Frequently Asked Questions

How challenging is the course at Tees & Trees, especially with all those trees?

You'll find Tees & Trees lives up to its name, demanding precision off the tee. The fairways are tighter than they look, so we recommend leaving the driver in the bag on a few holes to avoid punching out from behind a mature oak. It's a true test of strategic placement, not just raw power.

When is the best time of year to experience Tees & Trees Golf Course?

We've played Tees & Trees in every season, and we firmly believe late spring or early fall offers the ideal conditions. The foliage is stunning, the temperatures are perfect for walking, and you'll avoid the summer humidity that can make those tree-lined fairways feel even more suffocating.

What's the standout hole or unique feature we should look forward to at Tees & Trees?

The par-3 14th hole is undeniably the course's gem, playing downhill through a chute of towering pines to a well-guarded green. It's a beautiful, intimidating shot that truly captures the 'Tees & Trees' spirit, and we still talk about the time we actually hit the green there.

Is Tees & Trees a good value for the green fee, or is it overpriced for the experience?

We think Tees & Trees offers solid value, especially considering the immaculate conditioning and unique challenge it presents. While not a budget course, you're paying for a meticulously maintained, mature parkland layout that feels genuinely distinct from your average municipal track. Expect to pay a bit more on weekends, but it's worth it.

Can you easily walk Tees & Trees, and what's the typical pace of play like?

You absolutely can walk Tees & Trees - in fact, we highly recommend it to fully appreciate the natural beauty and elevation changes. The course is designed with manageable distances between greens and tees, and we've generally found the pace of play to be quite reasonable, especially during weekday mornings.
