Trump National Doral Miami - Red Tiger Course

For an expensive round of golf like this, I can believe I need to pay extra for parking. This is the first time I have ever paid for parking to play a round of golf. Also, golfers playing at the course didn't bother raking the bunkers or fixing pitch marks.

My golf cart kept stopping and telling me I was off the correct path even when I was on the golf cart path. It would stop and make me reverse. I would move forward and it would stop again. It absolutely ruined what should’ve been a great day with me and my friends. Course is fabulous staff was excellent.

Overall a nice course. Something different in that there are 6 par 5, 6 par 4 and 6 par 3. Short layout as well so you don’t really get to play many different clubs out of your bag. Made a couple of eagles on short par 5’s which was fun but driver/9 iron is more like a birdie on a par 4. Greens were in great shape.

Lower pricing would make this venue excellent in all categories. Staff is excellent.

Fun course to play

Challenging but mostly about control and ball placement

Great greens

The courses are nice but very expensive and especially when you then have to pay $20 to park

It is obviously a gorgeous facility with a lot going on but it is also very confusing for first time golfers. Felt a little like those playing the non blue monster course were second class citizens. There are a lot of people working but nobody really tells you where to go, took a long time to get a cart then had to ask about going to the tee then nobody was running the tee so some were going out as twosomes rather than 4somes. The red course is a good track with lots of water and very difficult. One thing that bothered me on the way out was when I got there they basically told me I had to valet because the parking lot was so far away(which it wasn’t) and then when I was ready to go I waited for a long time after I paid the $32 valet charge which wasn’t mentioned. Never paid to park to play golf but learn something new everyday.

Condition of course was great.

However, beyond pace of play issues and no cart service because they were “busy” (I mean hey, we are all busy…) one of the restaurants is closed and prices have significantly increased. Sleepy Joe like increases. Also, parking costs have increased 60% from last month. I mean, 32 bucks to park for a round of golf? Ridiculous. Or, hump your bag a half mile. Let’s work on making valet parking rates great again….for the consumer. Not 45.

Other than that, good as usual.

Everything was first class. Some of the best and fastest greens I've putted on. Highly reco.
