster. The food in the clubhouse is just o.k. The newer 9 hole track is nice. Get a guy in there to supervise maintenance of the course.

I just attended a wedding there and the service was terrible, they never gave us any drinks even tho they were included with the dinner, they brought the dinner rolls out after they served the main dishes, it took over an hour after we were done eating for them to cut the cake, and the staff had really bad attitudes. They would look at you crazy if you asked for more food to your table when it was unlimited plates. And to top it off they wouldnt give the bride and groom any money back for such poor service. Very rude, wouldnt recommend it to anyone. And it smells disgusting in the back room and poker room.

I would normally not be one to give a poor review of anything. I have always been of the opinion that it is too easy nowadays to trash someone or something on the internet. That being said, Green Garden Country Club deserves a lousy review. I have played this course for many years and changes of ownership. I have watched this course deteriorate for several years now, and I will not go back. Weeds, crabgrass everywhere. We have had a very wet summer, yet I had trouble putting a tee in the rock hard ground. The worst is the ponds full of algae because the owners are too cheap to aerate and use algaecide. Disgusting brown scum on the ponds. I golf for the enjoyment, but also to be in nice scenery. Yes, it costs electricity to power pumps for aeration and watering, but that is part of the business. I know the golf business isnt what it used to be, but you are driving away your customer base with these conditions. Shape up, Green Garden!

Review №75

Food was good however the website stated $15.95 per person EVERY Sunday. No Where on the website did it say anything regarding Easter Prices. It said Every Sunday It DID NOT say excluding holidays or anything like it. Needless to say, they more than doubled the price on Easter and we had no idea until we got the bill. The manager said We should have asked when we called. This was the first year we ever went out for Easter so I had no idea. He did remove 1 meal off the bill but it was still over $400 for 10 people to eat. Will never go back or recommend to anyone.

Review №79

Guy at the counter charged me $52 for a box of 24 Mojo balls. I got robbed! Even worse is I never received a receipt so theres not much I can do to resolve this issue. Course itself is nothing special, when we went the grass was still SOAKED in some spots and the greens were a bit chewed up. More than likely will NOT ever be going back here.

Ive heard that it wasnt too long ago that this course was in pristine condition. Perhaps the saddest thing is that it wouldnt take a whole lot to return it to that status. While I am FAR from an avid golfer, I know class when I see it, and this course falls below that benchmark. Weeds were abound in the areas of outbuildings, signage, and other places that a simple weedwacker could remedy. We had an 8:30 tee time on a hot summer day, and there was no beverage cart until after 11:00. While the water at the tee boxes was wet, it was lukewarm at best and didnt do much to quench the thirst. The halfway house had a Closed sign on the the windows, but there was an employee in the building. When asked if there was a beverage cart on the course, she replied that there is one, but it would just be stating now. As I started to walk out, she told me that she had beer if I really wanted one. When I asked about the closed signs, she stated that she was made to open up. Nothing in the way of snacks, so stock up at the clubhouse if you think you may get hungry during your round. For the record, we only saw the cart twice during the remaining nine holes.The fairways were in good condition, and the greens were acceptable. There was a heavy rain the prior night, so the swampy bunkers were to be expected, I guess. It would have been nice if they had been at least raked, though.The staff at the clubhouse was friendly, and the food was good. Im glad that they added the draft towers to the bar, giving patrons better selection for their after round adult beverage.At $30.00 with a cart for a weekday, it was a decent deal and the course was nice to play, especially for an amateur that doesnt know much better. They could definitely charge more with a few minor improvements.

My family and I went the first time for a buffet. This was for fathers day. What was supposed to be a very nice time was horrible. First our plates were never picked up from our table. Next we didnt get a refill on drinks. The food is sub-par, nothing special for the price. Lastly be careful everyone if you have more than 5 people for a BUFFET you will be charged 18% !!!! For what ?? i had to get up and get my own plates!!!! NO REFILLS. Way too over priced! MOST of the food was cold for the buffet. And to charge a gratuity? WE called and complained they said thats they way it is, about the gratuity.
