Greens

Greens were just aerated and the course was wet, I'm not one to complain about that because I know what weather permits, but no one told us the course was cart path only, we noticed when we got on the fairway then drove on the dry part until we got off, a ranger saw us doing that and we got chewed out, it just seemed a little rude to get mad when we just didn't know the fairway was wet. And the prices should have changed with the green conditions.

Decent for the money

Course is ok for the money. Greens and bunkers need a lot of attention. Staff in clubhouse very nice, guy working with carts/starter/ranger has been rude every time I play here, and today was no exception. I've never seen such mean, grumpy jerk as this guy at any course I've played. I sincerely hope the new owner throws this guy out soon. I've been looking at homes in the neighborhood, but if he's not gone next time I play here I'll know new owner has no chance at success.

Slippery when wet

The golf course was excellent though hilly. Beautiful fairways and immaculate greens. A few of the holes required accurate approaches but I found that I was not the only one that landed in the woods. A couple tee boxes were being reseeded but the alternates were every bit as good. Be careful when driving the carts though as they are electric and the brakes engage if you let off the accelerator. The day I played was after a heavy rainstorm. Wet pavement and instant braking make for a disquieting slide down a steep cart path. Lesson learned, do not let off the accelerator while going downhill. Yes, I would love to play the course again. However, I will probably wait for a drier day.

Challenging and a nice layout

Course is under new ownership. The biggest issue is and has been for some years the poor and stoney bunkers. With the potential for serious club damage I would recommend rake and place in all bunkers. otherwise look forward to a great day of golf.

Course sold at auction the day I played it. Here's hoping the new owners take pride in their acquiesence

Course is a fun, challenging track to play. Most golfers skilled average and up will enjoy it's challenge.

Course has great bones, but upkeep is really poor

This course is very well laid out, but very poorly maintained due to lack of willingness to spend the money needed to repair bare spots on greens tee boxes, and fairways. Ranger at course was old crotchety and very rude when their was almost no one on this course. Additionally, due to lack of maintenance the cart paths are falling apart and the roughs are being overtaken by weeds. It is really a shame that this course has fantastic potential to be a premium course but this is being wasted by a lack of investment and some staff with poor attitude not remembering to be courteous to paying customers.

Overall nice course to play

Fairways were in good shape but some of the greens were in rough condition. Biggest problem was pace of play--took 4 1/2 hours to play 18--I do not enjoy that slow pace of play.

Greens not great

Have always loved this course and the GolfNow price was excellent. However, the greens were in the worst shape that I've ever seen them there. Not sure if it's disease, or what. They may be trying to rehab the greens, as it seemed the pin placement has only been on half or small sections of the greens for quite some time. That half was chewed up and in poor shape, while the other half of the green was in very good condition in most cases. Also, the bunkers were unplayable, most were mud or packed sand. My group decided after the 1st bunker that we would pull all sand lies out.

Relaxing Round

Really great round with exceptional service and pace of play. Only had to wait 1 time for group ahead of us. About 5 minutes. If prices included cart in membership package I'd join in a heartbeat. Hole 3 is having some problems with the green but this time of year thats expected. Great time today!

Avalon

The fairways and rough were in great shape. Some of the greens were a bit spotty and the traps had many rocks. My biggest complaint was the pace of play and no rangers to encourage the slow group to pick up the pace.

Bunkers in Bad Shape

Overall the course was very nice. Greens were spectacular and very pretty course. Bunkers on the other hand were atrocious. They had standing water and a lot of rocks. They need serious attention.

Fix the bunkers!

This course was outstanding, expect for the bunkers. There are a total of 84 bunkers on this course and every single one that i walked by or was in had rocks and pebbles all in them. it was awful. My friend and I actually let each other pick all the rocks we could see around the ball out of the way bc they will tear up a club. If they could would sift them and then add some quality sand, the course would get a 5.0 rating from me.

Staff is very disrespectful

Staff could care less about you out there......guess you have to be a member to be treated with respect. This was my go to golf course for 8 years...... guess the new management wants to run it in the ground.....greens were in good shape though....... will not go back.....
