Fun Course

Enjoyed the day! However, a Course maintenance crew member would not move sand machine or even turn off the machine while we hit our approach shots and he continued to be a distraction as we putted out. His rudeness was not appreciated.

Other than those two distracted holes, it was an enjoyable experience.

Great People With A Course In Bad Shape

The cart staff, range staff, and pro shop staff are all delightful people to deal with. However, the course is in really sad shape. I have never seen green complexes in this condition anywhere in my life. There is almost no grass on any of the greens. There seems to be zero effort made to repair the snow damage from 16-months ago. This course is an anchor to the Glen Lakes housing area and the flagship course for Foley. It is not living up to its end of the bargain. The course is very dry, the greens are sad, and the price is way too high for all of it.

Tee boxes were hard to push in a tee

That’s really the only complaint I could come up with. It’s been very dry, so it was hard to push the tee in on the tee boxes. Otherwise, I wish prices hadn’t gone w.

This course is still great value. I can pay a lot more for this level of frustration…

Pushed

Course was fun but I felt pushed all day. Not necessarily busy, just no space between people teeing off resulting in waiting for groups to clear the green and being pushed to finish the hole. Just a jammed up course when it really didn’t need to be.

Glen Lakes Lajes Course

This course is not one I’d play again. Almost every green was unplayable Fairways were fine but greens were awful. Also the pace of play was very slow.

Cart girls

So a transfusion at the bar cost $8.50 but a transfusion on the course is $20.00

I Venmo the cart person Debra but she never shows the prices of the beverage. Only says price by word of mouth. I feel like I’m over paying on the course for beverages and being lied to

Rough shape

Played 9 holes on the Lakes course. Green are in very rough shape. Not worth the $ I paid for me and my 13 yr old son.
