Fun starter course

People taking up the game should be able to have a great time on this course. The more discerning golfer will find the course too wet and greens too soft. Perhaps in the summer conditions would be more demanding. They could improve by working on drainage and sanding for the wetter seasons of the year.

Amazing

This was our first time playing the west side. We always play the East side. I love the East side, that was until I we played the west side. This course is just perfect. It will be a hard choice the next time we play as to what course we will choose.

Terrible Staff and worst customer service

This course in the last 1 1/2 has taken a sharp turn for the WORSE. Last three experience have been beyond a nightmare. The staff has become complacent and really don't care about anything regarding customer service at all. I will never golf here again. No management or accountability within the staff or head golf pro. The course is in poor shape and the conditions are not maintained at all 2-3 inches of weeds on the tee boxes. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS COURSE AT ALL.

Convenient, but nothing special

The west course was not terribly challenging or memorable. It's a convenient course minutes from downtown, but the course design, maintenance, and staff leave something to be desired.

I will say that there were some members of the staff that were exceptional, but the girl in the pro shop and one course marshall left a poor taste in my mouth. That I played at Skamania the next day, where the service was impeccable, probably isn't improving the way I remember Glendoveer.

Anyway, my gripes, other than the easy course design: When showing up shortly before my tee time, I was rushing to get the the tee box asked a course marshall where the first tee was. He pointed me in the direction of the tee box and said "it's down at the end of the blue barn. You can try to make it, but you need to hurry." He wasn't horrible to me, but certainly didn't win any bonus points. The girl in the pro shop answered 2 phone calls before she acknowledged me. A simple "can you hang on 1 second while I get this" would have been nice.

I'll golf here again, but only when I'm confined to the city. Too many other courses within a short drive.

Glendoveer - West

My buddies and I played Fri afternoon and the course was busy so it took us a little longer to play but not too bad. The course is in pretty good shape, not tight but decent. The greens are slower but that is good for the people just starting to play this wonderful game. I would play again.

What happened to Glendoveer?

we used to play this course A LOT then moved to a nearby suburban city. Played it for the first time in years. New electric carts were a HUGE upgrade over the old gas carts but everything else was a disappointment. 2" weeds on the tee boxes, every tee box. Poor conditioning, poor maintenance. This is why I play Stone Creek week in and week out. Great price and excellent conditions.

The Great Wide Open

I played the East Glendoveer course with a couple of friends. It's a great course for an average golfer because it's wide open so if you spray the ball right or left on most holes you won't lose it. Had a great time and would go back and play the East again or try the harder West course.

Green in great shape

Overall the course played nicely. The greens were in great condition, with nice speed. It was fun to set up for a certain break and speed and know that the green would be rolling true.

Disappointment at Glendoveer

Slow play with no marshal to speed up the 4-some of slow ladies a couple groups ahead of us. The drink cart girl NEVER was seen once during our whole round. We had to run to the pro shop to get beverages. We eventually spotted her tucked away, parked hidden from players near holes 11 and 12 talking on her cell phone. Could have sold more cold drinks if she was doing her job!

Overpriced

If ya gotta pay 37.00 for 18 holes. The green sleepers (keepers) should at least change holes each day. It seemed that the cups had been in the same location for at least 3 days. Over a weekend I imagine that course is heavily played, and each cup was battered, bruised, and heavily walked on near the holes obviously.
I watched at least 20 putts in our group bounce out of their line as they approached the hole, as well as putts that would normally drop, lip out due to them being so worn out.
Don't charge that much if your not gonna maintain decent playing conditions.

A nice afternoon

We had never played the West before. We had played the East once. The west is rated much lower and is much shorter. Perfect course for the wife, especially the front nine. The greens are very large and were in very nice shape, especially considering the play they receive. A bit bumpy and need to be rolled, but not bad at all. The bunkers were in poor shape and inconsistent in sand, some were literally hardpan. We played as a threesome with two walkers, played 19 holes in 3.5 hours…. not bad at all. Yes, 19. We screwed up on 12 and skipped to 17 and replayed 12 and found our way. The back 9 is quite hilly, you will burn some calories if walking. A metro course and is quite noisy, something we rural golfers are not used too.. sirens and such. We had a nice time though. I recommend the course for beginners and couples.

Great shape

The course is in beautiful shape - the best I've ever seen it - especially for a public course. I haven't played here for a few years and had forgotten how steep the hills are, especially on the front 9 of the East Course. The hills are not a problem to play, but are challenging to walk, especially if you are over 50 or so. (Or younger and in less than good shape.) That's the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. Play here, but get a cart. Unsure about the West Course, haven't played it for some time.
