Poor greens

As beautiful as this course was tee to green, I wouldn’t play it again or recommend it to anyone AT THIS PRICE based on the damaged conditions of the greens. Most of them were pretty much unplayable. Any putt that happened to bounce in was luck.

That said, the staff other than the course maintenance guys were extremely friendly.

Overpriced for poor conditions

We got a “great” deal at just over $310 for our foursome.

This course is HARD! We are reasonably decent golfers and even with the altitude helping us out, I only shot 80.

The fairways are great but condition of the greens is abysmal. For the price paid, we’d expect much better conditions. We have better greens at our local Par 3 dog track.

Obviously there’s not much competition in the area, but we will leave our golf elsewhere. Don’t need to return here.

Total waste of money and time

Maybe on 2 of 18 greens in DECENT condition. The rest could not be putted on. Te greens were a combination of dirt, sand and chunks of missing grass. Extremely slow play with no Marshall. Group in front of us was 2 holes behind. Play the course in Bishop. Don't bother with this over priced vcourse

Sierra Star greens are terrible

Patchy, sandy and bumpy greens really took away from my enjoyment of my round at beautiful Sierra Star. The bunkers have no rakes and not much sand either. There were no rakes.The course. should be in prime summer shape, which is usually stellar at high elevation (and high priced) golf courses. Come on Sierra Star!

Good course layout, great staff, greens are iffy

First time on the course and everything was excellent except the greens and bunkers. A handful of the greens are just not fit to putt on right now (and our starter did let us know beforehand). Bunkers are also pretty thin and somewhat rocky. Overall I’d go again but only if I can get a discounted rate

Great views! Fun course!

This course has its narrow areas but all in all very nice with great views. Some greens are still recovering from winter but for the most part very well taken care off

Great Course-Horrible Greens

Unfortunately; early snow melt caused the greens to become dirt. Not all greens, but enough that putting isn’t recommended…auto two putt. Oh, no rakes for any of the sand traps.
