Played 8/5/26 4 PM. POP 3.5. Course is in really great shape for this time of year. Typically the fairways are slightly burnt and painted over. But right now they are mostly green and lush with great coverage. Firm underneath, but playing well. Greens were in great shape. Receptive and rolled well at a medium pace. Tees pretty beat up. Traps in decent shape with the new sand in most. Temps very manageable in the twilight. Easy recommend!

Played 6/22/26 2:15 POP 3:20. Course is still in really good shape. Greens great, receptive w/ good roll. Not too many afternoon foot prints. Fairways have great coverage, green and very good to gre... Continue »

Played 6/22/26 2:15 POP 3:20. Course is still in really good shape. Greens great, receptive w/ good roll. Not too many afternoon foot prints. Fairways have great coverage, green and very good to great shape. They have fixed one of their weak spots. The traps. They all have new sand and are in really good shape and consistent. Now they need to work on their tees.

Played 6-17-26 3 pm POP 3.5 hr. Course is in over all great condition Except for the traps & tees. Fairways had great coverage with only a occasional dry/thin spot along the edges. Mostly green and lush with the ball sitting nicely. Greens were in great shape. Rolled fairly well at a medium pace. Slightly firm, but you could stop balls with good strikes. Only an occasional sick spot along an edge. Traps & tees are the only and true week spot. Especially the tees. I think it is way past time that they need to address this. You have to be able to hit shots from either down hill or up hill lies, because that seems to be your only choice when teeing off. Most traps are very firm with little sand in them. You might just need to ignore the tee markers and just find a spot that is hittable. Still a easy recommend and one of my favorite courses to play.

Played 4/17&18. POP for both afternoon tee times was a little over 4 hrs. Greens have healed from aeration and were in great shape. They have firmed up a bit. Well struck shots would stop and others a little run out. Speed was at a medium pace and roll was typical for the Poana in the afternoon. Fairways had great coverage and green. Firming up and cut tight. I was in many traps and they were all difficult. Very firm with little to no sand and seemingly no one raking their mess's. Tees are the trouble spot here and locations were difficult and in poor shape. Overall the course is in very good to great shape except for the tees & traps. Saw the cart girl once on Sat. The course was pretty busy, but pace was good. A short but fun & challenging course. Easy recommend.

Played 3/28/26 1:30 POP 4 +. A very busy Sat. Waited on many shots but overall not too bad. Course was in over all good to great shape. They punched the greens a couple weeks prior. Most had remnant signs of the punching and coupled with the Poana grass, they were on the bumpy side. They were extremely soft. It was actually difficult to not have the ball stop quickly, even on chips & pitches. Very fun to see your shots spin back. I had one shot plug in the green. They were running on the slow side. They should be completely healed in another week or so. I noticed a couple of small dead spots near the fringes on a couple of greens, but most had great full coverage. Fairways have grown in well and were lush & green (Not Paint). Ball sat nice with decent roll out. Tees & traps were the typical trouble spot. Many tee placements had no flat spots to hit from on this day and traps were mostly firm. Greens will improve quickly. Still my favorite twilight course in SD. Although I have heard that they have done away with twilight rates, which really sucks if true. They continue to clear and clean many of the overgrown areas and the course is looking fantastic and continues to improve. New carts with interactive GPS. A definite recommend.

I played here a couple of weeks ago and was just really blown away. I've read a couple of google reviews about bad staff, but my experience was fantastic. They were super friendly and helpful. The course layout was amazing; it's on the short side but with the narrow fairways and obstacles it was super fun and challenging. The greens were fantastic and rolled well, no unfixed ball marks. The fairways were perfect, especially considering they were not overseeded and were all hybrid Bermuda. The greenside bunkers were soft, and the fairway bunker I hit was a little firm just like they should be. The elevated tee boxes were small, and I can definitely see how a lot of play would be challenging to manage but they were level and had great coverage were the markers were at. Looks like they have new carts with gps yardages and geo fencing. I would 1,000% recommend playing. Great value, great course.

Played Saturday, May 17, 9:50 teetime, $100 rate, POP was an excellent 4hrs.

Customer service excellent. The chef in the restaurant really kicks some serious butt! Keep up the good work my man. Starter, Gil, was great. Marshall was all over the course doing a great job ensuring an excellent POP at 4hrs and that was with about a 10-15min stop at the turn to use the restroom and grab some lunch.

Course is in overall good to great shape.

White tees need a little leveling and had quite a bit of divot damage because they are so narrow, but just take an extra 30 seconds to find a good spot to tee it up.

Fairways were in excellent shape and getting better. They're doing some cart control with some short fencing which is helping keep areas in better condition.

I didn't find any bunkers, but they looked like they were just fine.

Rough was just fine, especially around the greens. Very few bare spots with consistent coverage and fairly lush, but predictable.

Greens were a little shaggy, spongy and slower than normal, perhaps because of aeration about a month ago. They held shots very well! but didn't putt quite as smooth as normal. I predict in a couple of weeks, they will be beautiful and at that time the course will be awesome on all aspects.

Always an easy recommendation. They've increased the rates a little bit, but they're putting money into the course.

Played last week green still not in good conditions Aeration effectively on tee boxes and greens.

Played 11/23/24 11 am POP 4:05 Course is in overall decent to good shape. Fairways are cut tight and mostly dormant, but have very good coverage. They have painted them green. They play fine with very good roll out, but have mostly tight lies. Greens were in mostly great shape. Receptive and ran well at a medium pace. Noticed many bumps and wobbles, but they putted well. They have done repair work on many of the greens with replacement sod patches. Mostly on the fringes. Seldom caused any issues. Traps firm, tees a little above average for typical Mt. Woodson shape. Always enjoy playing this course with the views, and fun layout and they continue to improve the conditions. I wouldn't call it "Lush", but it is playing fine and it is a easy recommend.
