Great

Rainy winter day, but the course was still in good shape. They was doing some resurfacing, but did not bother play.

Great course

A nice, open, hilly layout. I enjoyed it very much. I'm from out of town and they paired me with two local ladies, which was very helpful and enjoyable.

Beginner Course

Good course for newer players. Plenty of different tee boxes to make the course as short and easy as you want to. If it's not busy you can fly around in 3 hours but a bad day is 4.5 hours plus. There is 6 holes with blind tee shots which is frustrating if the course is busy. The greens roll pretty good. There is a few holes where your drive can get you in trouble but overall it's a relatively open course.

always a good round of golf

Greens although had been punched recently still putted nicely a couple of the tee boxes needed some tlc but fairways looked fantastic even though we've had lack of rain. Staff are always super friendly.

Great course for the $

I’ve been playing Connemara for about 25 years. The course is in great shape, and is the best it has been since I’ve been playing it. I consider this my “home” course, and enjoy playing it.

Almost Perfect

From the club house/restaurant to the manicured greens to the lush fairways to the practice greens and driving range, this is one of the most well kept facilities in the area. And the fees are more than reasonable, even without a GolfNow Deal. Just a delightful experience all around.

Except for pace of play I've given 5 stars to every other area of this exceptional course. The lesser "pace" score has nothing to do with the course and everything to do with the group in front of us - no one in front of the 3 of them and yet they wouldn't let the 2 of us play through from the time we caught up with them on the 4th green. Please don't be that group whenever you play!

Great Course

Great Course to play for golfers of all skill levels. Wide open fairways with challenging greens, so you can really grip it and rip it.

I always play this course whenever I come into town to visit. Only hole that still needs some work, is the short Par 3 number 2 hole. May need to cut down some of the trees to allow more sunlight on the green.

Besides that, course was in outstanding shape, and has a great layout.

I highly recommend playing this course...

Connemara for the win!

Came here with practice at the range in mind , and left absolutely gobsmacked by the whole course! I came a little late in the day, and I am brand new to golfing, but the staff were professional, courteous, and kind. The course and the range are in really good condition, and the whole facility is kept up very well. I will definitely be coming back again and bringing my friends!
