Valleaire Golf Club

Tee time 12:40pm finished 18 holes 7:30pm.

Terrible!!!. Never more!!!!.

Ridiculous organization, 9 holes took 4,5 hours, still waiting for second nine!!!!.

Do not play anymore!!!.

Starter was curtious and wanted to help me when it was pretty slow on the front nine. Had me go on back nine. I appreciated it. Met up with two other singles and we paired together and had a wonderful time. Slow at first, but the rest of the round went smoothly. Starter did excellent job!

Booked my tee time through GolfNow, then called to add my father, who is a senior, to my grouping. Explained to the booker that my wife is 36 weeks pregnant, so I prefer to not play with strangers to limit COVID exposure. She said it would not be a problem for us to go off as a twosome.

When my Dad got to the course, they charged him a senior rate and a DOUBLE cart fee, telling him that my online booking doesn’t include a cart fee (which is incorrect) and being rude about it. Still, Pops paid almost 50 dollars...

Then the starter informed us that my Dad and I would be going off in separate groups. I explained to him that I had spoken to someone when booking the tee time and was assured my Dad and I would be going off together as a twosome. The starter got an attitude, so to calm/fix the situation I explained that my wife is heavily pregnant and I am trying to limit exposure and that the booker assured us that it wouldn’t be a problem, to which he said “WHAT DO YOU WANT? THIS IS A GOLF COURSE. WE ARE JAMMED WITH TEE TIMES.”

I then assented to going off as a twosome, and when he came back to tell us that the other two of the foursome cancelled anyway, I told him, “Listen, I wasn’t trying to be difficult, but my wife is very pregnant and I’m concerned for my family.” He replied by saying, “We’re a golf course, we can’t help that you’re wife’s pregnant.” WOW - so I took a deep breath...

So after all the rudeness and overcharging, it was time to hit the course. Well - they had overbooked leagues and tee times, and golfers were not keeping pace of play. So it took us 4.5 hours to play 13 holes! At that point, my Dad and I were both mentally fried from the slow pace and the mistreatment by staff and I said, “Enough’s enough - I’m done; I’ll go in and say something...”

But when I got in the clubhouse, I waited more than 5 minutes and nobody showed up to help me. So, I went on GolfNow and figured I’d share my experience.

This is a pretty golf course where you can really score — just don’t expect them to be courteous, organized, maintain pace of play, and act respectably.

What a joke. I’ll never spend another DIME here, and I’ll be sharing my experience with friends and fellow golfers.

After we paid for our round, we were told by the starter we would have to wait until leagues teed off on both nines. We had an 8am tee time and we told the starter we booked the round to zip around the course.. we teed off at 7:50am and completed the first nine holes by 9:05. We had to wait almost 30 minutes to tee off on hole 10. So much for our fast round. I went in and asked if we could get a rain check. The woman told me it wasn’t raining so why would we need a rain check. I told her leagues would hold us up., They would have given us a rain check but when they saw we booked on Golfnow, they told me to contact you. I asked the starter if we could skip ahead of the league and come back and finish the holes we skipped but the starter told us we couldn’t do that. I had to go to work so I only got 16 holes completed. I had to leave to go to work. I will never play this course again.

Complete chaos at first tee for a Friday morning. Zero organization slowest round of the summer

Price, staff, greens all excellent. Pace of play very poor, but it's like that everywhere now with the Chinese Virus-everyone is golfing. Loved it and will be back!!
