Amazing Course

I played because I was in the area for work and chose a random course. It was challenging with very fun holes and changes in elevation. The bunkers were in good condition, the greens had recently been punched but were in much better condition than usual punched greens. The staff was friendly, the pro shop was beautiful, and their driving range, putting green, and chipping green were amazing. Pace of play was also perfect. I played with some course locals and they were very nice and fun to play with. Overall amazing value for the money.

First time

First time playing here. We had some early morning drizzle so conditions were not ideal, it ended up clearing up and was better. Course was in decent shape given the time of year. Will play here again.

Even with a frost delay and being December it is hard to find something to complain about. Delay was handled well. Course in great shape

Bargain round

Pace of play was a bit slow (4 1/2 hrs) but they let us out early. We did not see a ranger until hole 9. Got a good discount online for 18 and cart. ($46) course was lush and greens were true.

Spring Conditions - Greens need TLC

1st round at Tallwood this year. Pace of play was very good @ 4hrs. Conditions form tee to green were good, rough was typical for tallwood sparse in some spots & lush in others. Fairways were uniformly very good. Greens need TLC, they hadn't been cut on a monday so were a bit slow. They've recently had a procedure that leaves lines in the green making them bumpy & difficult to hold the line as putts lost speed. Give it a few weeks...

Not too bad

Lots of course maintenance so had to wait quite often. Greens are a bit bumpy, most likely due to end of season aeration. Will give it another go next season. Nice course layout.

Cold weather
Used cart

Under Staffed = Poorly Managed and Don't Care

I was part of a foursome that had an 11;55 tee time Only 20 cars in the lot when we arrived. We went off 10 minutes early because the cold limited play. We played nine holes and could not tee off the back because there were 3 foursomes in front of us, that we did not see on the front. Also, by this time, 2:30 pm (sunset at 4:30) there were 50 cars in the lot. There was no ranger to monitor golfers. We went inside to complain and the guys in the pro shop said, 'we are short staffed. Did you ask who told them they could tee off?' I told him be short staffed was a conscious decision by the owner and that I am not a range or going to be put in this position. The kid was rude and tried to make it MY FAULT.That I should somehow fix it. Never did he apologize, ask how he could make it better OR go the 10th hole to fix it. He walked away. Clearly, Tallwood has 'open tees' after 2:30 or 3:00 and they don't care about those who pay. I left my number to get a call from the manager. I bet either I don't get a call or he'll try to turn it around on me. Tallwood is a nice course, but the new management is horrible.

Enjoyable to play

I would like to play in season , the greens had been punched maybe 3 weeks ago it seemed and the putting was a bit tough of holes but the course itself has everything for a course the back played tougher and most water was on the back , the people that work here are really nice people and enjoy & welcome new people.

We are looking forward to my next trip to he area.
