a very good course under poor management

I have played this course many times over many years. The course is great but the new policy is appalling

When I checked in an hour before tee time, the front desk told me since I get a discount deal, I cannot check in before half an hour before tee time! I have never heard of such a policy ever in any golf course. But the staff other than the front desk were excellent including the starter, guys that helped with loading and unloading the golf cart.

I used to played here often, but the new green fees posted on the web are way out of line with other comparable courses nearby, especially compared with rates offered to residents by other courses. Imagine playing at a much cheaper rates at Classic Club , a much higher level course 10 minutes away!

Money were spent in areas irrelevant to attracting customers like sofas and huge mirrors in the club house. The first thing they have to do is to make their visitors feel welcome , by having friendlier front desk staff!

Disappointed

Burgers were under cooked and staff was was not friendly. Booked for four players but one guy didn’t make it because his flight was cancelled. They still charged for four players. Too many great courses around so we’ll avoid this place in the future.

A hidden gem

I haven’t played this course because everyone knocks it. But not true at all the greens were fast, great tee boxes and fairways. Not hard but sneaky with a lot of water and sand traps. Worth it and I will be back

Great Value

For $80 it was worth every penny!

Not a difficult course but has enough water and sand hazards to keep you focused. Staff excellent!

A disappointment

It is a Gary Player signature course, so I expected an interesting and challenging layout. Instead, I found the front nine boringly simple. There is no rough. The fairways are wide. The greens are flat. Every putt is straight.

The back nine looks and plays like it was designed by another person. Many of the greens were protected by bunkering and water. The run-ups weren't all flat. Much more interesting.

However, what is a killer in my opinion is the bunkers had dirt instead of sand. I was told the wind often blows sand out of the traps, but I've played courses where they use a heavier sand to combat that problem. On top of that, many of the bunkers were not maintained well.
