Ken McDonald Golf Course 3.7 5 26 26
Nice course Staff was nice. Course well-maintained and clean. Very flat. Had moderate amount of sand and water. Neither a short executive course nor a long, difficult course if played correctly. Good pace of play. Great price for 18-holes ($20) with riding cart. I'd recommend and would go again. April 4, 2013
Beautiful course Just the right amount of water hazards and sand traps. Very picturesque, with lots of mature trees. Liked that the roughs were grass, I'm in them a lot. Overall an enjoyable experience. April 4, 2013
Good condition, a little on the tight side Good value, watch for players on other holes as course is Very tightly bunched. Staff were very friendly. Fun course to play. March 14, 2013
Course in great shape! We booked this course based on reviews saying the greens were in great shape, which is correct. The entire course was in great shape. Great muni course! February 25, 2013
Nicest Greens we have seen so far. The staff were very nice in the pro shop and coffee shop. Time to tee off was right on schedule, the fairways and greens were in great shape. The rough was rough but that ok. Lucky for us we were riding carts but from the 9th green to the 10 tee box its a long walk, as is from the 16th green to the 17th tee box. February 6, 2013
This course was in very nice shape, since it gets a lot of play because of it being a municiple course. You can tell a lot of work is being put into the course. The sandtraps actually had sand in them. The greens and fairways were in great shape. The pace of play was a little slower than what I would like to have seen. February 6, 2013
Good bang for the buck ! Very accomodating staff. Good course for a great price. February 4, 2013
I like the change of order of hole play Over all course is in good shape with a few bad spots in fairways. The greens are in very good shape. Counter person and cart person were professional and friendly. Good experience. January 25, 2013
Great value. Great course for price ($25 from Golf Now). Well maintained - greens good. Pace of play was very slow...5 hrs! January 23, 2013
This course is well maintained and fun to play. The sand bunkers are well raked. I practiced several times in getting out of them! The fairways and greens are well taken care of and the roughs allow errant shots to be reasonably played. Water comes into play on some interesting holes. You will enjoy playing this course. January 22, 2013
The course was ok but they over booked it. Fareways are very forgiving. I didn't know that Martin Luther King Day was going to be so busy and I think the course was way over booked, on the first par 3 we were five deep and waited about 20 minutes to tee off. it was that way on every tee, alot of golfers had had enough after nine and so the back nine wasn't so bad. We had to call the club house to complain and they finally sent out a marshall to try to keep things going. Over all not a bad course but the back nine are the best holes. January 22, 2013
great introduction course I brought two(2) newbies to the game and we ALL had a great time.. i never played the course but will come back again..ruff was dorment but fairways and green in good shape .. my friends were not the only newbies out judging by dress code(lack off) but pace of play was very good.. Definitly come again as my friends had a great time. January 20, 2013
Well Maintained The course is well maintained, has a great layout, widw fairways not lined with homes. Great practice facility. January 20, 2013
NEW YEARS GOLF DAY 2013 If you like long driving courses with wide fairways, you should PLAY this course. PAR 72, I shot bogey golf and had a great day. Greens were in great shape and some what fast. Lotta sand to miss but not hard pan sand ( little fluff ), and yes Water and Trees, but easy to miss. January 2, 2013
good course for the money good shape, good value, good service, enjoyed the experience. will paly ther again. November 29, 2012
great value for price Course was in great shape and had a number of unique holes. Loved the big trees and parkland feel. November 12, 2012
parking are bad,too far from the club house course due for seeding,have to wait until they finishoverseeding November 2, 2012
Nice course - NOT as walker friendly anymore Played right after over-seeding (Cart Path Only), so I decided to walk. Course was in fantastic shape. They re-configured the course since I last played. The back nine is now the front and 10 is the old #3 hole. This leaves a very long walk between 9 and 10 and 6 and 17. In my opinion, they are no longer considered walker friendly (Yet I would still walk it). November 1, 2012
Course has improved greatly the past year and a half. Always a pleasant experience, plays quick, the course condition is always improving and the staff is excellent. October 31, 2012
Long, moderately challenging course The course was well maintained and enjoyable, however, they stacked a bunch of us to tee off together and the skill levels of the group were far too varied. The greens rolled extremely slow and will probably be better after they cut those on Nov. 2nd October 29, 2012
Excellent mid-west style course Always in great shape, staff works hard at helping to provide a good experience October 25, 2012
Will be playable in a few weeks Greens impossible due to recent overseed , very slow & unpredictable. October 25, 2012
decent course for the price course is fun and challenging. only drawback is the nearby power plant which sometimes has an overwhelming odor of diesel fuel. October 10, 2012
Usually a great muni Plsyed it scalped but the greens and tee boxes were good. Great pace. Got to witness an ace on the back. Great day overall even though scalped. Will definitely return October 5, 2012
Played in the heat of the day.... Played in the heat of the day on a Monday when no one was out. Check in was poor. Had to wait until two clerks discussed and resolved some sort of issue. Took a few minutes. Greens were in good shape and ran slow, rough was high, fairways and tees were fine. Restaurant and Bar was closed. Could not get any ice. Drinks were only sold out of pro-shop refrigerator. No beverage cart (as expected.) September 25, 2012
Good course, reasonable price We played on a early in the morning on a weekday, and the course was not very busy so we were able to finish in less than 4 hours. The greens were in excellent shape, very nice roll to them. As far as challenging goes, it is not that difficult of a course. September 20, 2012
