Excellent Winter Golf

Course was in good condition, I'd say better than most given the time of year. Some of the bunkers need to be improved.

Great course, great fun!

Joe, The Cobra, returned to Royal Oaks yesterday to renew our friendship with one of our favorite courses. Though cool and windy, we both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves..one complaint, and one only. Someone needs to teach the resident geeze to flush after doing their business. Holes 15 and 16 were not so pretty. We WILL be BAAAAACK!

Nice fairways and greens

Fairways and greens were in good shape. Bunkers were in bad shape. But I understand from local player this has been the case for years. The course lay out was nice with longer yardage and fairly challenging greens. Course pace was great!

Pace of Play

Went out Saturday morning as a single, and got paired with another single. There was a twosome in front of us, and a threesome in front of them. We had the standard wait here and there on the front 9 on the fairway, no big deal. Then came the 10th. All three of our groups were on the tee box together, and my twosome waited over 10 minutes to tee off on 10.

Things seemed to pick back up, until the 13th. Between finishing the 12th hole and teeing off on 13 we waited 20 minutes. Again, we were on the tee with both groups ahead of us. Apparently there was a large group (20 or more) from out of state in front of all of us slowing down play. Never once did any of us see a marshal on the course, and over the last 6 holes, we waited on every single tee box due to groups far ahead of us. All told we had a 5 hour round.

This course is a fun, well put together track that I would enjoy going back to again. But if it is going to be a 5 hour round, I won't.

Nice layout

Some cart paths & ball washers need some work. Tee boxes, fairways & greens great. A must play course.

Bunkers are horrible

Bunkers have dirt in them. No sand. Many are being converted to grass. Pretty sad shape. Won’t go back anytime soon.

Always a fun course!

Royal Oaks is a class act. Better conditions than most public golf courses. When you walk into the club house you realize that these folks want to provide you with a top notch golf experience...they succeed. Pace of play was excellent...we played in about three hours with no one slowing us down or pushing us. Most golf courses could take a page out of their play book and follow Royal Oaks' example. The greens and fairways were beautiful! The rough was penal but fair. Overall, a great round of golf!
