Meadowbrook Golf Club, Rutherfordton, NC

I played this course on 8/9/12. I'd read the previous reviews and didn't have high hopes for this course. Well...I was in for a VERY pleasant surprise. THe course was in very good shape. A couple of the greens were a little iffy due to a very hot summer. It was only a couple of greens and it really didn't impact my round. The tee boxes had to be some of the best I have ever seen. They were green and had a thick coat of grass and were very well maintained. THe fairways were also thich and lush. The front nine was pretty wide open and you really can't get into too much trouble. THe back nine...another story. THey recently re-did #s 10 and 11 and they were a challenge...(long Par 4s with a hazard running through them). THe fairwarys were a little narrower...and the back nine about 175 to 200 yards longer than the front nine. A very nice feature was a sign on every tee box telling yuo how to play the shot..and how far the hazards were from the tee. THere was a 4 some in front of us that were a little slow..and they apologized to us after the round...which I thought was pretty classy. I loved this course and for the $25 senior rate during the week. I will be playing it again!
