First round at this course
Arrived early and our twosome managed to get out ahead of a large group. Although we were positioned behind a threesome and foursome, we managed a 4.25 hour round. Fairways and greens were manicured and the perimeter of the course was beautifully landscaped. Staff terrific and we will definitely be coming back.
I love this course and always play it when I am visiting here.. Everything is good except pace of play. We quit after 9 holes because the threesome in front of us was very slow.. Maybe a ranger to monitor the course would be good.
Overall good experience
Good pro shop, friendly staff, and the overall course conditions were good. Some greens had more divots than others, but that probably is due to lazy/inconsiderate players not repairing their divots.
Good choice
A variety of hole layouts , well groomed sand traps and small ponds/lakes & streams. But not so many to require precice placement of tee shots.
The greens are subtly undulating and in great condition.
Did not use the clubhouse .
Pro shop employees were friendly.
Greens
Greens did not roll evenly, lots of ball marks. This can be fix easily by the maintenance crew when they roll the greens in the morning. The remainder of the golf course Washington on very good shape.
Very good condition but a bit wet considering all the rain over the weekend.
You make a mistake I reserved for two pay for two and you take for only one we must to play after the tee time we supposed
Pembroke Lakes golf club
So a very good surprise. Golf course in really good Shape ,excellent greens.
Very friendly staff, restaurant and bar.
I will play again at Pembroke.
Soft but good conditions
Course is in some marshy terrain. You end up using a lot of divot sand. Greens are peppered with ball marks but seem to roll ok. Great layout. Lots of water. Would play again.
Fun course, great greens
Friendly staff at the proshop got us going. We were out at 7:14 so pace of play wasnt an issue. 5 tee decks to play from. Course was in great shape. Greens are undulating and have lots of character (but people need to fix ball marks better). Great mix of holes that are risk/reward, dog legs, straight. Only downside is there was coffee and breakfast available and it took about 5 minutes after our round to find someone at the bar to get a beer. Overall very enjoyable and will visit again.
Decent value
Overall favorable. Some wet areas, especially green front which was curious since the starter advised us to “run the ball up” to the greens. Nice layout; challenging but not unfair.
Joke
Made a tee time for Saturday morning. Called to confirm on Thursday the guy in the shop said he didn't see it. Just a "nope". Made us another one. Showed up another 4some had the same tee time. Sent us off the back. Place was slammed. Terrible pace. - cart said we were 40 minutes behind pace after 9. Rude staff - One of the employees was yelling at a customer for being late like he was a child. Left after 9. Paid for 18. Asked if they could offer a refund they said they don't do 9 hole rates. Seemed like this was a normal day at Pembroke Lakes. Go to Jacaranda instead. Jersey will make you a nice sausage egg and cheese wrap and greet you with a smile.
