Pay for 18 to play the front 9 twice?

Paid for 18 showed up to the back 9 being closed. Anyone who was playing 18 would wrap back around and play the from 9 again. Killed the pace and made the whole course a traffic jam. No cart girl, pro shop in shambles. Embarrassing “country club”.

Perfect weather
Used cart

Place is deteriorating each day

building appears in poor condition. No restaurant alleged mold and roof damage. Course layout is nice and a good challenge. Heavy rain lately and still taking that in consideration, course need some TLC. Cart paths bumpy. Weeds are over taking the bunkers. Great layout hopefully it can be given some love soon.

Not bad

It was nice to play a golf course that is a seasoned course. Not new, not owned by an investment corporation. The staff let us start off the back nine, much appreciated.

The only thing I would change is the cart paths, they are in need of repair.

Not a Country Club

90% of the tee boxes were trash, greens were rough, leaving much to be desired. Overall don’t believe the hype on their website, it did not live up to the “work they have done”!

Good Greens

Friendly staff, Brian and Colten, restaurant closed, played PM when we have sea breeze. $35 for 18 is as low (PM rate) as any course in the area. Played ball within a club length and bare spots as ground under repair. Traps not maintained post rain, best treated as ground under repair or allow grounding of club. I played Bent Tree a lot years ago, including the initial LPGA pro am. Love the layout. Storms have not been kind, many trees lost. Some sod replacement evident. Course greens fees $35-$45 in summer are reasonable value.

Still too expensive

Expesive considering course conditrions and ammenities. One or two fairways are cow pastures. Many tee boxes in terrible shape. Greens need work.

Very nice beberage cart person. But very limited. Don't ask anything of the people in the pro shop. Pay and play. That's all.

Drove here myself but can’t get a cart?

Got into the pro shop and the guy at the counter told me I couldn’t get a cart the course was covered in mud and had hella broken buildings around it. There were divots everywhere the fairway and rough were indistinguishable. The sand was super hard and dangerous to hit out of. Cart guy seemed super cool I would’ve tipped him but I couldn’t even get a cart because I’m a licensed driver and I’m a month away from 18? Overall not a good experience for the price

A Tale of Two Nines

The front nine is a nice tree -lined parkland layout and the back nine is basically a wide open links style layout. A tale of two nines. With few exceptions most of tee boxes are sand boxes. Only a few of the tee boxes have any grass in them the rest are just sandy patches of sand and dirt. No question the tee boxes need help. The greens roll well and are a little on the slower side but they roll true. The practice area consists of two nets and with green mats. Those mats are in very poor shape and full of rocks and other debris. Hard to find a level spot anywhere on those mats. How expensive can it be to replace them? The pitching and chipping green practice area is nice and something you don't often see at many local courses. The large practice putting green is kept identical to the greens out on the course so that is nice.

The pace of play was great but the course in general was average. Green held approach shots great but the greens were slow. I would play there again
