Blocked shots

I forgot that I played this course last season. There are several blocked shots around the course which makes it very difficult to get around. Some of the fairways turn right or left so you can overcook drives into the woods easily. I'm not a good enough golfer to shape shots and hit on all these uneven hilly lies. I will probably stick to the shorter courses for a while until I get better.

Disappointed

Tees and greens rough.
Greens overly sloped and very fast. Ball would roll off the green on its own occasionally.
Overall the course needs someone to actually care and take care of it. Course and facilities are in need of a ton of TLC.
If the owners don't care any more just sell the course.
We got a great deal on Golf now otherwise value would be 1 star.
Has a ton of potential but most of it is unrealized
Don't waste your money

Really nice track

Really enjoyed my first time out at Cattails. It was on the list of courses in the area I hadn't played and had the opportunity to get out early on a Sunday. The staff was friendly and helpful. The course itself was in great shape and we were able to play at a very reasonable pace even though it appeared to be pretty busy. Moreso than many courses in the area, I think the layout is one that would be better on a return trip. There's a lot of holes with sharp doglegs or blind landings that we would've played differently if we knew better. Unique layout, frustrating at times, but overall very enjoyable. I think this would be an excellent scramble course. We will play again for sure.

Perfect weather

Definitely good to have a GPS with an overview of each hole before playing as several holes require strategic shots off the tee. Which is good as I like a course which makes you think. though this also cost me a few shots with not being familiar with the course. Greens were a bit below average for maintenance. The bunkers were more dirt/mud bunkers ...poor drainage and really no sand. This could be a good course with more upkeep of the bunkers and greens. And it would be nice to pave the short dirt/gravel road getting to the parking lot.

From the fourth hole I called the course because the pace of play was horrible. They sent out three kids in a cart as their ranger, what a joke they just laughed at them. Never play this course again. Took over 2.5 hours to play 9 holes.
