Arrowood Golf Course was the perfect place to celebrate my father-in-law’s 60th birthday. We played on a Friday afternoon, and the experience couldn’t have been better. The course itself is absolutely beautiful—well-maintained fairways, pristine greens, and stunning views throughout. It’s clear that the staff takes great care in keeping everything in top shape, and it really shows in the playability of the course. One of the standout features of Arrowood is how open it feels. Unlike some courses where you’re constantly waiting on the group ahead, the pace of play here was smooth and enjoyable. We never felt rushed but also didn’t have to sit around between shots, which made for a really relaxing round. The layout is fun and offers a great mix of challenges without being overly punishing, making it a great course for all skill levels. Beyond the course itself, the staff was fantastic—friendly, professional, and clearly passionate about making sure guests have a great time. Whether you’re looking for a casual round with friends or celebrating a special occasion like we were, Arrowood is a top-tier choice. Can’t wait to come back!

Played course on 29 April 2025. Course had great practice facilities with a full size range, chipping, and putting greens available. The range is turf and has trackman technology. Tee boxes are level and cut nice. Fairways were punched but still in good shape. Greens rolled perfectly. The bunkers are well maintained. I must say the course staff in the pro shop and the starter made me feel welcomed from the moment I got to the course. they layout of the course is challenging and has elevation difficulties that make you choose your clubs correctly. I definitely recommend this course to everyone. I will be back.

This course was fantastic. I played at 7am so it was a little overcast, I bet it would have been even nicer once the sun came out. This is a really nice and affordable place to play and I will definitely be back!!!

Excellent all around! The grounds and course are stunning. Everyone on staff is incredibly kind (Bob is the BEST!) and we love the family-friendly environment. We're there at least once a week thanks to the Apex program and youth team programs. The Flight Deck driving range is our favorite!
