Golfer Reviews
Fun Course, Great People!
Western Skies is easy enough for hackers, but it's maintained like a PGA course! The staff there always treat me like royalty. Five Stars! Richard R.
Very good course
Great course for golfers of any level. Affordable and fun. Greens good a bit slow coming out of overseed. Fairways in good shape. Staff are fantastic
Great Pace of Play
Really impressed with the 10 minute tee times. Full tee sheet, but never had to wait and played in 3:45. Course has come out of overseed well. While not perfect, greens were a very nice speed. Bunkers were taken care of and very playable.
Would be happy to play again.
Solid product
3rd time in the past year playing the course and it didn't disappoint. Tees, Fairways, greens all in great shape. Mulligans is pleasant with friendly staff
Course Was Perfect, Staff Were Amazing!
Western Skies is always in perfect shape, and it's a fun layout for all skill levels! But it's the staff there that make it special. They always treat me like a king! You'll like this course. Richard R.
Great course and affordable
Western Skies is great for golfers of all levels. The staff are fantastic. My only advice would be to turn the music down a few notches. It can be heard 3 holes away.
