Not the same course as it use to be!

Played Centennial many times in the past, have not played Centennial in about 10 years! This course has gone massively downhill! Obvious that they are in financial difficulty, no money is being put into the golf course! Poor conditions compared to what it use to be! Very disappointing, this was a nice course and is still a nice layout but the course conditions, cart paths, lack of water given to this golf course has taken it’s toll. So surprising how far this golf course has fallen!!

Good course but

For that kind of price per round. One would expect toilets for males and female on course. Instead there’s a portable toilet close to club house. Sorry but not good enough. Otherwise great course.

Great course layout

Like the caption says, Centennial has an amazing layout. Several lofty tee boxes with views of rolling hills.

Finally got to play a full 18 holes

When I lived in the area, I was only able to get on the course after work. Was never able to get a full 18 in. Finally have.

Although the greens were just aerated, greens in great shape and once healed, those greens will be great shape. Fairways were in nice shape, I made sure to fill all my divots, can't say about other people. Only had one hole where divots played a factor, I got lucky not to have my ball come to rest in one. Some tee boxes need to be addressed but they are playable.

Staff are friendly and accommodating. I had a great time.

A Golf destination that makes for a enjoyable golf day

When you arrive there’s a country club feel. At golf bag drop off you are greeted by a friendly professional assistant and hat takes your bag and puts on golf cart and drives it to golf course range for you .

It has a premium pro shop and often greeted by Head Pro Scott that always has a warm welcome. Has fantastic range and practice facilities to warm up and get ready for your round. There’s 3 , 9 holes making for a variation each time you play your 18 holes . Larry Nelson was the golf course designer. The course is challenging but yet fair with mixture of long and short holes. Once you play at Centennial you will keep going back. Oh also great pub to have a drink with your buddies or new friends you make on the course.
