Overbooked, fairways need haircut

Staff openly admitting they overbooked. 5+ hour round. People behind is left on tee box 2 after seeing 4 groups on the par 5. They just added people in because they didn’t block out what was booked. Fairways way too long…mow please.! Sand traps haven’t had work in a long time.

Weird day

Started as a single but eventually partnered up because of slow play by a twosome two groups ahead. Eventually it became a foursome when other people caught up. This all happened in the first six holes it was so bad and no one was around to police it. Thankfully, they left after nine and we cruised through until 17 when the cart ran out of gas. We spent more time trying to get up the hill than playing. We called and someone came out right away but still….how does a cart go unfilled before the day starts. Overall, it was a beautiful day for golf, just a few hiccups that could have been avoided by the course management.

Pros and cons

The Pros: We appreciated the course conditions, and the fact they are trying to control the Canadian geese with statues of coyotes. It seems to be helping.

Cons: the bathroom between hole #2 & #7 for women is disgusting! There is a large hole cut out of the wall behind the toilet and through there you are able to see into the men’s restroom. Totally uncalled for!! A simple board to cover this would remedy it until this can be fixed.

Nice older course

Turnberry has a real nice layout. Greens rolled nicely . it is an older course, so there is some wear and tear on cart paths. However , we played in four hours. Real nice doglegs and challenging elevation changes on par 3’s and 5’s. Good value for the money

Awful Sandtraps

The only thing I will remember is how bad the sand traps were. Thankfully I didn't break my sand wedge on any of the large rocks in the trap.

Great Course, not so much the carts

The course is really nice. The staff was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the carts are very out of date and they could use some new ones. I realize it was a busy golf day and a holiday, but the ranger was running around trying to merge people on carts because they ran out. That was strange to me.

Not worth the money

Played 18 for $75 not worth it. You would think the grass condition would be good for $75 but u would be wrong, and to top it off they didn’t have any hot dogs ready at the turn. Overall mid to low tier course save your money play somewhere else.
