Great value
This might be the best shape the course has been in all year. Very few golfers playing on a beautiful day so I had plenty of time to hit an extra shot or putt. Greens were rolling very true. An excellent day of golf
Must Play
Not up to their standards is my guess. Heat has impacted current conditions at Oglebay. Even at sub par conditions, still one of my favorite tracks! Have played here several times this year.
The course was great
the staff was extremely friendly and helpful
Hills and slope
Very nice course off the beaten path. Interesting design with lots of elevation changes. We were too timid to try and walk, and I was glad we took a cart. Greens have a lot of subtle and not so subtle slopes, but they rolled well. Some rough spots in several fairways that were marked ground under repair, and a few tees that needed some work. I believe both nines had 3 par fives and 3 par threes, so a bit different from that standpoint. Good mix of short and long holes. We had a great time and felt it was an exceptional value
Always Good to play Palmer
I love this course and I try to play it as often as possible during the golf season. We happened to catch it a couple of weeks after they aerated the greens. I was disappointed that there wasn't clear indication on the GolfNow website alerting me to this fact so I would be able to make an informed decision to play or wait a few more weeks. I did call the course and they provided me an accurate description of the state of the healing process. We still decided to play knowing it was not going to meet it's usual standard of play we have become accustom to experiencing on the Palmer course. We were blind sided by the saturated fairways. The people at the pro shop never mentioned it.They must have had some heavy rain throughout the week. We just played lift clean and place. The price made the aerated greens and the saturated fairways bearable! Very nice layout, vistas and wildlife!
Great course, worth the play
The Oglebay resort has a couple of oustanding courses. Very tough, but a lot of fun. Extreme up and down, lots of side hills, greens are very tough. Beautiful views all over the course.
Only problem we had was that we got stuck behind a very slow 4 some and the round took just over 5 hours which is a joke. A marshall watched us sit behind the group and did nothing which was frustrating.
That being said, I would play this course again if I was in the area.
Course is in great shape
Great value through golfnow. Course is in amazing shape.
