Beautiful course for the price. Only issue, greens are in rough shape, besides the 18th which was beautiful.. Believe they are working on them, hopefully by next year they'll be in better shape. Rough grass can be hard to hit out of, fairways were in beautiful shape. Tough course to hit for sure, only par'd 2 times.. Bar inside clubhouse is beautiful, but not in service, why, have no idea. CC has much potential, hoping they'll get more business to utilize everything they have on site.
Good course and challenging too. First time playing it and with the lack of rain the fairways were insanely fast. The greens were fast and bumpy as they had just aerated them . I know they can't control the leaves but that was a bit problematic finding our balls on occasion. It was nearly empty so I can kind of understand why the snack bar wasn't open. However, a glizzy and a drink at the turn would be nice. I'll definitely come back.
Heard the news earlier today of masked men with shotguns on an atv shooting geese? Hunting season is in the woods, not an open golf course with children and people walking. Those men are lucky they didn’t shoot someone. This is ridiculous, especially after finding out the owner of this golf course allowed this to happen? Way to go somerset. I’ve lived here for 17 years and have never met someone so volatile they would allow men to shoot animals that have been protected by our community for years. Disgusting behavior.
Great place to golf. No driving range or putting green. So be ready. Friendly staff and beautiful scenery. $45 for 18 holes and cart.
Challenging course in good condition. Very scenic, rolling hills and the Rapidan River along several holes. Staff is super-friendly. This is very much a "placement" course, good shots reward, bad shots can be easily result in double bogey. When it is dry the ball carries far and the greens are fast. There are several really fun holes, and a few very challenging holes. No snack bar, no driving range, so be prepared and bring what you need. Usually not terribly busy, so the pace of play is very good.
