Will not play again

Course is in terrible shape. Rock hard, could not use a wedge or lofted iron. Greens need weed killer. Entire course needs watering!

You get what you pay for!

For $25, the course was as expected; you get what you pay for! Does course condition really even matter if you are dog water at golf anyway??

Maintenance Needed

Disappointed in the conditions at Martin Downs at this time of year. The fairways and greens need significant maintenance. The bunkers need sand and grooming. Course was in much better condition in 2023 and 2022. The round played quickly at just under 4 hours - only good news. The staff are still excellent. Hopefully the course conditions will improve.

Getting better

Course is slowly improving, it is obvious the new management is working hard to bring this course back to what it once was. Workers all over course working on green and bunkers. My guess is by next year it will be greatly improved. Friendly and helpful staff, keep things moving, have played here a lot and always play 18 holes in just over 4 hours.

The greens were full of sand and not aerated.

No driving range.

Fairways were hard as a rock in need of water
