Bent Tree Country Club

Course was in good shape, staff was friendly and overall we had a good day of golf. Amenities are a bit dated or just lacking like no driving range or restaurant. You can see that this place was probably pretty great in its hayday but it's gotten a bit tired. Greens were quick, fairways and tee boxes were good. We would definitely play again but probably wouldn't rush to do so and would have to consider price first. We paid $50 each which was decent for the course and time of year I'd say.

Was looking forward to playing this course, not just for the unique and challenging layout, but mainly because it would be the first time taking my son out for a round.

Upon arrival, staff was friendly and accommodating. Nice pro shop for a public course.

Once we got to to first tee, group in front of us were going at an average pace (which was fine from our vantage point). Hit from the white, and son hit from red. We played best ball and I had a solid first drive. My son dropped by my ball and we both chipped just shy of the fringe.

By the time we were lining up our next shot, the Marshall was telling us to pick up the pace because the elderly folks behind us were already complaining.

I am always very conscious of my pace of play (especially with my son being a first time golfer). But this was very uncalled for and it would only get worse throughout the front 9. I would have gladly let them play through if they were that irritated, but it was explained to us by the Marshall that they were a part of a tournament and wouldn’t be able to pass us.

Honestly, very disappointing for a first time out on this course. I still gave the club 3 out of 5 stars primarily for the layout and some of the staff. However, in the future, I think management needs to consider how to handle situations like this in a more appropriate manner. Maybe spread tee times out an additional 5 minutes depending on which color tee’s will be played. Or don’t schedule public play when a tournament is right on their heels.

I was a single golfer that paid for two as my brother road along not able to golf because of a back injury. Both times I golfed I caught two foursomes after 4 or 5 holes and they refused to let me play through. Very discouraging as I golf 50-60 rounds a year in new york and golf etiquette is always followed...the course was very nice. They need a marshall!

Amazing that they charge what they do. Bunlers are atrocious, fairways soggy in numerous areas,and the fact that there is no discount for walking. The rates are also on the way up. Sayonara.

Great place to play!

The course layout is great! I wish they could update and reopen the bar/restaurant. It is a great place before and after a round of golf.

Love the layout of the course - lots of fun. Lots of work to be done to get the course back in shape after hurricane. Still lots of down trees; no sand but mud in the sand traps, tee boxes need work. Beautiful day so we still had fun.
