Wet, but playable

They had rain the night before, and some areas of the course were soggy. Had one ball plug in the fairway. Greens were a little slow.

Solid Course

Overall the course was very nice. Fairways were in great shape considering it was very very wet from the rain the night prior. Really good course, I enjoyed my round.

Balmoral Woods Golf Course

Balmoral Woods is a great golf course to challenge yourself. The fairways are tight and some greens play uphill and some play downhill. My only comment is that the women tea boxes need to be repaired and treat it because they were in terrible condition.

George our day, great course, excellent value!

Primo-quality weather was the backdrop for a great day at Balmoral Woods. Pace was quick with well-spaces groups. Course has a great layout, especially noteworthy are #7 downhill left dogleg par 5, #12 similarly configured par 5, #13 long par 3 over the deep valley/creek, and #16 short par 3 over a pond. All-in-all, it’s a great layout with a great variety. Recommendations for the course management: 1) cart paths are becoming nearly unserviceable in spots - they need fixing; 2) more than a couple greens show considerable stress and need help. Overall though, the course is green and well manicured.

Well-located halfway house accessible from the #8 and #13 greens. Nice hot dogs and good selection of beverages.
