This is the city course I am most familiar with. Planning to review the others. Clifton is a great! Challenging holes. Well kept greens. Helpful staff. Well kept carts. You are likely to run across some deer. Cost isn't outrageous. I'd suggest getting a players card, it'll pay for itself in short order if you plan to play often (weekly). You typically can grab a back 9 every week. Hey I just picked the game up this year and I'm hooked
Good conditions this year, greens are exactly what to expect. Hidden gem in the city as far as public golf goes. Tips were around 6,100 yards today.
We are tourists visiting from Australia and decided to give Clifton Park golf course try. Just for some background, we are both on golf Australia’s magazines top 100 rankings. Panel and have played over 300 different courses so we have seen a lot of different facilities. We were absolutely wonderfully surprised at how good Clifton Park golf course could be. Plenty of elevation changes and challenging side hill lies along with really good greens considering it is a local Muni. Some interesting T-shirts that really make you think about club choice and where to land the ball. For $48 it is incredibly good value for a really good facility right in the heart of Baltimore. To add to the experience the Pro Shop and starter were really wonderful to deal with and despite some bad reviews from five years ago we had a very pleasant afternoon and got around well under four hours on a Thursday. We have paid a lot more and got a lot less from other golf courses and would happily play here again. Holly recommend that you play a game here remembering that it is a municipal facility and. Don’t expect it to be presented like Augusta the week of The Masters.
Hidden gem... This course was VERY well maintained when you compare it to the other classic 5 courses and the 5 county courses, the greens were rolling well. The layout was also fantastic especially for it being in the middle of the city, I honestly didn't even notice the cars or streets especially if you don't think about them. 100% an overlooked course that I will be returning to.
First time playing here in years. In decent shape. Fairways were good. Greens were in great shape. Fun course to play.
