Ingleside Golf Club

While I understand that this is a public golf course, they consistently allow singles and doubles out at ridiculous times. On a Saturday morning, my 4some was squeezed in between 2 2somes, which makes zero sense. The 2some in front of us included a player that was learning to play the game. We eventually let the 2some behind us play through only to be pursued by 2 more players out playing by themselves. I feel as though the golf course needs to not allow this to happen. I should not have to allow 4 people to play through because they are by themselves. Then, last night, on a Saturday evening trying to get in 9 holes, they allowed a father/son combo with no tee time to walk the course in front of us. These 2 ended up causing a 4-5 hole backup. Combining the price and shape that the course is in (looks like a car ran through the green on the 10th), I can honestly say that I will not be returning to this course as convenient as it is for me.

One of the worst courses I’ve played in 20 years of golfing.

Played here multiple times throughout the week and no problems but as soon as you hit the weekend every rule is gone. The guy working the front desk was rude, and hung up on our call about concerns we had. They allowed a six some to play all because “they need to hit a quota.” We only made it 9 holes in 2 hours due to the 6 six some. There is many golf course etiquette rules they have but do not care what you do. The greens had tire marks on them as well as tee boxes. I do not recommend it at all, I’d rather play at Clayton park.

Ingleside Golf Club has one thing going for it - pace of play. Not a ton of people were crowded onto the course, so we were able to in general play without too much rushing or disruption. Now comes the tough part - the actual course. We read a review that said the course was not well maintained, including tons of goose excrement on the course. We thought this was a raging lunatic who had it out for the course, but we were wrong. There were geese and the byproducts of them everywhere. The rough was completely overgrown to the point where it made it impossible to play. The tee boxes had weeds and the grass was almost like it didn't exist, it felt like we were playing on straight up dirt. The course layout didn't make any sense, most specifically on the back nine where some holes were intermixed with one another, making it extremely difficult to determine where the fairway was for one hole against another that was earlier on. One hole was even just a 50-70 yard drop, you had to walk up stairs to even get to the tee box. Overall, I do not recommend this course even though it's cheaper than some of the others. Even with the lousy conditions, we had a rain check from several days prior and the worker gave us a tough time on them because his co-workers messed it up and only gave us credit for part of a game instead of the full game by accident. I do not expect to come to Ingleside again and will instead be going to other courses that are more scenic and fun to play like Kimberton and Spring Hollow.

Every course has some goose droppings but this course takes it to a whole new level. There are some fairways so covered in goose sh¡+ that there’s no way to hit your ball w/o getting it all over your clubs, shoes, and the ball. It could be a great course but for the value; I’d suggest playing anywhere else.

Below average course. Okay tee box, terrible fairways, somewhat playable greens.

Pace of play was great. Fairways were great. Green’s rolled smooth. 5100 yard creates some great scoring holes from the blues. All skill levels

It was more of a Golf Now issue we bought the teatime as a hot deal but the courts charged us and additional unexpected $34 for a cart fee

No need to use driver, especially on the front 9. First 3 holes are in pretty rough shape, but the course gets better as you come around the turn.

The course was actually in pretty great shape, greens all looked good, bunkers could use some sand but otherwise nice, that being said the pricing has gone up a lot. Last year you could play for around $30 per player with a cart. Now it’s $35 plus 17 per person, not per cart, so 2 people sharing a cart and they both pay $17, what!? In what world does that make sense!? You pay a cart fee not a per person fee. I’ve never seen this before so it came to about $50 per person to play ingleside on a Sunday morning! I mean wow! That pricing puts them in a tier with a lot more VERY nice courses and ingleside is ok but it’s just a nice local short course. I was just blown away by the pricing Increase and insane cart charges.

Big open fairways and fun course to play with your buddies. Some tee boxes are uneven ground and course layout is a little confusing especially when walking the course. Greens were very well maintained with few imperfections. Would very much recommend riding instead of walking.

Instead of a review, I have a few recommendations for the course. The bunkers need to have more sand, and they need to be raked or hit with the SandPro in the morning. A lot of ground under repair that should be priority number one. I think the halfway house Should get back up and running. That side of the course has no relief or break. The greens need to be better maintained, even if new grass sod needs to be laid on some of the greens that are damaged or have fungus or other growth on them.

I think $12 is a little steep to charge for the range for 30 minutes, especially if I can’t use my driver because it’s only about 240 yards long, and the balls are not good quality.

I don’t mind that it’s short course, but there is very little difference between the blue and the white tees on a lot of the holes. We weren’t told there was going to be a temporary hole in that hose six was going to be shut down. That caused confusion for the group ahead of us, our group, and the group behind us.

The fairways are in good condition, and the rough is a good length. The water adds a challenging touch, but the overwhelming geese population could probably be handled to make a better experience on the tee boxes and greens, and Along the water in the rough and fairways. The tee boxes were maintained well, and the course is clean.

Paid greens fee in advance online and receipt said greens fee plus cart, if available. We were actually planning on walking, but when we got there, carts were available. But, only one bag per cart, so we got two. Charged me an additional $34, which all things considered, would have knocked this course out of the running for play. No score cards, a temporary green, no food or drink all made this an awful value for the money. Golfers starting anywhere they felt like, tons of singletons jammed up the course, when there was no reason for it. Do NOT play here until things have gone back to normal. You WILL be disappointed.
