Cardinal Golf Club - RedCrest

Love this course. Well laid out and very nice. After a heavy downfall of rain on Saturday night, clearly the course wasn't ideal. What do you expect for late October golf! Considering how much rain came down the night prior the course was playable and we had a lot of fun.

Surprisingly, for an afternoon tee off and despite all that rain there were plenty of groups playing. The pace of play was pretty slow as there were times we were waiting close to 10min to tee off , waiting for the group in front of us as they waited for the group in front of them.

Love this place can't wait to go back in warmer weather.

First issue is a little touchy, but here goes. The majority of the players are Asian. Most are fine and friendly, others are not friendly and do not even want to play with non-Asians. If you do get stuck with a group of them, they will not speak English - at all. They tend not to rake bunkers or fix ball marks on the green. Front desk staff are fine. Course workers are not friendly and seem oblivious to driving equipment when players are about to take a shot. I was on the first hole, ready to tee off when a big mower drives right across the fairway 150 yards away from me. One maintenance worker gave my playing partner crap for not saying “fore” louder. Very unfriendly group. That being said, great layout and a good test of golf.

I thought when you book a tee time that locks your time in .. at 16 Marshall tells us if we don’t speed up that we won’t be able to finish .. what a joke . First time in my life someone has said or done this to us .. there were 4 players in front of us also! Lol

If you won’t let the golf cart out to your car to get your clubs won’t even start the cart until they lead you to the first tee. Looks like golf for dummies to many rules could even take the mandatory cart to the practice green and they don’t have a driving range to go to.

I wonder if this was the image they originally thought of.

And that $10 bonus golf now gives you I will make sure I use it the first snow storm we get here if it doesn’t expire before then.

Nice course but do not like others joining in if your a twosome which they do.

Enjoyed this course. I would play this course again, however, we found it strange that the refreshment cart did not go out before 1pm. This was just about the time we made the turn, however, we did not see her until we were finished the 17th.

Also, for this price range, we were very surprised that there was no driving range.

Course was good, no problems with the course itself but golfers please fix your divots and fix your ball marks on the green. Never fixed so many ball marks on the green. Greens would be top notched if golfers “real golfers” knew how to and when to fix ball marks on the green. Course conditions were good but again could be top notch if golfers replaced there divots or filled there divots, golf etiquette needs to be reminded by a Marshall who was not on the course. If there was a Marshall he or she would have asked the group in front of us to use the tee boxes that were equivalent to there skill level ohhh boy,, it was frustrating to watch and play behind.

But we accepted the pace of play due to the fact it was a beautiful summer Sunday afternoon round on a busy course.
