The Rookery North Golf Course

It's normally a challenging but awesome course. Went to play on Monday and for $60 a round it's definitely not worth it right now. The tee boxes were very unmanaged and we're rough to say the least. Most of the greens were dead, especially 17 (looks like they are trying to fix this one at least) and if you were on the fringe, good luck. You almost have to play the bump and run everytime because there's no way you'll be able to read how your ball is going to roll through the patches of grass and sand. I will give them the benefit of the doubt on the bunkers, they were very hard and most were filled with water but that's probably from the rain over the weekend. It honestly reminded me of Frog Hollow around this time last year after their sprinkler system fried. But at least they recognized the condition and lowered the prices. Until they work on the course and get it back up to par (pun intended), I'd much rather play a course actually worth $60 or Johnathan's Landing twice. I'm not trying to trash talk the course and say I'm never playing here again, just that it's not worth full price right now, but I'll definitely be back when it's in better condition.

Only played the front 9 but nice layover, course and grass were very dry. Great tee boxes but greens need some work but pins all in playable positions so the opportunity areas do not effect you. 4 stars based on course conditions and value. $35 for 18 holes.

The Good: the greens were in great shape (see note below), the course was not crowded, the fairways & rough were fairly well maintained.

The Bad: $60 on a Friday morning was a bit high, the tee boxes were very chewed up, numerous bare spots in the fairways, and they top sanded the greens that morning (my only guess because they were expecting 2" of rain that night...they had not punched or aerated the greens, just top sanded).

From my local friend who took me, the course has come a long way since the "Rookery Group" took over, but in my opinion, they still have a little ways to go.
