Outstanding views in every direction!

Tremendous course with dramatic elevation changes. Due to all the rain it was very wet, but still a fun track to play. Lots of water on this course so bring your best game with you.

Only downside is that it is VERY poorly marked. You cannot see the course from the road. I drove by it three times until I found it through pure luck. I was told that someone ran into the signpost three weeks ago. Come on guys ... You have a great course! Get that sign back up there today!

I'll be back!

Outstanding Golf Course 10 out of 10.

I would recommend this golf course to anybody, spectacular sites & views. Every hole an individual challenge, excellently designed through out right the way all the around the lake. You could pick out 8 out of the 18 holes as their signature hole!

Great layout but needs some TLC

Concra Wood is a superb layout with some tough holes.
The greens were average with a good base but poor grass coverage. The fairways while dry were not of consistent quality and probably suffered from poor soil quality and perhaps some drainage issues. The rough was very inconsistent and could do with some attention. The areas outside the boundaries of each hole are very rough and just gobble up golf balls - appreciate that we are not meant to be there anyway!!
