It needs a break. Return in the Spring

We play this course several times a year as its a nice track and generally in good condition. The course though, given it's location, gets a lot of play over the course of a season. This is evident now in September on the greens. They've had enough.

I'm a big fan of the course but my suggestion is to wait until Spring as the greens are beat up. Other courses greens have similar problems right now but these are outside the norm.

First Time Playing

First time

I haven’t played golf in a long time ! I am just getting back into the game! The coarse was nice well maintained! It was difficult but not to the point for a new guy getting back or even a beginning to be intimidated by! Maybe it been. That long but no one or carts to even get a bottle of water! Wich would have helped many times in the heat! But we’ll be prepared next time! Over all I will play again! And for the rate I got with the cart you couldn’t beat the price! 2 of us golfed with a cart and my father-in law rented clubs it was still under 85 $ for 18 with a cart! My favorite part of this coarse is the pace of play ! There a lot of different handicap golfers out there and everyone was patient and polite!

Good challenge for weekend golfer

Many opportunities to score well, but it will punish you if you’re not careful.

Have to take advantage of the easier Par 4s and 3s. Par 5s are straightforward, but long.

Slow Sunday

Course was wonderful but being a beautiful day in November we got what was expected. Slow play. To the point we had 2 groups on the tee for hole 5 and 6 while there was a group on the box in the fairway and on the green. That’s 5 groups on 1 hole. We played 9 and got a rain check. Staff was fantastic in the clubhouse though. I don’t think they have any rangers.

Pitch & Putt At Best

Grantwood is a golf course with perhaps 6 -8 real golf holes and 10 - 12 goofy holes that favor short hitters and those who enjoy pitch and putt. There are way too many holes where a stream and waste area is place where a decent drive would land. There are perhaps 2 holes where there are bunkers in front of the green which allows lower skilled players to run the ball up or steal a par with a good pitch. It is no a players course by any stretch of the imagination. If your a lower handicapper, invest your time and money into Punderson, Boulder Creek, Mannikiki or Stone Water. Your better off skipping this course.

Slow

For a Monday it was really slow. The course was in rather good fall shape.

Nice course, I'll visit again

I enjoyed this course. The course is not exceptionally difficult but very well maintained and a fun course. In terms of play, it has a creek that comes into play in many of the holes, some strategically placed bunkers and a few small ponds. Some of the holes are beautiful to look out at. In terms of walking, it is mostly flat, with only a few hills to climb.

Inside the clubhouse are items to purchase (note it is cover-19 time), no food, a few cheap beers, and a grumpy old guy who doesn't seem to care that you entered the building or that you exist. The other staff seems a bit friendlier. Nonetheless, I like this course, I have played it several times, and look forward to playing it again.

Nice simple course for beginners and the average golfer.

If you are a beginner, this is the course for you! It's long enough to get your strokes in. Fairways are just wide enough for a beginner, yet challenging enough for an average golfer, The greens are not difficult, but just enough to make it interesting, If you are tired of executive 9 hole courses, this is the one for you!

Consistently great

I have played Grantwood a few times a year for the past 8 years and it is consistently well maintained. The greens are good sized so you don’t feel like you’re pitching onto a postage stamp. The course layout is fun with a lot of variations in elevation. Don’t be surprised how long a short par 3 can play and there are multiple holes where you have to club up. This course is a great value for the money.
