Great golf experience, as always.

I have golfed 35 different courses in the area and University park is my favorite. Immaculte conditions, fair layout, excellent practice areas, and beautiful views make this course about as good as it gets.

Additional comments

I was pleased with the surroundings.. The hole course was nice to look at with its grooming. The course bathrooms were very clean and not smelly at all. We had a beer with one of the members we met golfing and the setting was nice.

Great course would recommend highly

Great experience from the time we were greeted at the gate until the gentleman helped me load the bags back in the truck. We were pair up with a member who was a pleasure to play with and the course was in exceptional condition.

Good, not great.

Nice course. Staff mostly OK. Ranger not so much. Had 1:15 tee time. Delayed. Finally teed off at 1:31. Play 1st hole (Par 5) in 12 minutes. Two of us made pars. Walked off green to find ranger waiting for us pointing at his watch. Didn't set too well with me, We basically waited on the group in front of us the rest of the day only to see this guy tailing us. Pace of play was fine. 4:15. His hassle was unnecessary. I rented clubs for $60 and they gave me a set with a ladies driver. Oh, no cart beverage service on the course. I suppose they thought it would slow down play. I don't drink alcohol but a water or iced tea would have been nice. I would not go back.
