Amends on Crane Watch

Greetings, last week I left not so good review. The management called me and invited me to play the course again. I wanted to say the staff was remarkable , the course is in great shape and greens outstanding and fast. I do appreciate them making this right. As old sailor “well done” Crane Watch, appreciate your thoughtfulness to make this right.

Getting Better by the Day

If you are local you know this course as one that would be fairly down the list of courses you would normally play. That being said you can see the effort that the new grounds staff is putting into the course is starting to pay dividends. U fun loop with some challenging holes that will just continue to get better. The only thing i will say is the self-governing tee sheet for when you go off can be a bit chaotic at times. Another body or two visible to the public would do them some good.

A relaxing golf day!

It's obvious that there are great improvements in the works here. Greens were good. Course was fun and relaxing for both me (novice) and my partner (20+ years playing).

Don

A little slow…..waited on most tees. Played in 4-1/2 hours. I was surprised bar was closed when we got done at 5:00. Missed out on a few of our dollars because of that!!

Poor

Course was in bad shape, tee boxes were full of weeds, the course was dry, the sand traps had some sand and the next one no sand. Greens were rough also. But, the overall layout of the course is good, but it’s not being taken care of. Overall not an enjoyable experience. Quit after 9 holes

Scammed

I was scammed into double paying, I told the pro shop lady one of our friends wasn't showing up, and she tricked me by saying that was alright, instead of just letting me know I would be charged for that. Rude staff, sketchy course overall.

Good afternoon! You were not scammed into double paying. You were charged a no-show fee for not having all of your players show up for your tee time. The policy is clearly stated in the email confirmation that you received. We are not magicians, and not in the business of tricking people. Have a great day!

Very Poor Treatment

I arrived at the course ready to play after paying for 11 A.M. Tee time. Not sure who it was but they took my clubs and drop them off near driving range as I was told to wait. After about 10-15 minutes of waiting I approached the same individual and inquired about my tee time. Received puzzle look mentioned I could probably start at 11th Tee. I declined because of the rude treatment. Never encountered such rudeness, I want be back.

A good day of golf

The benefit of course improvements is obvious. Tee boxes are green and lush, fairways are well maintained and the greens are challenging. It was a windy day which added to the excitement. Check in was easy and the staff was very friendly.

I will definitely play there again soon.

Fun course layout

I enjoyed this course between the layout and the overall length. It’s being renovated, so nothing is perfect but it’s still in pretty good shape and you can see they’re making quality improvements. I’ll definitely play here again.
