Rough greens

Considering the weather and the ongoing construction the course is really good.

The only real concern was the greens had been aerated the previous week and were still really rough.

Underrated!

Course is very underrated. Add some White Sand Fairway bunkers to frame holes and it would be awesome!.

Nice little course

It’s a nice little layout. Course is under maintenance currently but still playable. Greens have been aerated but everything was nice. Looking forward to coming back when it’s not under maintenance. Only issue is bev truck doesn’t start until 10Am and you don’t pass the clubhouse until hole 16. So make sure you bring or get your drinks before you leave

Underrated!

Course has Ton of potential. If they just added some white sand bunkers to frame some of the holes it would be an awesome golf course.

Totally enjoyed it anyway!

Worst staff of all time

Most disrespectful group of people I’ve ever delt with at any course in the world. I’ve played this course hundreds of times and since the newest staff change a few years ago I can’t stand to give them my money. It’s like you’re such an inconvenience to them by playing there. I’ve talked to several others who couldn’t agree more when I thought maybe it was just me. This is my home course, the greens crew does a great job at keeping greens and tee boxes in great shape year round. I live a quarter mile away from this course and refuse to go. It’s such a shame. Changes need to be made.

Good job of working with contractors to keep the course open.

Playing conditions are very good considering the climate conditions.

Great course. Poor staff.

I’ve played at this course at least a dozen times since it’s opening several years ago. The course is always fun and usually in good shape. But their staff, especially in the pro shop, are literally the worst employees of any golf course I’ve ever been to after playing for 25 years. They are ALWAYS grumpy, rude and stuck up. It leaves my playing partners and i with a sour taste in our mouths every time we go to tee off. My buddy and I got paired with another couple of guys on this round, and once again they agreed and actually stated they wouldn’t be coming back any longer because they don’t feel appreciated and there are dozens of courses within 45 minute driving distance with staff who actually appreciate you, your presence, and your business.

Very good value for the price.

The playing areas were very good, except the greens had been freshly crosscut resulting in some roughness.

Some out of bounds areas needed mowing.

There is pipeline construction going on adjacent to the course, but they’ve done a good job of working around it.

Overall happy with what is my home course.

We need rain!

The Cleburne golf links are always fun to play. The course is in good shape especially the greens! The layout takes you away from the clubhouse from hole 2 thru hole 15 which by itself isn’t bad unless there isn’t consistent beverage cart service. Like so many courses these days that seem to start shrinking service this course does too. Other than that Cleburne is great!

Conditions good. Average service

Course conditions were pretty good. Greens are very well maintained. But…

Kitchen wasn’t open in the morning hours. No drinks available (it’s SUMMER!). Water jugs on the course were empty. Cart girls weren’t out until after 11am. Crew not very friendly.

payment receipt

Get a receipt and check to see if they are adding others to it. Was billed for party of 8 and an unknown person, (first name Bill). Called and they collected their mistake, but if I had not requested a receipt I would have for an extra golfer. This was duplicated on the second receipt therefore I paid $33.** twice. After bringing it to their attention they did reimburse me for the difference. CHECK YOUR RECEIPT

Cool course crappy crew

Awesome course, tried for a replay after 18 through golf now. Wanted 50 a person at 4pm. Responded would love a replay for less but Whitestone is 27 after 3 and in far better condition. Staff stated then just play there or somewhere else. Ended up running up to burleson. Greens where way better, blessing in disguise. Fun layout for à couse. Long drive mad poor attitude from staff.

Receipt ------ BUYER BE WARE

I usually don't get a receipt when I use a credit card for payment as I did for this golfing trip. We were 8 players and were charged for a ninth player. The course did correct the mistake but only after I called them. I will be calling back about being charged for the carts. when I booked online the carts were included and there is a charge for six carts or my receipt.

$$$ BUYER BE WARE $$$.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the error in adding an additional player to your charges. It sounds as though our staff did correct the error for you. Our cart fees are separated from the green fee on the receipt. The total of the green fee and cart fee combined is included in the price quoted on the website. Thank you again for playing at Cleburne Golf Links and we again apologize for the extra charge.
