Good Value

The course is centrally located and well maintained. Variation in elevation was a real plus, mature course with scenic river views.

I highly recommend this course.

Poor course conditions

The 9th green has been ruined by gophers. There were a ton of leaves on the course, which is annoying when your looking for your ball. The creek beds are dry, but there is standing water where there shouldn't be. Not sure I'll go back, especially at $47 a round.

Nice layout and scenic

Most of the greens were nice but several were in dyer need of maintenance. Loved the layout of the course with all the trees. Some narrow fairways kept you honest. I haven’t played the course in awhile, and others than the green repairs, everything was nice.

Barry

Definitely a city ran golf course. The best thing about the course is the layout. The T boxes are poor at best. Fairways are very rough. Greens are good but the hazards(sand traps) were terrible.

Course in poor condition, needs lots of TLC

The course is not well taken care off. Rough was so tall, balls were difficult to find. Tee boxes had multiple types of grass. Sand traps didn't appear to have been manicured for weeks (weeds). The maintenance of this course is minimal at best.

The greens were good - soft and held iron shots well. The speed of the greens was ideal.

Golf carts are average condition with parking brakes difficult to set. Cart paths very rough. Parking lot full of weeds.

Overall, I am not sure how this golf course remains a viable business. I will not play it again nor recommend it.

Wow

This was a blast. Really loved this course. It was sad to play the hole by the old Iron Skillet. I would definitely recommend this place. Course was in good shape.

Good value for the price

It was our first time playing on this course. We did enjoy it except for the soggy areas from a downpour the night before. Good place to practice for different skill levels and very convenient to the city area. I’ll definitely come back.

Tough Course

Overall this was a cool and challenging course. Could use a little upkeep, especially with the golf carts and pavement on the steep cart paths. Very good value though; would definitely go again.

Best City owned course

For a municipal course. This is the best in the area. Look, it’s not private course in Carmel but if you’re looking for a good deal on a city course. This is a great one.

Back 9

You may want to call ahead to make sure back 9 is open. Booked 18 not knowing back 9 was closed. Course was over crowded with people circling back around to play a second round of 9.

Do not play here

I want to love coffin - the layout is more the just shoot straight and don’t miss. But the course conditions are just abysmal. It feels like you’re hitting off concrete with ever shot. Even in the fairways. The tee boxes are not mowed at all. Good luck finding a place to put your tee or an even spot to stand in. The greens are fun and offer a good challenge, but they are spotty too. I will not be playing here again. Many other courses that are in far better shape near by.

Conditions were awesome

If you haven’t played coffin in the last 3 years, you’re missing out. The course is a test to skill and beautiful at the same time. One that you can score a 90 on and be pumped about. I will be back.
