Island West Golf Club

Having played this course every year during our visit this was the worse year for the conditions of the course. The greens have weeds grown up in them, tee blocks very bare with grass and overall the rough was definitely that, ROUGH! Even though the rate was reasonable we understand why as the course was not worth more than we paid through Golf Now. Com. We cannot recommend to our friends who are coming next week that this is the course to play.

The course was in excellent condition. The starter got me off even though the course was busy. You will not be disappointed if you play this course.

Greens are a mess. Only one green did not have problems. Bare spots in some of the fairways.

Needs some TLC.

Greens were in rough shape. Looks like they were painted with the blue dye. Not very well at that. Sand traps not maintained. Cart paths rough. After I finished number 9, a foursome that just got done with lunch jumped to 10 in front of me. Play in front of them slow.
No interaction with staff except for pro shop associate. Nice guy....

I've played Island West several times- spring, summer and fall and it's condition has been the same. Greens were dead or painted, very few traps were playable and the cart paths will cause you to lose teeth.

The layout is fine but if conditions don't improve, I won't be back. There are too many courses in the HHI area to try.

Best golf day . Weather was perfect, course in great shape

Course needs improvement. Cart paths were extremely rough. Lost several balls because it’s almost impossible to see through the roughs. But for 28 bucks you can’t complain too much.... very friendly and professional staff

The course overall was in reasonable condition. Most of the Greens Rolled well but several of the greens had weeds growing. The rough was virtually unplayable, you could not find your ball unless you stood on it which took some of the fun of the course and round away

Course is showing seasonal wear and tear. Cart paths are in bad shape. Greens and fairways were decent. Rough was a bit deep. Lost ball or 2 just off the fairways. Ok course for the price. Wasn't busy but had a slow foursome in front of us.

Great course for the money and the staff is very friendly

Course was fun to play and the staff was excellent. The bunkers could use some help and the cart paths have some rough spots. I always have had a good experience here and the price is right.

Fairways in great shape looks like they are working hard to get the greens back in shape they are coming along

This is a good layout -- Zoeller design -- that needs work around the edges. Good fairway grass...but the rough was out of control. Very wet from recent rains, but the course does not drain well...lots of "mud." Some of that is due to the rain, but also lack of care. Lots of weeds growing in flower beds...cart paths are virtually destroyed in many, many places.

Greens were actually fairly quick and true...except in a few spots where they were burned out. Not a problem today.

Staff are friendly -- but no beverage cart or ranger.

This course gives you the impression they are on the economic edge.

Great price, though! I would recommend as a place to work on your game.

IW is closest course to me so it's convenient and usually not crowded. Greens and fairways in good shape. Tee boxes are a little rough and if I recall ball washers weren't all functional. Cart guy not always out there at bag drop. Overall usually a low price option of the Brown courses. The walk up resident rate is often better than the GN rate.

I love the course. It's a little inconvenient and off island but well worth getting in your car and going 20 minutes west on 278.
