This club has three nine hole courses that are played in three eighteen hole combinations. All three courses are Scottish links-style designs which feature greens, fairways, and tees. The courses were built on gently rolling terrain and all basically play the same. The fairways are open and well bunkered, and the greens are large. There is a twelve acre man-made lake that comes into play on six of the twenty-seven holes. The signature hole is #7 on the Valley Course, a 520-yard, par 5, which was cut out of a valley. The PGA Cadillac Pro Am was played on the Pines/Lakes Course in 1995. Tee time reservations are mandatory; walk-ons are not allowed to play here.

| Colonial Springs is a nicely maintained course with a lot of charachter. It can pose a difficult time to the average golfer if played off the tips. I found the gold tees (the tips) to be a long course. However, there are two other tees available to play from for men that can cut down on the length. The tees, fairways, and greens are well maintained. I would have thought that getting out as a walk-on would not be a problem with three nines, but as they say, you better get a teetime. This club has a great practice facility boasting tightly mown grass slots at the driving range, a chipping green, and a large putting green. I saw no bunker to practice from, but the rough around the green will challange you. This is true on the course as well.
The staff is large and treat you like a member of a country club. The clubhouse is large in size giving you a country club feel. The only downside of the clubhouse is the grill, which is a bit pricy. I thought the greensfees are expensive too, but you do get an overall good experience for your money. |
