Camas Meadows Golf Club

I hate to leave a bad review after a good round of golf course layout was great and the greens were in good shape. They were actively mowing the fairways/rough during my round thou witch seemed odd since it's a Friday I had a late morning tee time several times the greenskeepers would be directly where we were intending to shoot or they'd stop and literally sit almost in front of the flag blocking our shot leaving us no room but to go over and long or risk hitting them. On the last hole I hit a perfect shot around the trees and over the cart path my whole group watched it and confirmed it landed on the fairway but when we get to the fairway my balls nowhere to be found after a minute or two of searching i see a ball on the right in a patch of trees on a bare patch of dirt it was my ball and completely chewed up. The greenskeeper on that fairway just happened to ride by me as I picked it up and I waved it at him and he came to an abrupt stop turned off his machine and yelled what I didn't hit it. I hadn't even accused him of hitting it yet I said yah whatever you say buddy have a nice day and tossed a new ball back in the fairway and started walking to my shot but he wasn't done he kept insisting that he didn't hit my ball and that there were balls all over the place asking how I knew witch one was mine when I've been playing the same ball for the last 9 holes. He continued to try to portray his innocence while putting on a mocking tone I had to tell him to get back on his mower and get back to work just to get him to be quite and he finally did but walked over and stood where he'd be in my line of site smiling and shaking his head at me while I'm taking my shot. Truly unprofessional behavior and I most likely will not be returning if I have to spend 120$ on a round of golf just to be treated that way. You'd also expect them to be mowing either early morning or on a non peak day not on a Friday during the middle of the day.

Challenging but fair layout. Rough was a little sticky when wet

I've always liked this course especially the restaurant. I've been playing here for many years but the last five years the restaurant has turned more into a sports bar or dive bar mentality the people they hire have no problem snapping at customers if they get any kind of criticism at all it's really bizarre. The amazing part about it is Management knows about it has been told about and they seemed to be OK with it, anytime you make a complaint to them they circle the wagons and enable it to keep happening. I know a lot of people that have stopped coming to this place just because of this reason. Another thing is half the time you call them they act completely uninterested when they answer the phone, they have a bunch of kids running the show over there it's not very professional or what you would expect from a high-end golf course. I think we'll have our functions elsewhere from now on.

Very challenging course made more so in wet winter season, some parts of many fairways are very soggy, balls could disappear under floating layer of grass. The greens are still great once you got on. Waterproof shoes are a must!

It’s definitely playable now with less rain, even though some spots are still wet from previous days light rain. Greens are nice with some very slight bumps near holes that did cause some strange misses. Otherwise it’s still enjoyable but the back 9 is no longer rural, it’s urban now with all the new houses being built right up to the fence lines.

There did not seem to be a marshal on the course to push pace of play or police golf etiquette.

The group in front was playing in the protected wet lands, tromping all over, did not rake one single sand trap. Did not take appropriate clubs to the green side from their cart.

We told the starter about it and he just shrugged his shoulders.

The group was more than a par 5 behind group in front of them.

The course was in excellent shape. Requires accuracy and is a good test for any golf game .

Fun and challenging course. Long par 5s and some good redemption holes. Probably won’t walk 18 again, some of the layout makes you back track or trek a ways until the next tee box. Will definitely be back though with a cart.

Perfect weather, great track, and then paired with a couple who were not seasoned golfers. SLOW! Received a rain check for nine holes, but it was a wasted opportunity. Need to do more to monitor golfers speed.

This beautiful golf course may have a customer service problem.

An error occurred with the reservation through golfnow.com - someone else’s names were used for the tee time. In an attempt to use customer service, the desk personnel radioed the first tee person to request that the golfers be “squeezed in”. That first tee person was unwilling to make an adjustment and became argumentative with the guests. The golfers eventually joined a 4-some who’s tee time was 8am also but 2 of those golfers were a “no show”. Coincidence?

GolfNow.com’s confirmation email shows 2 golfers 18 holes @ 8am which is correct. Camas Meadows had booked that time with another name who didn’t show up. However, this request for a review indicates that the golf time was 3pm same date.

Long story short... when an error occurs with the booking company that Camas Meadows does business with, Camas Meadows has the obligation to its guests. The team members should communicate effectively and not declare to the guest that he won’t be helping out this morning and ask the guests to review his schedule and decide just how he should “squeeze them in”.

I cannot imagine choosing Camas Meadows golf course for a birthday gift again. I heard it was beautiful, though.

Camas Meadows is only playable in the summer because of poor drainage. So we played today in mid-August and found February conditions because of tons of water dumped on the course every night. I lost two balls in the fairway because of plugging....water standing on the course....mushrooms growing around tee boxes and on fairways...ridiculous. Will someone clue these people in that in summer it should PLAY like it's summer?

Very good course played with Marshall name Greg. Very enjoyable to play with . Course in very good condition. Would recommend to everyone. Greens were slow but been dry for awhile in Vancouver.

The distance between holes is extremely long. Patrons should be notified before teeing off and encouraged to ride.

If it wasn’t for the friendly upbeat restaurant staff, we would not be playing here again. The pro shop staff is not friendly, like not even a little bit. My buddy just spent $15K on a wedding last summer and all they wanted to give us was a free cart? And the caviat was, we had to prepay ahead of time for the green fee in order to get the free cart. No thanks Camas Meadows!

I was prepared to walk, but when I saw the vast majority taking carts I didn't and was glad---there is quite a bit of walking between some holes. The best aspect of Camas is the layout. A variety of holes and tees. Some wooded holes and many water hazards. The greens, though recently punched were true, and all the bunkers were filled with ample sand. Definitely a place to which I will return
