Lack of Communication

Regularly play this course, booked to play 18 holes and upon checking in was told that I would have to play the back 9 twice due to a members/guest tournament.

Good course, but needs some mowing

Cimmarone is a challenging course, but made more so with extremely high rough. Grass was so high & dense my group probably spent 30 min of the round hunting for list balls. We knew where the balls went, but almost had to step on them to locate. This slowed pace of play dramatically.

Also, greens were very fuzzy & slow almost like brillo pads. If maintenance team trims rough a bit & greens, the course will greatly improve.

Greens are under repair

The course overall was in nice condition. But the greens were under repair. Sand covers every green. I know they are working on them, which is great! But we should have been told before booking. Very disappointed they there was no mention of the condition of the greens. To spend over $55 and not been told is not right.

Great round

Course was in great shape, greens had recently been plugged and sanded, but still rolled pretty true, just a little slow.

No one told us they just aerated the greens

The aeration on the course should have been stated when we booked paying over $50 to not be able to putt is horrible !

Beautiful course! Disappointed with communication!

The amenities and clubhouse were beautiful. The fairways were beautifully kept. The only issue I encountered was the fact that 7 days out on my booking date there was no mention of future maintenance. The greens were covered in a thick sand and had been freshly punched which completely ruined what should have been a wonderful golf outing. They had been punched on 7/30 and there was no mention online 7 days out. We also received no discounted rate. Just not a great first impression.

Cimarrone is in good shape

If you have not played Cimarron in a while, you should definitely give it a try. The courses in very good shape and well-maintained by the attendance. The prices seem like a very good value for the quality of course available.

Very slow greens

Overall the course was in fairly good condition. The greens grass was long and thick. Almost as thick as fringe on most courses. probably the slowest and bumpiest greens I have ever played. I expected more for the price. I played this course a couple years ago but I don’t remember the greens being this bad. Overall we had a good time. Tee to green was a lot of fun

Re: Pretty much a cart path only course.

They use “Commukarts”. The carts could totally die on you for no good reason in places you would never expect. Then you get stuck. Holds up the game. I don’t have patience for that. Finally on one hole I just took my bag off the cart and carried it. Second, the sprayer guy on the tractor sprayed lawn chemicals right around me when I was playing and I was down wind. Bad taste in my mouth and nose irritation the rest of the game.

A fun round!

I enjoyed the layout, and the course was in good shape tee to green, for a mid-priced public course. The greens however were in the later stages of repair, probably from fungus of some sort (the course we played just down the road also had a good bit of damage to their greens).

Much better than last time I played here

This course was in great shape and is always fun to play. The greens were very slow and so was the pace of play but we had a great time and will definitely be back!

Nice course…not so much everything else!

First off Tees, Fairways and Greens are in great shape other than 3-4 that they’re working on. Bunkers are not in great shape as they’re being redone.

Now the bad…Pace of play was horrible 5 1/2 hours tee times are too close together and starting off with a par 5 doesn’t help causing an immediate backup (we teed off 20 minutes late already at 9:30 am)

Beverages/Snacks…Nothing was open yet at 9:00 so ZERO options!!! Never saw a cart girl until the 9th green! We saw her only once again on the 17 hole! Unacceptable for a Saturday morning when it’s

90°+ out!
