Inexpensive
Piperdam course is a good course with great scenery and some challenging holes.It starts with a 120yd par 3 over a lake. I played with 3 local members and 2 of them put their first shot in the water. Its deceptive and has a roll off back into the lake if your short off the tee.
Some very sloping fairways towards the lake will catch out wayward shots. and well placed fairway bunkers are there to catch 'average' drives off the tees. This is part of a holiday complex with waterside chalets so expect the odd walker who hasn't read the signs. Not knowing the course, I shot 86 on my 11 handicap but was pleased overall with the round and the course. Staff were very friendly and helpful as were the local golfers with advice. The greens were a bit bear in places because of the dry weather I think but rolled well. This course and Downfield are the only courses close to Dundee city now as both municipal courses have closed. Expect Piperdam to be busy at weekends with societies and holidaymakers. Paid ?30 on Golf Now for the round. Definitely play again when next in the area.

A Lovely course but !!
A lovely course but needs lots of TLC to get it back to how I remember it last. The tee area's are acceptable but the greens are quite literally shocking. The owners need to spend some money on this otherwise it will go even more downhill than it is at the moment and that would be a real waste of great golfing ground.Reviewer Rating

My round around Piperdam 02/4/2025
Generally very good course to visit, layout is great, if you know where you are going. I am going to say that there were NO TEE MARKERS NO DIRECTIONAL SIGNS I lost my way and missed about 6 holes at least, it NEEDS MORE SIGNAGE, I will not play course again until it does.Reviewer Rating

Worth a round if you have never played this course.
A quirky opening par 3 to open and then some interesting holes. Lots of run from left to right and right to left on the front 9 holes. back 9 I think is better and much flatter. Overall a nice course and deffo worth playing it at least once if you can. A very acceptable Green fee almost .Reviewer Rating

First Visit and well impressed.
My brother invited me up to play this and I was glad I accepted. Nice little Par 3 to start over water. Some blind holes off the tee but lots of great holes overall. Highly recommend you give this a try if you have never played it.(Round played: May 2021 - Score: 81 Handicap: 15.8)

Nice course! Was out with the boys the night before and felt a little rough, but was given a cup of tee on arrival which was fantastic. The course was a fairway from the clubhouse, which meant by the time I got back I was starving and looking forward to my sand wedges

Played here middle of June. The course has undergone a major transformation over the winter, the dreaded hill has gone and is now probably the flattest in the area!! A few areas of Gur around the edges that the grass is still growing through but doesn't detract from the new course. Would highly recommend, one of the best tracks in the area now!
