Brisk round.

Course is in good shape, greens were fair and at 3pm it was a ghost town, which was awesome. Played in less than 3 hours.

Excellent Course

We played the Waterford GC yesterday, the Turnberry/Gleneagles combo. It was a very pleasant experience. The greens were excellent, moderately quick and true. The fairways were fine, too, especially considering the absence of rain in the area. One of the best features of this course is that none of the holes are the same. There are some very interesting dog-legs and the #1 and #2 handicap holes are both really interesting and challenging. With the Big Summer Card, this semi-private course was a definite value. The practice facilities were OK, although including range balls in the greens fees would have been less petty than charging for them. Although the course was busy, we still finished our round in about 4 1/4 hours. We had a pleasant, reasonably priced lunch in the restaurant. Our server was attentive and very pleasant. We will definitely return!

Worth it!

Played Gleneagles/Turnberry - both in nice shape, greens very nice, just a tad slow but very playable and hold the ball well. Gleneagles plays little friendlier and more open than Turnberry which has a bit more character. Worth the money, played in <4hrs, friendly folks/community. Wind is a factor so gauge accordingly; fun tracks tho and in good shape. Recommend.

A little mix up on our tee times but all in all it was fabulous. Plush conditions but the holes themselves were cut uneven on every hole. The tool used must have a dull edge. lost a few strokes due to the edges.

Beautiful conditions except the hole cutter had a rough edge so every hole was flawed I lost three putts due to a rough edge. Seems like an important fix for a fabulous course. I am surprised the members aren't all over it. I was told it had been a month or so this has been going on. Other than that and a little mix up with the starter It was a great experience.

Great time

Have not played this course in years. While the layout is the same the condition of the course is much better. The greens were very good ran true and seemed pretty fast compared to other local courses. Glad to see the outdoor water/ice machines. Pace of play was great played in 3.5 hours. Highly recommend
