Description

General Burnside Island State Park Golf Course occupies a unique island setting, creating engaging visuals and occasional breezes that influence play. Fairways provide width, but water and angled green sites encourage careful targeting. The par 3s are especially photogenic and demand precise yardages. Conditioning emphasizes firm fairways and receptive greens to keep rounds moving. With lake views and a full practice area, it's one of the state-park system's signature experiences.

First time playing this course but I will definitely be playing it again. Fairways were in great shape the greens were all very consistent. Staff was very friendly and helpful with the layout of the course. Was a little slow but I was not in a hurry so I enjoyed the view.

Pretty nice public state owned golf course…they are redoing some of the bunkers so some are perfect and some are unplayable…some of the softest greens I’ve ever played..holds the ball coming in well…fly it all the way to the hole!! The zoysia fairways are like carpet!! Wildlife abound…we saw deer, ground hogs, all types of birds, some even seen turkeys!! Pretty tough layout for length and the greens do roll true but not very fast…only complaint would be amount of weeds in rough, bunkers, etc. Makes very hard to play the ball down with all the vine type weeds…is a little pricey on the weekend…57$ for 18 with a cart!! Worth the trip to play there!!

Course is in excellent shape. However, my quickest round the last 4 times I have played here is 5 hours and 15 minutes. Course needs a starter or ranger. Paid $58 for cart path only in November to take 5 hours and 15 minutes to play. My tee was 9:30. Got there at 9:28 and 3 other groups were waiting to hit.

I’ve always heard that General Burnside Island golf course was a top public course in KY. Well today it lived up to expectations. The fairways are nice and plush but the greens are excellent. They are very true even in the breaks. Today I just happened to score my personal best 77. Only one thing threw me off and that was the gravel fairway bunker on #10. It’s a little pricey too ($53). No senior discounts for the weekends. Otherwise, I can’t wait to come back.

Very nice park W/E most sites have put in a few full hookups. Camp hosts work very hard, and are very friendly. Highly recommend.
