Adequate Golf, Dec 02, 2008 |

| This course is ok for the money. I don't know what the other guys are talking about, but the layout is open and fairly easy. Expect to shoot one of your lower scores of the year even while drinking a twelver. Cheap golf, easy layout, less than fair condition. |

 Bitter is the right name for the course, Jun 29, 2008 |

| I have only been to Bittersweet one time. The course is challenging. The staff is non-existent on the course. I had a 5 hour and 45 minute round, and when I complained about it, they looked at me funny. I also began to lose my golf swing during my round and have lost it for the last year, and I blame the waiting and frustration that I had at that course. I would never go back there, even if it were free for the rest of my life. I did not enjoy myself at all, and my game suffered for it. Stay away from this place. I gave it two stars because the course is challenging. |

bittersweet.....ehhh, Aug 01, 2004 |

| This golf course can be mean at times but if you are playing good golf im sure its fun. I golfed there was having a bad day and didnt like the course because they dont give you anyholes where you can just rip the ball, a lot of the fairways are surrounded by either water or trees. I found them most of the time, i think they need to settle down about. Also the golf course was chopped up a bit. I would say golf here if you are good, but if you are bad be prepared for a long day becasue this course is hard |

 Bittersweet is true, Apr 12, 2004 |

| A very challenging course. I went on a cold windy day in April. The fairways had much evidence of hacking and I put in my own also. This course requires a lot of long and fairly accurate tee shots or your likely to lose a lot of balls into water or wetlands, which happened to me. I'm sure the high winds didn't help. For the $35 special through most of April it was worth it. All prices, $30 - $45 weekdays and $30 - $75 on weekends include carts, I guess there is no walking. |
