Wide open fairways

This course is perfect for an average player. Fairways are generous and most edges are sloped inward allowing for good bounces back in to the fairway on wayward shots. Greens were in great condition. The only negative about the course is the driving range. It's on a hill and very hard to dial in wedge shots.

Golf Now Specials & Course Fee Rate

Check-in was courteous and instant. IThe course fairways are coming in but many bare spots. Greens were aerated and a bit inconsistent with putting. Overall it was playable for the rate paid.

I was just thirsty

There wasn’t any water or cart service available on the course so after the front 9 we stopped to pickup drinks but there wasn’t anyone attending the pro shop. We did just grab some water with the intention of paying after we finished but we still couldn’t find an attendant.

Worst shape I’ve seen it in 3 years. Greens are long, tee boxes a mess, fairways brown and overgrown. Fantastic track but is not kept well lately.

Thank you for your comments.

Our fairways are a warm season, Bermuda grass. The Bermuda should start turning green towards late April to early May pending the temperatures.

We are keeping our greens height slightly higher to help promote root structure going into aerification on May 2nd and 3rd.

We look forward to having you back to Forest Greens and making your experience a great one!

Thank you for your feedback!

Short Round

I love this course. We only got to play the front 9 (twice) because of work on the back but it was still an enjoyable round. As with many courses this year the fairways are a bit thin but the greens are in pretty good condition. The staff at the Pro-Shop is always amazing and friendly!!

Nice Midweek Round

Pace of play was fantastic and the course conditions were pretty good for this time of year. It was a wet and mucky day but a great day for a Father/Son round of golf. I have played here before and look forward to the warmer weather and course conditions improving (as they always do).

Pretty Good for Winter

Fairways are brown but the dormant grass still provides a good base for shots. Rough was very reasonable. Greens are in good condition and roll well. The golfers aren't taking the bunkers, as usual and not the course's fault, so you may have to move your ball in the bunker to get a fair lie. Plea to my fellow golfers...rake your bunker mess as well as everything else you can reach! It takes less than a minute
