A gem from the forward tees
I played saddleBrook for the first time yesterday (June 23, 2022). I was very pleasantly surprised, since I had read some negative reviews.
Pluses:
1. The greens and fairways we're in A+ condition, which was shocking for late June!
2. The course is player- friendly, but probably only from the forward ( red and yellow) tees. I highly recommend the course for seniors and women, but not to anyone who plays from further back.
3. The staff was friendly, rental clubs were only $15, and there is a discount for seniors.
4) My round was on a weekday afternoon (around 1PM) and moved quickly (under 4- hours for a single).
5) The front 9 is easier than the back.
6. The greens roll true, but are all fast!
7. The sand is hard, but you can putt out of most sandtraps, which is nice!
Minuses:
1. Be careful about when you play and try to pick weekday afternoons. With T- times 8- minutes apart, it can likely get jammed -up on weekends and mornings.
2. The course has lots of water and much of it comes into play from the longer tee boxes. There is much less water from the forward tees.
3. I liked all the holes except #5, #16 and #18 (requiring carries over water). #18 is a killer hole that requires a lay-up and hitting over water to the green (the only green that does not roll true). Not a happy- ending hole.
Overall this is a course that is conveniently located and definitely is worth trying. I plan to return.
6/7/22 beautiful day
Pros
Greens speed consistency good
Fairways very good
Cons
Typically a 25$ public course only due to nice layout
Bunkers poor to need to be filled in
Tee box’s beat up
Greens smooth But would not hold a wedge
Same colored flags on each hole
Couldn’t tell from fairways position of hole
Red white blue flags would help
Cart paths are in serious trouble in some spots
Concession area closed
Improving
This course has been under improvements since 2018.. There was no marshal on duty to regulate pace of play., several bunkers had no sand or maintenance . Greens were nice and rolled true. Tee boxes were maintained. The course is getting better but there are several areas that could use improvements. It is a fun course.
Getting better!
I’ve played this course twice this spring/summer and they’re doing a great job improving the grounds! Staff is always friendly and helpful. They could use a ranger on busier days, the back was super backed up. Overall, a great value for the money!
Low end - Poor mans Muni
Place was awful. All Carts were taken and had to wait 10 minutes past our tee time to get a cart. Then waited 20 minutes on the tee box. ZERO amenities. Wanted beer and water and no one could check us out. ZERO food. Beginners Muni. No need to play here ever again.
Oh, geese everywhere, geese crap everywhere. All the water hazards were green stagnant water that smelled like my old dorm room.
Great place to golf
Came from Ohio, was meeting a friend in Indianapolis and thought why not, I’ll check out this golf course close by. It did not disappoint! Beautiful course. Will definitely recommend
Depressing
Saddlebrook has a decent layout. Especially for golfers learning the game. It’s just in such poor shape. The greens are bumpy, the fairways are bare in places, and the rough is completely full of weeds. A shorter course that has potential, but it’s so poorly kept that I won’t be back
Ok for $30 or less
Great layout for a short track if they fixed a few things and the upkeep of the course it could be great. Also we had to wait for a cart could have been semi avoided if they made singles share carts.not the courses fault Also I have never been on a course with so many residents who don’t like golfers. Most no trespassing or private property signs I have ever seen on a course. Even had a home owner throwing golf balls back on the course and complaining about golfers on hole 12
