I've seen this course in much better shape just 3 years ago. But for the past 3 years the course has gone through a sad transformation to one of the worst kept courses in the state. The condition of the fairways are like playing in a pasture. There is an abundance of weeds in the fairways that have overgrown and an extreme amount of grass burrs in the rough. For the most part some of the greens are in good shape but there are a few that have been scorched by the heat and lack of maintenance. The tee boxes have not been watered and the grass has turned brown and become dormant for the summer. The course will need extreme care and maintenance for it to be somewhat playable again. I am sad that the Quartz Mountain Golf Course is in this poor condition. I don't recommend this course for anyone!
Would travel: 0-10 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: Better courses for less nearby, Worse than average course for the area
