Sanctuary Lake Golf Course

I love this course. It has some challenges. The only downside is the pace of play is always very slow. There are always backups at the tees.

This course should be available for $20 all day. There isn't anything that makes it better than other local courses. It's actually just a big dump because they have exhaust pipes that let out a very nasty sewage smell throughout the course. I can't say i would recommend this course because of the price and the pace of play was terrible. 6 hours for 18 holes is unacceptable. I only played here because i had a buy one get one free. The course is very well kept and has a nice layout but the price, smell and pace of play ruin it for me.

Played this course many times in the past. Was decent up until this year. Every time we played this year the pace was very slow. Had to start out on 10 which wouldn't be a big deal normally. Started 15 min late because of over booking. 2-1/2 hour front 9 with a twosome. Tried to make the turn at 1 and there was a league lined up so we had to play the back 9 again.

Dried dirt and mud holes in the middle of the fairway. Some areas had dried dirt as big as 6 golf carts

Complained to the ranger and he gave us 2 buy 1 get 1 free passes. Won't even use them because of pace of play and course conditions.

Six hour round was way too slow. We almost quit after the first nine took us three hours. Not one ranger driving the course to speed up slow players. I will not go back.

was a second round of golf for the day golfed early in the day then after work meeting tried to get another 18 holes in but the pace of the other golfers was too slow ran out of day lite

Course today was in great shape, seems like everything on the course was cut or trimmed.
...bunkers may ;have needed a little attention.
Staff was very Friendly....start was a little anxious tho....just doing his part.
This is one of favorite courses to play, ...have to find a deal though, bit overpriced.
Staff was very friendly.

Pace of play was extremely slow. No water on the course or beverage person. There are a lot of blind shots, but that just adds to the challenge. It shouldn't take 5:30 to complete a round. I think it is slow because of the heather, blind shots and course layout. These add up to less skilled golfers taking a long time.

First off it starts in the clubhouse checking people in where they ask for all of your personal information in registering each individual that plays at their course. To be honest, it should be none of their business. This formed a line longer than I have ever waited just to pay for golf. The second line is on the first tee. Everyone going off hole #1 and no one being sent off #9 to start. It was a beautiful day that came after a few days of rain, the course was wet in a few areas, dry in others, but they enforced a "cart path only" rule which was unneccessary and slowed down play even more. 90 degree rule at most would help big time. No rangers on the course to make sure slower groups speed up, and no beverage cart person.

Many, many blind shots that require a knowledge of the course to know where to place the ball. Course in excellent condition being that it was very wet from a lot of rain the night before. Better signage on tees or at least explanation on the scorecard would help golfers know when to leave the driver in the bag and play a smart shot to the middle of the fairway but overall a challenging course in Troy.

The course was in great condition, though it rained, you could still drive around almost anywhere. The greens were a little slower because of the moisture, but this did not keep the track from being a great place to play.

No wind on the front 9 so the stench of decay was potent.
Greens were slow, not quite shag carpet but pretty sticky.
"grab and go" selections on the turn ended up being a 13 minute wait not good for keeping place of play

Overall this course is in fairly good condition considering the time of year.
My major complaint is the condition of the greens and speed of play.

I like the way it's laid out but it needs more trees . The hills are great. On hole 4 needs a lot of work like the big sand trap need some grass on the east side of it. On holes 7 and 8 needs trees to block the baseball field.

The food around the turn wasn't what I expected. I know we don't golf for the food, but they could step it up. The course needs to bloom and be cleaned up. Greens went from fast to one to airrated and bumpy on the the next. I will play course again nice open links course

Good golf course.I like play there.good condition. green and yard.

I played on a Wednesday in mid-September. The course was beautiful and well maintained. My friend and I felt like we were in Scotland going to the first hole. We're both at about a beginner-intermediate level, and we played our best games to date!

I really like this course. It has a nice layout with different types of vistas on every hole--from woods, to grasslands, and even a lake with elevation changes to boot. I highly recommend this course on a weekday, weekends are overcrowded and the pace of play slows down considerably.

Very good conditions. Greens rolled well but they are very undulating. One of my major dislikes about the course is the several blind tee sheets on the front nine. I wouldn't typically have issue with this but the cattails and wetland areas are so overgrown that you can't see any piece of the fairway on a couple holes. Also, in traditional links courses, you can typically find your ball but it would be buried in tall grass and heather; however, on this course, the tall grass is filled with scrub bushes, cattails, and tall wetland type grasses making every ball you hit a near automatic lost ball in a non-hazard. I was also disappointed in the course layout since there are several spots on the course where multiple greens and tees are jammed together making it disruptive to players on different holes while other golfers are passing, headed to their respective holes.

Great course. Plays a little slow due to the heather. Overall great place to play.

Excellent for all types of players! Green were in great Shape!
