Crystal Springs Golf Course

Had a really nice time at this course while traveling for work. Staff was super friendly, starter got me off early, and Bobby the assistant pro was incredibly helpful despite being busy with a packed course. They even have someone pick you up in a golf cart from your car. Definitely a good place to check out.

I had an overall pretty terrible overall experience today: - first, pushcart that always steered to the right - punched greens and tees without prior disclosure - extremely slow pace of play without any enforcement, but a starter rushing groups, even encouraging to hit when others are still in conceivable hitting range - rude group behind me accusing me of jumping them besides them having a much later tee time than me - rough that made balls unplayable or unfindable when only slightly off the fairway

Played here on a weekday in early April 2024, unfortunately just two days after the greens were aerated. There’s a range with very reasonably priced balls, and there were plenty of tee times available throughout into the afternoon. Plenty of wildlife roam the course- mostly turkeys and herds of deer. Friendly staff in the pro shop.

Bad conditions. Expected the course to be wet because of rain over the weekend so we called the pro shop the morning of to check on the conditions. They said the course was fine to play on, yet half the greens, all of the bunkers, and most fairways had standing water / thick mud. Course should have been closed. We were charged full price, which is very disappointing. This is the 2nd time this has happened. None other courses in the area have had such bad conditions with this amount of rain.

Extremely muddy fairways & rough even after 5 days without rain. Some greens were leaving footprints. Surprised they even have the course open. Left after 9 holes - Terrible experience

Edit (3/1/24): The course reached out and offered concession for the round. Changing the rating to 3*. Will update again when I go back to play in the summer. Original review: Terrible condition. Mud everywhere. Fairway grass as tall as rough. 2 greens closed on hole 2 and 3, and hole 9 is shortened to a par 3. Flooded bunkers on the front 9 and one hole on the back 9 has literally half the playing area turned into a large pond. The condition is understandable given the recent storms, but its mind boggling that they continue to charge full price of $95 a round for this. After the round, I complained to the staff at the pro shop, who was understanding, but was not able to offer any concession. They also mentioned that its been this condition for months. I would stay away until conditions have improved.

Gorgeous setting and layout but course in absolutely horrible condition. It's a swamp and still full price. Make sure you call first. If it's cart path only, save your money and come back in there spring.

Do not play here after it rains, you will lose your ball in the fairway - it is that muddy. Range machine is often out of golf balls, or is broken entirely, and all golf balls are in bad condition with mud covering them, or dimple-less. Range mats have seen better days, and all of this is for expensive prices on the range ($21 for a large bucket of 140 balls!)
