Cotton Creek at The Craft Farms Resort

THE COURSE WAS IN GREAT SHAPE AND FUN TO PLAY.
WE HAD A GOOD TIME AND CANT WAIT TO SEE THE CLUBHOUSE ONCE RENNOVATIONS ARE COMPLETE. THE ONLY MAJOR COMPLAINT IS THAT THEY ALLOW MEMBER FOURSOMES TO PLAY WITH 4 CARTS IN THE GROUP. WE HAD TWO GROUPS CONTINOUSLY RIDE OUR BUTTS UNTIL WE HAD TO LET THEM PLAY THROUGH. THATS WAS PRETTY CHICKEN ---- OF THE MEMBERS!!

Where’s the grass? I live off Cypress Bend and it seems like the maintenance crew people are perpetually cutting the fairways. Why? And if they must be kept busy, at least raise the height of the mowers 1 level.

We have had multiple friends from out of town visit. They all loved the beauty of the course and the extremely friendly staff. But they all said the same thing I’m saying - WHERE’s THE GRASS?

The course was immaculate. Clubhouse was under repair but temporary clubhouse and staff working well.

I love playing Cotton Creek golf course, it's fun and challenging. The greens were aerated, but I still like the fact that I don't have to follow a slow play people. Slow play kills my game.
The staff were awesome especially the bag boy, named, Mark Relich he makes you feel VIP. I also like the fact that the bathroom on the course have air conditioned, and clean.

Course was in good shape overall. Our biggest complaint was the fact we had two mowers following us on 7 consecutive holes. They did not care that we payed close to $100 to play the course. They would not stop cutting while we were hitting our tee shots and there was multiple times I had both lawnmowers sitting beside me while hitting an approach shop. They were also cutting up by the greens while we were putting. We talked with a player assistance employee out on the course and he agreed that they should not have been cutting while we were playing. He even suggested that the clubhouse should give us a rain check for it. We talked with a staff member in the clubhouse and they just acted like it was no big deal. I really enjoyed the course but I’m not sure we will play this course again.

We were in town for Vacation and played 18 holes. It had rained pretty hard earlier in the day so the course was very wet. It was a moderate difficulty plays well, I will absolutely golf there again.
What stuck out to me the most about the course was the friendliness of the staff. I have golfed in several states, but the staff here just has Customer service mastered. I want to give a special Thank you to Paola in the pro shop, she was fantastic, great humor, knowledgeable, and just made us feel very welcome. Thank you Paola for everything. I can't remember the other person's name in the club house tending bar, but she was just as welcoming and Friendly! Thank you for a great Visit! We will be back.

I teed off at 0720 and finished at 1030...doesn't get much better than that and didn't feel rushed. Granted, it was a twosome, but no one pushed us and we never pushed anyone in front. Very friendly staff and unfortunately, it was during covid and wasn't able to enjoy ALL of the amenities, but the practice facilities were available and the staff was very accommodating and safe.

The course was in pretty good shape overall. The cart paths were a little bumpy with overgrown tree roots. The fairways and greens see quite a bit of play so divots and ball marks are to be expected. The staff is superb. It really is a private club, VIP type experience. They greet you at your car with a cart, unload your bag, help you get checked in, unlimited range balls are included as well as use of the ample practice facilities. I played twice this week and both rounds were less than 4 hours, however I went out early, 8:15am the first day and 7:15am the second. Bring your iron and putting game, the course features some big doglegs and a lot of water. My only issue about course condition was the sand in every bunker was different. Some were red clay type sand, others white fluffy beach sand, and others, like kinetic sand. I am not sure if that’s on purpose but I’d not seen that before. Overall the experience was great. It is on the higher end side but you don’t get too many hackers willing to pay $100+ per round, so that alone weeds out the twice yearly golfer, improving the pace of play by upwards of 30-45 minutes.

For $111 I would have expected a more in shape and better overall course. With it being the middle of May I would have hoped for plush and lush grass everywhere, but unfortunately Craft Farms was not that. The golf carts are old and need to be replaced. The cart paths are full of cracks, bumps, and unevenness. This course should only be charging $60-$70 on the weekend. Somewhat disappointed in my experience.

Course had a few issues, but it's still spring. Sure they'll be fixed by summer. If not, we'll just buy more beverages from Hayley (thank you), Tomi, and the rest who were driving the beverage carts around. See you all soon.

This place is a gem. Started off with the staff. We traveled from the north to this course, where Kevin and his staff were unpacking our golf boxes. A member of the team then delivered our boxes to the hotel we were staying at. The course was in great condition, greens were tremendous. Course was wet from the amount of rain the prior day so we had Carr path only. The staff in the restaurant/bar were very welcoming and helpful. I have never seen such great hospitality from a business from top to bottom. The southern charm was very comforting

Staff was friendly and cooperative. Course had a good mix of challenging holes and easier holes. Tee boxes were a little rough but that’s my only course complaint.
