SaddleBrooke Ranch Golf Club

This course has the widest fairways I’ve ever seen. It is super forgiving. It also has a ton of tee box choices to pick from. The facilities are extremely well kept and clean/well-organized. It’s a great place to take a beginner to learn and won’t beat them up too badly. It’s a better alternative to one of the city courses.

It is highly exposed to the elements. There were not a ton of shade trees and wind was a huge factor the day I played. I could see that being the case often.

When I started, there was a group of 4 old ladies in front of me playing slower than I’ve ever seen a foursome play. I had to pass them and come back to play that hole. I think they might have been just learning to play, so no big deal. Aside from that, I didn’t see another group all day. There was nobody pushing me and nobody in front of me.

If you’re looking for a challenging course, this is not the one for you. I NEVER play tips, but I did here and I still shot 7 strokes better than my average.

Please note if you decide to play here the residents control it.

Also note that this is a retired couples golf course.

4.5 hours is the rule here, busy or not there will always be some older couples slowing things up and trust me the residents ain't never waiving a faster group through..

Snack bar closes at 2. Carts are starting to look rundown, ripped sears etc. Long way to drive for a slow round on a generic golf course.

The course was in good shape. Greens were good too.

Started forgot to announce me. Stuck me between two threesomes.

Tee boxes and greens in great shape. Fairways cut very short and tough to hold greens on approach shots. Overall straight forward, very nice course.

The cross over stand going to 10 should stay open longer

It was just before 2 and the stand was closed already

Good experience overall. Foursome behind us was annoying though. We had to wait for foursome in front of us but a most of the course. The pace was good though, so didn’t know what their problem was!

This is a nice course, pretty and a nice layout. We happened to get it on a gorgeous day, sunny and very pleasant. The fairways are very tight and the greens were VERY hard to read. We had a heck of a time trying to figure the breaks.

The resort has FANTASTIC amenities and the food in the grille was excellent. Would definitely want to play it again.
