This is a challenging course with three lakes on the front nine. The back nine is very hilly and has one lake. The greens are fast, short, and deceiving to read. This course is one of the few in the area that has a sprinkler system on all fairways and greens. Therefore, it is in tip-top shape while other courses are browning out.

Beautiful scenery with tough holes, Jul 19, 2010

reviewer: Trent E. Smith from Columbus, OH

Wow, what a spectacular golf course. Every hole is like an Ansel Adams photograph. Don't be taken back too much by the scenery though, some of these are really tough holes and will challenge any level of golf expertise. I was there for the first time for the Jeffie Memorial Golf Outing on July 17th. What a great cause, and what a great course to use for the event.

Briar Creek Golf Course
"Enjoy Golf Again or The Way Golf Used To Be"
Briar Creek Golf Course is a fun course to be played by both medium and high handicap golfers. Its layout is a chalenging mix of 18 holes fit in a flat land leading up to the creek with hillside on the other side of the creek. Several ponds and sandtraps provide hazards to avoid while the greens are usually the best in the area. The drawback is its distance at only 5300+ yards and so low handicap golfers should play it but only to enjoy the chance at chasing a par round of 70. The true delight of this courses is its playability and round playing time of around 4hrs. There is no long slow play at Briar Creek due to its layout. The three finishing holes on the front nine include an par 3 island green, a drivable par 4 with trouble to the right and "catcher's mitt" sandtrap to the left and a par 3 number nine. These three can yield 3 birdies or a bogey or two. The back nine has a similar opportunity for success or failure with a short par 5 number 15 which with a good second shot has you shooting for eagle or a bad second shot gets sucked into the creek and you are fighting for bogey or worse. Number 16 is an uphill par 3 that winds will control alot of your success followed by a downhill par 4 number 17 that I consider the course's signature hole. A tiny green that seems to be drivable but you must carry a pond and a creek so a 5 wood or a mid iron off the tee is best to a landing area between the two water hazards. The final hole number 18 is a dog-legged left par 5 with plenty of yardage and trees. The greatest part about Briar Creek is that its fun to play with great people and well maintained greens. The way golf used to be!!

"Great Course"
This course requires all the clubs in your bag yet does not require a 300 yard drive to play. Would recomment it to anyone for an enjoyable round of golf

Augusta Golf Course
"A fun course for the price."
Augusta Municipal Golf Course, affectionately known as "The Cabbage Patch" certainly isn't in the same league as its "big brother" on Washington Road, or even some of the more expensive public courses (The River, Jones Creek) in the Augusta area. However, that doesn't mean it's not a fun (and at times, very challenging) course to play. Greens range from very forgiving early in spring to harsh and very tight in summer and mid-winter. Fairways are narrow enough to provide a challenge off the tee on most holes. Rough is punishing throughout the course - so do your best to keep your ball out of it! Course upkeep can leave something to be desired, especially on weekends in spring and early summer. Don't be put off by the course's short length - you'll still find plenty of opportunity to hit every club in the bag. However, the short length does make for a good chance to walk the course and save a few bucks. Be sure to call for a tee time first, expecially on the weekends. New renovations to the clubhouse and a WONDERFUL staff add to the enjoyment of playing this cheap, fun, popular course where dozens of kids, students, and beginning adults have gotten their first taste of the game.

Mistwood Golf Course
"We're not in "Chicago" anymore!"
I play alot of high-end golf courses and this was as fun as I have had for the price I paid. The layout was very memorable and fun to play. The greens were lightning fast and is comparable to many great country club greens. I played horrible there but I enjoyed the experience. The staff was very polite and friendly from the time I got out of my car to when I had a conversation with the Chef who cooked me my steak the way I wanted it. See you in 2004!
