Lomas Santa Fe Executive Golf Course

I play here a few times a month. PAce of play and conditions are consistent. Staff is nice and prices are fair. 3 hour executive 18.

Fast little exec course. 2.5 hours to get through the course with 4 people. Easy to get to, fun to play.

You can hit everything from driver to putter here but it’s primarily a great short game course. I wish the players would repair ball marks as the only thing this course has against it is a few greens that are minefields from unrepaired ball marks. Not much the staff can do about that and the other 99% of the course is in great shape. Play moves along well as you would expect from an executive course.

Several people behind us left. Slow group of 4somes in front celebrating bday per pro shop. Marshal/Ambassador not much help.

Short course with beautiful views. Great place to work on the short game. No frills. No worries.

Great walk, we’ll maintained course.

I play golf 7-15 times/month and this is one of the worst places I've come across. This place has some of the worst staff in the county who are dishonest, petty, and miserable. I last played here 8/31/21 after trying to make it work with their oversold $30 membership.

Since 8/31, I've played a total of 35 rounds with yesterday, 1/26 being my first time returning to Lomas.

Things started well, as one of the staff who has given me a hard time in the past was actually very kind. I played my round, shot my score, and stopped by the pro shop to discuss my membership status as i had paid for my round through GolfNow.

I have 4 or 5 different memberships and they all come out automatically. Lomas lost that privilege with me during 2021 when they charged me 6 membership fees in 4 months, so the card used for them is off by default. The overcharging was eventually sorted out, but yesterday put the icing on the cake.

Upon inquiring about my membership, I was told it had fallen behind. Again, no surprise as I hadn't been to Lomas in almost 5 months. I will say maybe I should have officially paused the membership, but membership is moot when the staff seems intent on starting your round off bad and overcharging for memberships.

The young man told me I owed 2 months worth of membership to get reactivated. I said "okay, sounds good." The young man then went to a back room and verified with his 'manager'? Upon returning, he said "yep, it'll be the $60 to get you going again." I asked the young man to charge the card on file to which he laughed and said "it's been declined 7 times bro." This isn't surprising to me as I turn cards off all the time, but I play along and produce another card. I swiped my card and couldn't believe what came next.

As soon as the card was swiped, the young man tried to charge ANOTHER $30, and have me begin a whole new sign up. 1 month memebrship is $30, so this idea would have me pay 3 months to get ready to pay for next month.

This is nothing short of dishonest and disrespectful and has inspired this review. Since my first round here in April '21, this staff has not learned how to treat other humans and it's really quite sad. With the membership this place is $10/round and I still couldn't bring myself to come in 5 months.

I understand it is an executive course but way too many <100 yard par 3’s . I will say it is nicely maintained and scenic but once in a while you want to hit your long irons for a challenging par 3. There are other executive courses in the area that are more challenging.
