Nice course - speed of play??? Need Ranger on course

We really enjoyed playing this course. It was in good shape and some challenging holes. However, the slowness of play made it difficult to finish the round! Two threesomes ahead of us were all over God’s creation that made it difficult to play! Would suggest that a ranger be out on the course to speed up the play.

Normally a great course

Unfortunately a few of the greens were severely damaged by some type of chemical, a couple temporary holes were created in another section of the course, and some bunkers were not managed well. Give this course another month & it'll be back to its prime. No fault with the staff...100% satisfaction & they will get these problems fixed, I'm sure

Terrible

This course is absolutely terrible just basically take your 50 dollars and toss it down the drain. 2 holes closed greens look like I took my fourwheeler and did donuts on them. This course is absolutely terrible will never play again! Do not waste your money here at all it sucks!

Worst course in MB

I've played 50+ courses in MB and never came across a course in this bad of shape. 2 holes closed, 5 greens just not playable. Tee boxes were awful, was really disappointed. Course was good 15+ years ago. Wouldnt be surprised if this was closed in 2 years.

Aberdeen is worth the money

I just played Aberdeen for the first time on 6/8. It had trained earlier in the day, so there was no roll in the fairway. The greens were slower than I am used to probably because of the rain. The course has many challenging holes and was in good shape. It's definitely worth the money and I would recommend it to people. I will definitely be playing this course again. Saw this guy on the woman's 17th tee box.

Slow play

Through no fault of the course pace of play was horrible. We were behind what was called Senior Amateur Tour, and the foresomes play on the greens was super slow. Too bad because we liked the course otherwise.

Golf Trip

What a great day. Perfect weather. The course was in great shape. I would have given it 5 stars, but some greens were inconsistent (slower). Overall the layout provides plenty of challenge and makes you make decsions. Overall the course was in much better shape than the courses we have seen on the strand.

We liked it so much we are playing it tomorrow.

Ohio vacationer

I enjoyed playing the course. It has a pretty layout. The greens were in a little bad shape in spots like they may have had seasonal problems. Friendly people. Payed on line and went right out on the course.

Needs time to return to glory

Aberdeen needs a break.. The work is showing although they just can get a break. After two floods this early summer has been cruel to this once challenging gem. Water is at a shortage and after 17 days without a drop of rain the course has seen extreme drought conditions. The irrigation ponds are at the lowest level I have ever seen. The fairways are almost bare and the greens are distressed. The greens look terrible but somehow they seem to roll fine. A testament to the hard work they are attempting to keep this course up.

Aberdeen is investing money in and it appears they are putting new greens on the Meadows course. The course will return but for now I must warn golfers to stay away. I recommend that if you are thinking about going drive in and get a quick look. If the grass is back give her a shot.

Game of 2 halves

Our 4 ball was really looking forward to Aberdeen and the first 9 the Highlands was really good, unfortunately on the 2nd 9 The Meadows was really disappointing, especially the layout, conditions and pace of play.
