Poor redesign of 17 and 18

Your 17 hole was wonderful but unsafe at the 18th tees. If you redesigned the lake to have a island 17 hole green then the 18 tee would be safe and be left as it was. This would make a fantastic 17 par 4 hole.

construction

I booked a round, forgetting that much of the back nine was torn up for changes. And the fees are the same as if the course was in great condition. Not as satisfying as I had hoped, as the greens were not very good or consistent either.. I personally will now not go back until I find out construction is over.

Very disappointed in the condition of the course. Too much going on at one time. Will not be playing again until they finish all the projects they started months ago.

Nice. Enjoyable.

A wonderful day out. The course is having some work done In one hole. There are a few weeds in the greens which will be sprayed it otherwise removed. None of this affected the great experience. I will definitely be back. There are comments about conditions here but at this date they did. It bother us at all: Minor issues that are being addressed.

Just book it !

Very Pleasant Surprise

The course is well structured and we can see some redevelopment of some of the holes. We loves the new and the legacy landscaping.

The course could use some improved distance markers and the greens had a few weeds in them - but i suspect they are about to attend to those issues. They are doing some big changes around 15/16/17 holes so they are spending big.

We loved it and will be back. We had a great time.

9 am on a Tuesday 3 hour 18 holes

Great pace on a Tuesday morning 9am. Great layout and really nice greens. Some course construction on 17 and the green is makeshift on the end of the fairway. I will be back soon!

Conditions

Overall this is a good course. I think when 17 & 18 are finished the course will be very good. But I think taking both the 17 green and 90% of the 18 tee boxes out was a mistake. It left no proper finishing 2 holes to play.

Bad

I feel when a course is going thru a major change it should be noted to give the players a choice to want to play or find another course to play. Conditions weren’t great I’ve seen this course in way better condition. Couldn’t play the front 9 at all had to play the back 9 twice which had a non green on 17 in middle of fairway. For the $41 charge it should have cost $12. But hopefully this course gets back to what it was before now.

Annoyed

The course has renovations going on. Our problem was that were stuck behind a fivesome playing very slow. With the front 9 closed because it was wet. We paid for 18, played 9 n left annoyed.

Toms Review.

Course wasn’t in very good shape. Looked like the greens were air rated about two weeks ago, were bumpy and super slow. Received an email after I played that they are transitioning to a new course superintendent and they apologized for the condition of the course. I would hold off playing this course until it is in better condition.

Good afternoon, We are in the transition of superintendents. In the process the golf course has suffered. We would like to invite you back for a free round, we do not want you to leave with the impression that this is how we do things here at the Crane Watch Club. We hope to see you soon.

Needing TLC

The course had fallen on hard times. Fairways are full of weeds and several of the greens are so patched they are almost unplayable.
