Nice links-style course

This course was in great shape for spring golf, both as to the fairways and the greens. The greens are undulating or slanted, so their speed is a bit slower than average, but they putt true. There are few trees except at the course boundaries, so wind and some amount of undulating terrain are the main defenses for the course right now. In past years they allowed heather to grow as an additional defense. Right now, it's too early to tell if they will continue to do so this year. It slows play. Car paths need some renovation. The carts are a bit old, too. The clubhouse is a large open space with few amenities, and is oddly placed a long distance from the parking lot. Decent practice facilities. Overall, it is good value for the money, especially if you like links-style golf and don't plan on spending time in the clubhouse.

First Time Playing

Blackheath

First time playing here. Staff couldn’t be more friendly, great couple of guys we ran into. Hooked us up with another 2-some, and I think one of them was going for his Tour card because he was very slow. Pace of play wasn’t an issue, “we” were the issue. Course condition was “ok” for April, not worth the $33 price tag. We stopped after 9, wasn’t interested in playing the back. I’d recommend to a friend, but not at that price.

Don’t book unless you want to play 6 hours

Booked a t time for 9:15 for 3 people and we didn’t start on the first hole until after 9:30. Pace of play was extremely slow, waiting for two groups at each t box. Course is beautiful but pace of play ruined the experience for me and my group. I’d rather pay a little more to play at a different course that properly spaces out their t times. **if you do not have time to sit around for 6 hours I would not recommend playing at this course.**
