Golfer Reviews
Maples of Ballantrae
The course was in very good condition for this time of year. The greens were very good. There were no fallen leaves on the fairways or greens.
The course would be better if the tee boxes were more even. On too many your feet are either above or below the ball on the tee shot.
Poor to fair.
I was a single player, so I was teamed up with 3 others, all seasoned players from another location of town.
We all had similar views on the course, which was poor.
The last time they had played this course was several years ago, and they concluded that no improvements had been done since then, as a matter of fact, there was an area that was very wet, note: We have not had rain in 3 days, and one of the vets said that, that was a problem the last time he played there.
Also there is a wooden bridge over water, that is leaning, precariously to one side.
The pathways are in bad shape, with T boxes that make one feel disorientated, very slanted, or crooked. As for the greens! they are very bad, almost like they have not been rolled in weeks.
To conclude, we did not think playing that course was worth the price charged.
This course is average.
The first two holes are challenging; the rest are average. The greens have long grass. The carts have no screens, which is a negative. We played with a discount;otherwise, the course is too expensive for the quality of it. Usually, the pace of play is slow, although yesterday it was not bad.
O.K course, but pace crawled
Granted it was a mid-morning start, but the pace of play was the biggest thing. They were worried about my 9-year old son (who shot 126 by the way), but with my 77, we were able to keep up just fine (with an average-paced couple as our partners). Marshals seemed to be out and helped on a couple of holes since I was unfamiliar with the course.
Greens were banged up, so putts were a bit of an adventure.
There are some blind shots, so we got hit into a few times - no one's fault really, but just beware.
Cordial staff. Nice beer options at the 19th hole.
Not sure if I will head back anytime soon. I think there is better value out there...
Great value, nice track
Clubhouse, starter and cart girl were great. Nice course. Good value.
One blemish was restaurant. We were only table and two waitress's totally ignored us and chatted away behind the bar. We asked if they were closed but it was mid afternoon. One even left the building for 15 minutes. Food was really lame as well.
Go to course but grab your beer and wings in town.
challenging to play, still close to the city at a decent price (<$70 w cart)
Played on a chilly and rainy day in September. No crowds. Course was in good shape with the exception of the bunkers that were hard nnd some full of water as they had not been drained yet. Grass was just cut so the spikes stayed grassy. Enjoyable round.
Great value, greens were in great shape, staff was awesome and friendly.
Enjoyed the whole day from arrival to completion, marshals were friendly and not at all pushy, maintenance staff were respectful and friendly. Great atmosphere and an enjoyable experience. Well done..
Interesting course with some variations in layout and elevation.
Interesting course with some variations in layout and elevation. However, some areas within the course require more attention of maintenence. Length of grass in many rough areas next to fairway is mostly long. Often even just off the fairway, it is difficult to find the balls. The ground is also a bit hard especially at the rough. Sand is bit hard. Unless you can play at discounted rates at odd time, the green fee is bit high relative to the course conditions.
Poor
The greens are all inconsistent, pace of play is slow even after this was brought to the attention of the marshall.
Fair value for what I paid
I found the course was too crowded for a Thursday morning. Maybe it was overbooked. We felt a little rush as the marshall was pushing us along.
Challenging greens but not much more
Played this course a number of times, only because of it's close proximity, and I think it's over rated. Very bumpy and long grass fairways, greens pose a bit of a challenge but that's it. Good starter course but way to expensive. $50 cart included is all one should pay.
Good value for money
Good course, challenging holes, lots of water. Not a lot of amenities - 10th hole follows directly after 9th - no chance to get food. But great value for money. Not pretentious.
Good value. too slow on a sunday afternoon
Good value for the course. too slow on a sunday afternoon
Good challenge
Lots of trees. Tight fairways. Course was well maintained and staff was friendly. Greens were excellent and challenging.
Expensive for what it is
This course is defintiely not worth more than $40 a round at any time. It is not very well maintained and the grass is rather sparse in some areas. It's also a pretty short course, be sure to check out the yardage before playing here.
Made the mistake of getting a cart. No GPS and pretty slow pace of play.
Greens were very slow when we played there, they clearly hadn't been cut that day.
Staff was pretty friendly, lots of marshalls on the course, but they weren't doing much.
All in all it was a beautiful day so we enjoyed it but it was far too expensive for what you get.
Great mid-week golf experience
We played on a Thursday morning, and it was, hands down, the best golf experience in 3 years. The staff was very friendly, the marshals did their job to keep slow groups playing, and the course was in ideal shape. We played at a very reasonable pace, getting around in 4 hours, and throughly enjoyed the weather, and the course. With the Golfnow discount, it was an ideal price to pay.
Good Course
Had a great time. Great course for money. Too slow of play.
