Too crowded on weekends

Don’t play on weekends, some group of golfers are just impossible. They tee from the tips and waits for ppl to get off the greens. Their tee shots are 100 yards at best and yet they tee off from the tops. This absolutely drives me insane and slow the whole hog course.

They need more rangers to speed these ppl up.They see a woman playing those guys behind us thinks am the one playing slow.. I can hit my drives long and straight splitting the fairways 95% of the tome. And yes, I play fast.

I could only play up to 12 holes CZ the wait was brutal. Please assign rangers more of them during weekends.

Got a free hot dog and I’m still mad

I have played this course dozens of times. I play 90% of my golf on golf now . It’s inexcusable to not mention that greens are being aerated. I decided NOT to play 6 other places because of aeration being mentioned in the listing .

Shame on you for thinking so little of golfers that you’d think a Hot Dog can make up for a ruined round of golf .

HOT MESS

It pains me to write this review but the truth is the truth. Had 2 encounters with Denise at the front desk. First was after we called to ask if the course was open. They are so disorganized the staff didn’t know they were open and they told us “no” they were closed. When I tried to work with Denise she offered excuses like “you probably called the florida course” and that they have been experiencing problems with the scheduling system or I can give you a bucket of balls for your troubles. Spoke to the starter that also said they had been having issues. Tried to call the GM Tim but no return call. Bottom line stress is all you’ll get at the course don’t do it!!!! So much more to add with the Muppet show but what’s the point, I think HOT MESS really hits the nail on the head. My advice play another course, mercer Oaks very nice and the staff is classy and respectful. There’s no value in being provoked by the stupid be for you play golf. Very disappointing
