Bloomington Downs Golf Club

A lot of the tee blocks are being elevated or repaired which is making the holes longer. Lot of the course was soggy which was tolerable, but the pace of play was terrible waiting 5 minutes for 13 holes.I would play the course again in the spring to see the new distances.

The course was laid out fine, but as a first time player on the course, where the next hole is, was confusing and therefore signs need to be posted in more places to quickly get you on course and on the right tee. We made a mistake twice and it was 4 of us trying to figure that out. On 3 occasions we had to ask. the course is still being groomed and will be much better when work is done. a little expensive for just walking though. But very forgiving on most holes as the fairways were fairly wide and little wooded areas.

Wonderful staff!

Just get a marshal out there!!

Have yet to see one

Many white n blue tee platforms were under construction so moved up to the laddies’ red tee. Fairways n greens were fine but pace a little slow at back nine.

too much renovation and construction on many holes. Tee-off areas relocated and therefore difficult to gauge distance to the pin. Many areas muddy with piles of debris. Course should let players know the conditions they are playing in. Even hot deals from GolfNow is not worth the price.

Very pleasant game despite thick fog for the first 2 holes. A little cold and windy, but very enjoyable.

BDG is a pretty straightforward course, most of holes are straight, however, some with hills prevent seeing all through, indeed increase the challenges and fun,. Not much of water, only 3 or 4 holes have water. With Fall leaves, one may find it hard to find balls at the edge of trees.

A bit unpleasant experience is on staff side. I was asked if I had already paid at GN at check-in, which indicated that they did know I had paid, but somehow, they still double charge me full courses. Now getting into after-sales expedite. Hopefully they will refund me, but hard to understand why they did it initially.

I decided to play this course again after a terrible experience last time. I've played it regularly over the years and quite like it, but the pace of play was awful last time. This time ... even worse. We began behind three middle-aged men, poor golfers who literally searched for lost balls after every drive. Despite their slow play, they managed to play through the group ahead of them! That clearly inexperienced group, now ahead of us, consisted of three young women, one young man and a dog! And not a little dog - an English Sheep Dog! How can this happen?! Because there was no Starter and we never saw a Marshall or even a beer cart all day. It took us several holes to play through that group and then we were back behind the very slow group of middle-aged men. Behind us more groups were playing through the "Dog" group, and by the 16th tee we were one of three groups waiting to tee off. This pace of play is really unacceptable. Rounds routinely over 5 hours cry out for the hiring of Marshalls to move weak golfers along. With the current situation I can't recommend this course to anyone.
