Old School Bruce Mathews Design

This may be the oldest Bruce Mathews golf course in the state as it was built in the late 50's. Some of the greens of some of the best he designed (IMO) and have elements of the old Stiles and Van Kleek courses I have played. Conditions were good and what you would expect for public course in this price range.

Course plays over relatively flat terrain, some slight land movement on the back 9. Course is worth a play to experience some of Bruce Mathews best greens.

Would only play on a hot deal

I would only recommend this course on a hot deal. The course was terribly kept. There are lots of dead areas with no grass including on the greens. The sand traps were more like compacted dirt/clay (no give). There are a ton of weeds as well. The kid mowing the grass/greens stopped only when teeing off and mowed right next to us when we were putting.My grass at my house is kept better than this course. Perhaps I have higher expectations for a course. It was only $10/pp but I expect better.

$20 course

It was $22 and it was worth $22. Nothing special but nothing horrible. Fairways a bit eaten up and tee boxes uncut. Greens were okay. Pace was good on a Thurs morning at 8a

Great course for the price

We had not been to this course in over 20 years and were pleasantly surprised. Course was in very good shape overall. Had a slow group in front of us but they let us play through. Would definitely go back again as price more reasonable than other courses around.

A nice surprise - great bang for the buck.

This golf Has dramatically improved from the last time I played. The greens rolled true and most of the bunkers had nice sand and were properly prepared. This course was in the beat shape I have see it in the past 25 years.

As far as the course layout goes, it is a throwback to 75 years ago, small postage stamp greens, tree lined fairways and very flat and easy to walk.

It is an excellent family course, they also have a fun 9 hole course that is perfect for first time golfers (it actually used to be lighted back in the 60's and 70's).

I will likely be back now knowing that they are doing a much better job maintaining this hidden family owned / operated gem.

Give this place a try

The course was in very good condition. The greens were excellent if you hit a good putt they went in. The back nine was much shorter but there is much more water in play. The staff was very friendly, I will play there again well worth the money.

Short strategic golf course

The golf course is in pretty average shape, very playable though. Course features include a few very short risk/reward holes. Accuracy will definitely help you into many of the tiny greens, which are pretty undulating for their size. The pro shop is pretty old but the food is very good and nicely priced. Overall the place is decent and worth visiting with a few friends.

Sporty

This course, while not being very long, offers some challenge that will force golfers to think more than just gripping and ripping it. Very small target greens and tight fairways on the back nine.

Surprising backside

Blossom Trail's front 9 is flat, wide open and just moderately challenging. However, the the back 9 is totally different with rolling hills, trees and challenging holes with several hazards. The blend of the 2 makes for a good round of golf.
