Good value

I went to play at Wendell’ s on a weekend and enjoyed the course and its layout and despite the greens been recently being punched. Ball rolled nicely as they used fine sand on it. Pace of play was surprisingly good, 3:35 !

Not a value for the money

My son and I have both played this course before but we were not happy with our experience yesterday. The greens had recently been aerated, which I did not recall seeing any information about on GolfNow. And one of the holes had a temporary green setup that hadn’t even been mowed, so it was essentially just a hole cut in the middle of the “fairway”. The attendant at the grill left a little bit of a bad taste in our mouths as well, not the friendliest person ever (maybe they were just having a bad day?) Overall, just not worth what we spent, which is a shame because we do actually like this course.

No notice of punched greens on GolfNow

If it had been any other week, I would say we got the value for our money but with freshly aerated greens and overwatering, it was not. Maybe next time.

Nice shape.

Fairways and roughs in great shape. Only issue there were a few greens not in the best condition. Overall I love playing here.

Nice course to play. Easy and basically flat. Tee boxes were hard to push tee into the ground. A couple greens need attention. But for the money I’d play here again.

Tough to beat for the cost

Course is improved over past years. Greens are consistent and roll true. Not a lot of frills here, but great value for the money.

Great course!!!

Great course, and super helpful staff. Ran in to a jam with an early tee time and some rain where I wasn’t able to move my tee time and when I reached out they were able to work with me on it and find another time. One of my favorite courses to play!!

Dissatisfied

I drove to the course on Monday 31 Mar but my golf now voucher was for 2 April. I tried to play for Monday instead for 2 April but the guy at the pro shop said “you have to talk to group now. So I played on Monday because I was at the course. I believed I should have been allowed to play on Monday because the course had been paid already with the 2 April voucher. I came back on 2 April and the pro shop said the voucher did not include a cart! I did not have access to the internet but when I looked at the voucher on group now when I got home it clearly said cart included! I feel I am owed $20 bucks. I never want to play this course again

dissatisfied

I came to play on 31 Mar but unfortunately I had bought a tee time for 2 April 2025 . The person at the pro shop would not let me play on Monday because I had paid for Wed. even though the club got their money. As I had traveled some distance to get to the course, I paid for a round on Monday. I came back to the course on Wed and I was told that the golf now round did not include the cart and that I had to pay for the cart. The guy at the pro shop said that the Golf now round did not include a cart. When I look at my reservation, on line when I got home it clearly states cart Include! I feel that the cart fee should be refunded. I never want to play this course again.
