Good value

Tee off solo near 8am and was done before 1030...greens were in great shape and fairways also. Cart paths are terrible and gravel/broken pavement make for a bumpy ride. Great value just wish they had yardage markers from the par 3 holes.

Poorly managed course

I have played this course many times and each round gets worse. Members jump on the course at whatever hole they like and play back-to-back rounds. Combining scheduled public tee times and the fact there is no starter or ranger causes horrible backups. I had to leave my last round after it took nearly 2 hours to make it to hole 5. No one let's you play through, members are often hammered, and many fairways are still dirt. I live nearby but won't be back.

Good, Better, But....

I have always enjoyed this course. Can be difficult, but not too much so. No houses to be worried about hitting with a stray shot. Some tee shots require control, but there are enough where you can let it rip. Fairways have improved and greens are always nice. At times, the pin placements and recent mowing, make some putts trickle 20 feet past the hole. But that's what makes it fun. The only problem I have with the course, is the clientele. In the past few years, it seems a LOT of people have started playing here that KNOW NOTHING ABOUT GOLF ETTIQUETTE. They play the back tees, even though they shoot in the high 80's or 90's. They take 10 practice swings, look at every putt from 4 sides, and play as though they have a $100 riding on every hole. AND... for some reason, they don't ever think about allowing a faster group to play through. This is not the course's fault, but I do believe someone of authority should educate these people and place signage to encourage speedier play. There is nothing wrong with being a bad golfer, but there is LOTS wrong with being a slow or inconsiderate golfer. You are not the only group on the course.

Good condition

Had a bunch of twosomes mixed in between foursomes and they could have easily been paired up if starter had been working.

Great changes!

I have played Wendell over the years and it has always been a good layout but needed some TLC.

I played it this past weekend and could see that the current management is definitely making some great changes. The greens were as good as I have ever played and the fairways are looking great!

Keep up the good work!!

Take Covid Seriously

While there were some precautions on the course there was no masking by staff in the clubhouse, no distancing, no plexiglass at the counter. Nice people but Covid is real and I have friends suffering from it.

Need a full day

Pace of play really ruined the experience for me. No ranger present after the starter sends you out. Course was challenging and greens were speedy. Would go back but would plan on making a full day of it
