This is the second time that I have played Blair Park. It was a bargain, under $20 online including cart. Tees, greens, and fairways are in good condition.
This is basic golf. The most scenic hole from tee to green was #13, photo worthy. No blind holes. As a high handicapper, this was appreciated!
Easy to keep the ball in play. Rough was not severe. Aprons around greens even allowed a choice to putt.
The staff was friendly. The pro shop is well stocked with good prices. The food/snack bar was spacious, with nice paintings of the course.
Pace of play was great. As a single player, I got around in 3 hours without anyone behind me!
One cricitism....as one who likes to walk courses, fairways are wide and distance from green to tee is too long.
Otherwise, water coolers were stocked and plentiful.
I'd play again.
Would travel: 0-10 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
