Lots of improvements from years ago!

The greens were very good, but lots of bad areas in fairways- looks like they are doing lots of improvements though- keep up the good work. Will want to play it again

Everything closed when we finished at 3 pm- would like to be able to get a little snack or something to drink!

Goat Ranch

This course is the definition of a goat ranch. Rude staff, no bar, no driving range. No thanks.

Course Conditions Poor

The course conditions were very poor. Greens were horrible, many burnt-out and bare spots. The price was cheap but I have played this course several times before in prior years and the course was in good condition. It is in terrible shape now.

No restaurant

Green some good some not

Tee boxes need of a lawnmower

Fairways need grass

Enjoyable!

Yes, the conditioning is a little on the shabby side, but it requires skill to position the ball off the tee in order to have a clear shot into the smallish greens. The low fees, great staff and perfect weather made our first round in five months thoroughly enjoyable!

Good value

Course was obviously immaculate in it’s day. But seems neglected now. It needs some TLC but is priced right in the interim. A few greens were very nice and others were not so healthy. Hardly anyone out there so pace was good.

Clubhouse has no amenities. Staff was friendly.

Narrow fairways. Holes are all renumbered due to renovation. So your gps watch is worthless. No reflectors on flags so laser finders won’t work either. Most holes have a plaque at 100 and 150. Only a few sprinklers are marked. So all yardage is guess work.

Good value for the money

Good Value

Course was in good shape….only a couple greens and fairways were not the best. Little odd layout, because the development is under construction to add housing. The work does not impact the quality of the holes, its just the sequence of holes played. Your GPS will not work and there is no driving range.

What’s going on

The club house was empty, wasn’t sure if they were out of business or what? Inside staff personnel were very nice and helped us understand the course layout. NO starter.

Friendly staff at Bluewater

We acknowledged that it was our first time at the course and the staff took extra time to make sure that we knew how to get to hole 1 which is sone distance from the clubhouse. Then he brought the cat to our vehicle for us. The course was in good shape for end of winter and we enjoyed the layout. We'll be back next February.
