Springview is like playing two different courses.The front nine is older with smaller turtleback greens, yet; they are receptive. The back nine is longer, and a more traditional layout with much larger, undulating greens. It's like playing two different courses for the price of one. I recommend you practice uneven lies as the there are plenty of hills. It's one of only a handful of area courses that is playable after substantial rainfall.
The course is fairly tight, your position is key!
Would travel: 30-60 Miles,undefined
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
Price, Pace of Play, Ambiance, No Houses on Course
