PineCrest Country Club

Ultimately, this is a pretty good course. Nice layout and pretty well taken care of. However, that was ruined by the staff, who were just plain unpleasant to deal with. A couple of rangers were going around the course, and we got yelled at a couple of times for things either (a) completely out of our control, like playing too slow even with two groups ahead of us who were going at a snails pace, or (b) thinking that we didn’t know our boundaries and thinking that we could hit 450 yard drives into people further up the fairway. And it wasn’t even the rangers, even the people working the turn were sassing us. If it wasn’t as cheap as it was (a holiday on a Monday), it probably would’ve been a bit worse if a rating. Probably won’t come back unless something makes me change my mind.

I have played this course many times. Nice layout with some fun holes. Not fancy, but nice. Conditions were ok esp given drought -like conditions over the summer.

Play was unacceptably slow this day. A few slow groups ruined the round for others. After 12 holes taking too long and waiting 5-10 mins on every shot, we bolted to 18 and played it. As we finished 18 the ranger seemed to be headed to the course to see what was going on. TOO LATE.

Rangers need to be active and aware. Period.

Slow pace and no ranger. All the tee box was moved up as well.

Would be really nice if people would learn how to fix a divot

This could be a very nice course, but the fairways were full of dead spots. Greens were OK, but slow. Rough was terrible. For $72, not a good value. Other courses are nicer that cost $50-$60 on the weekend. Last time I played there the greens had just been aerated. Probably won’t go back for a long time.

Pace of play was unbelievably slow. Heard they may have a league on Friday that just goes out and does whatever they want but not certain.

No Marshall’s on course keeping things going.

We waited on every shot and were not able to finish our round due to the over crowded course. I don’t ask much but over booking is the worst thing courses can do. Greedy MFers in my opinion.

Highly unlikely I return to this course.

Condition of course was not very good either but that I can understand with the heat and lack of rain.

Some of the tee boxes and fairways need some work but over all a nice course for the money. Greens were in good shape.

Played for the first time., I only remember the HORRENDOUS pace, the group in front of us that did not let a solo player play thru for 9 holes, and the fact that the scorecard isn’t honest.

As we were about to tee off, a single player came up and said the starter said to head out. We did the right thing ( we thought) and let him go, in the hopes he would be able to continue thru the groups ahead of him. We ended up having to wait on every tee box on the front 9 because the single player was never asked to play thru. Almost a 3 hour front 9. Noticed the single player must have gotten thru at the turn. Still waited on every tee box. Talked to the ranger. He said there is a group in front of them.

Got to 14th tee. The single player was on the 17 th tee box. He said he only passed 1 other group. So, 2 groups on 3 holes ahead of us. Skipped the slow 4some on the par 3 15th. Played the last 3 holes an finished in over 5 hours.

Greens and bunkers were good. Tee boxes and fairways were hit and miss.Good or bad.. Nothing to me was average.

The scorecard says blue tees are the tips, and play at over 6300. That is simply not true. Anyone with a GPS can easily figure out Pinecrest plays only to the 6100 of the white tees posted on the card. Every single blue tee was what the white tee distance said, with no possible way of moving the back further. The whites were probably about 5500 yards at the most.

I don’t see me returning. From reading past reviews, pace of play is a constant problem. I also can’t believe no one else mentioned or noticed the lies on the scorecard. I would only recommend if you haven’t played it before, then make up your own mind. I got my logo ball. I’m done here.

Have played many times over the years and conditions of the course were as good as almost ever before.

Looks like some construction being done to the back of the clubhouse that does not affect the play of the ninth or eighteen holes. There’s a detour for golf carts when leaving the ninth green to avoid the scaffolding.

Some tee boxes need some grass and some of the greens needed some repair. But none of that affected play.

There was an outing going on but small enough it didn’t affect the round too much. Played as a twosome and shot a 72 in just over 4 hours.

How can I say anything bad.

See you again soon Pinecrest.
