Green Trees Golf Course

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play Green Trees Golf Course, and what can I expect from the conditions?

We highly recommend visiting Green Trees in the fall, typically late September through October, when the course truly lives up to its name with stunning foliage. The fairways are usually firm and fast then, offering a fantastic playing experience without the summer humidity. Spring, from April to early June, also provides lush conditions and comfortable temperatures, though you might encounter a bit more moisture.

What's the signature challenge at Green Trees, and how should I approach it?

The 12th hole, a par-4 dogleg left, is Green Trees' true test; its narrow chute of towering oaks demands precision off the tee. We advise leaving the driver in the bag and opting for a long iron or hybrid to find the fairway, setting yourself up for a clear approach to the elevated green. Don't get greedy, or those 'green trees' will quickly turn into a penalty.

Is Green Trees Golf Course a good value, and what should I budget for a round?

Green Trees offers exceptional value for the quality of golf you'll experience, especially considering its pristine conditions and challenging layout. You should budget around $75-100 for green fees with a cart on a weekend, which we think is a steal for a course of this caliber. Weekday rates are even more attractive, often dipping below $60.

How busy does Green Trees typically get, and what's the pace of play like on a weekend?

Green Trees is a popular spot, so weekend mornings can definitely be bustling, but the course does a good job managing tee times. You can generally expect a pace of play around 4 hours and 15 minutes to 4 hours and 30 minutes on a busy Saturday or Sunday. We suggest booking your tee time well in advance or aiming for a late afternoon slot for a more relaxed round.

What's the clubhouse experience like at Green Trees, and do you have any post-round recommendations?

The clubhouse at Green Trees is wonderfully unpretentious – it's comfortable and welcoming, not overly fancy, which we appreciate. We always grab a 'Tree Hugger Burger' and a cold local craft beer at the 19th Hole after our round; it's the perfect way to unwind and discuss your birdies and bogeys. The patio overlooks the 18th green, offering a great view of finishing groups.
