Solid course

I had an amazing time at saddle Creek. The fairways were nice. The greens were kept. The only complaint I really have is that the fringes around the green were a bit spotty but from the looks of it there actively working on putting new grass around the fringes. I will be back to play again.

dzman129,

Thank you for playing Saddle Creek Golf Club and providing us with valuable feedback. We will always strive to do our best in the operations and maintenance of the course. We will be finishing the re-sod of the bad collars today. The winter weather took its toll on them.

Well laid out, good value

I really enjoy this course, well maintained and nice lay out. Short Par 3s. And overall shorter side at 6300 from whites and 6700 from the blues. Both #9 and 18 and very nice as they approach the clubhouse. Restaurant has some good choices, but not open everyday.

Hot weather
Used cart

manage play is important

Had high hopes for this track but when there were no tees at the short distance.....Very disappointing.....Loads of singles that hit into everyone we had 3 different ones behind us...........hello manage the tee sheet......the quality doesn't match the price.......the bar for quality is high @ $60........might just as well have played The RTJ trail for less.........

LIV54GolfReviews,

Looks like you have Augusta expectations with every course you step on with a 3.5 average star rating you give to the 64 courses you've reviewed.

We have tees at every location on our scorecard. Our green tee is marked by green saddles on the cart path because they're very far forward. We allow singles to play on our course and some times the sheet is open for them to go alone. We pair them up when possible and many times after they're out of our site they break up. We are very aware of how to run a golf course and make the majority happy, we're sorry you choose to be in the minority.
