Beautiful course and layout.
I wasn’t ready for the speed and slope of greens, but I look forward to the change again.
A must play if in the area
Great course, except.....
Great course. Greens are nice and the fairways are well manicured. The only down side was the pace of play. Had a group of 4 not including the child, taking 15-20 minutes per swing. We decided to play through (hole 11) and things got intense. Oh, might I add, this is America... land of the free... As we’re on the next hole in front of this group, the alpha male of the group decides to approach us as I was about to destroy this ball. The man proceeds to confront us and then knocks our balls off our tees and tells us we cannot play through. Now keep this is mind... we’re 26 years old (fit) and he’s roughly, 50? (Unfit) Not today pal. Since this man clearly owns this course, we’re not having it. We continue playing, wishing this old man would come back, but does not. End of story.
Par
Nice course. Well kept. Bar staff needs help. Pro shop is solid and fairly priced. Overall B+
Seeing Arnies name always cool.
In the top 2 on the East Side of St. Lou
I play this course often because it’s a great Palmer design and today it was in the best condition that I’ve seen it in a long time. It’s half the price as the next best course in the area, and in many ways, I like it better. The Zoizia fairways are plush and no houses to hit if you let one loose (lol). Greens are bent grass, large, easy to hit, and roll true, with fair amount of undulation to make it fun.
Great course
Course was in great shape, one of my favorites to play.
Overall decent course, but another Metro Least course with greens that look like moonscapes! When will the STL bumpkin learn to repair their ball marks?
ALWAYS A FUN LAYOUT
They were running 15 minutes behind due to a corporate outing so the clubhouse guy flipped me a couple tokens for range balls. Teed off at 4:30 and never saw any other golfers except for 2 longhitters on the 2nd hole that we let play thru. The number of people that don't fix their ball marks on greens has gotten ridiculous. Not just at public courses, freaking annoying.
Great Conditions - Super Fast Greens
Spencer T. Olin has the best and fastest greens in the area.
Overall, the conditioning of the course was superb. Only issue I saw was where some standing water had been in the fairway, you will see some brown spots and weeds. For the price of under $40 (seniors) on the weekend, no one beats this value with the layout and conditioning of this course.
Great layout
Top notch facility for the price. Nice layout, fairways and greens in good shape. Very few straight putts. Challenging.
Beat up greens, but great course layout!
Coming from a st louisan driving 45 minutes to get to the course...
Pros: The course layout is one of the best around, which is why I’m willing to make the haul.
Cons: Im an early morning player and the greens were littered with unrepaired divots and debris. Despite the commute, if I’m paying north of $50 anywhere, I certainly do not expect greens to be littered with unrepaired divots and debris.
Great value
Normally worth the drive.
Today was just an off day due to something happening early in the day.
Hot Friday July 5th with a stacked tee sheet = 5:05 hour round.
I will give them a mulligan.
Pace of play is usually very good.
Course is in great shape.
People need to be reminded to repair their ball marks and be more respectful of the course.
Good customer service
