Granite Falls Golf Club offers two courses, the North Course and the South Course. Rolling hills sprinkled with stately trees and large greens define both courses. The South Course has a challenging layout that appeals to all skill levels with four sets of tees and subtle but effective bunkering. Water comes into play on 10 holes. The golf course offers a scenic finishing hole that has two lakes, joined by a cascading waterfall with a fountain in the background. In addition to the two golf courses, Granite Falls Golf Club boasts extensive practice facilities including a short game area with a practice bunker, two putting greens, and a grass driving range with target areas.

Nice experience out there.

Actually made it there in time to loosen up N get some groove, which HELPS ! Weather sorta' cooperated as wind died down after about 5/6 holes,which had been really swirly and BRISK.
Greens rolled well after bein' punched a FEW weeks earlier so no "problemo'" there & consistently good conditions throughout is really impressive for this time O' year. Plenty of room for shots off tees but U definitely must pay attention on approach for sure.
We really enjoyed this place & give credit to the warm Folks there. TH A N K S, We'll be back !

Beautiful course!

Absolutely loved this course! It was my first time playing it and really enjoyed my round. The staff was super friendly and nice. The course was in amazing shape! Not one flaw at all. I could not ask for a better course for the price. My friends and I will definitely be back soon!!

Nice course...a little crowded

Granite Falls South is a nice course with a good layout. Greens were in pretty good shape considering how busy it is. The manager checked me in, there were 50+ people waiting to pay, however he was very friendly and helpful, nice to see since I wasn't a "local" community member. Pace was pretty slow. Other than that I would play again!!

Nice

Overall this was a fun round. Lots of water hazards. Played from the whites. Started on a shotgun start which was a little weird since we weren't told beforehand that that would be the case. Signed up through GolfNow and the staff didn't seem too pleased about that. I'm in my 30s and we were easily the youngest people there by at least 20 years (not a complaint, just an observation), and there was a TON of people, very busy course. The greens are huge and have a lot of ridges and slopes. Only gripe is we weren't provided an overhead view of any hole (nothing built into the cart and the cards only show greens) so we had a lot of blind tee shots that ended up in spots we should have avoided if we'd know they were there.

Waited on Every Shot

First, I booked on Golf Now and Paid them $33 towards our tee time. However, the course made us pay full price there and said Ehatvwe paid GN didn't matter. Then, they sandwiched a two-some in between 2 4-domes in a shotgun start. No notice that this was joe we'd be playing. Worst experience ever. Will never go back and will never recommend this course. Maybe you need to be 75+ to appreciate this pace of play and Way they play.

Fun in the sun

This course has a nice setup. The grass had been scalped getting ready for overseer. But the course was in good shape and challenging. I will definitely play here again.

First time at the course.

Great staff! Played as a single and was paired up with three other players that was a joy to play with. Course was prepping for overseed so it was scalped all over. Still fun to play and I will return.

Nice Course... True greens

The course was preparing for overseed so the fairways were cut low... Overall a nice layout with a few interesting holes like a
250 yard par 4 with water on 3 sides. Nice wide fairways and some very large greens to hit to. All in all a nice experience.

Beautiful fairways and excellent greens

Really enjoyed this course, the fairways are generous and greens are exceptional. Being it was the summer season the course wasn't busy and we played 18 holes in 3 hours. Will definitely play this trek again!

Great course

The course was in good condition with nothing wrong. I guess we just picked a bad day because it seemed like hole after hole we were waiting on a lawn mover to get out of the way. There were a few holes where the tee markers weren't placed out on the tee box but we're just off to the side. The worst part was the guy in the pro shop. He tried charging me $39 after I booked off golfnow for $18!!! He was just rude the whole time and didn't like him.
