August 11, 201313 yr Played in a golf outing yesterday at Flagg Springs. Maybe its a "You get what you pay for" situation, but that was absolutely the worse kept golf course I've ever seen. The greens were awful. I should have taken a picture because I can't even describe how they looked. Considering its a little big of a drive down the Double A, I have zero intention of ever playing there again.

If you are going to play golf in Campbell County I'd go to Hickory Sticks first then Jolly. I wouldn't even consider Flagg Springs.

I wouldn't even consider Flagg Springs. My thoughts exactly. Place is a dump. If you wanna go a little further out go to Pendleton County Club. Very nice.
August 14, 201313 yr have heard the owner is tighter than bark on a tree....explaining the two ugly, dying greens on the course.
August 14, 201313 yr ..........Never returned to Flagg Springs after I realized that there is a par 4 that is drivable, however, you have to hit directly over another green to go for it. That is dangerous as Hell. Flagg Springs is not even in the same league as Hickory Sticks, which I find incredibly fun to play.
August 14, 201313 yr I prefer Hickory Sticks as well. However the drive to HS is awful- those roads are miserable. The hill from the parking lot to the clubhouse is a hazard. Even with those 2 things, still a better experience than FS.
August 14, 201313 yr I'm glad I saw this thread. I've played most of the courses here in NKY, and have always wondered about Flagg Springs. Thanks for saving me a trip.

August 15, 201313 yr Which hole are you talking about? Don't know the hole numbers well enough, but the hole is a huge dogleg right, elevated tee, down below you to the right is a green, and you can aim over their heads to the green and cut the corner.
August 15, 201313 yr My thoughts exactly. Place is a dump. If you wanna go a little further out go to Pendleton County Club. Very nice. Private club...
August 15, 201313 yr I opted to not play in an outing this year because I hate Flagg Springs. You better wear a helmet because balls are flying everywhere. I think most of the wear and tear is from all the outings that take place there. Goat Ranch is a great description.
August 15, 201313 yr Author Don't know the hole numbers well enough, but the hole is a huge dogleg right, elevated tee, down below you to the right is a green, and you can aim over their heads to the green and cut the corner. It's on the back nine. I want to say somewhere between 14-16. I actually played through the trees and drove the green on that hole Saturday. It was an unreal shot that I'll never hit again. But yeah, that could be very dangerous for someone on the other hole.
