Nice Course

The course is nice! I love playing here! However please see below areas that need improvements.

1) course navigation - my Golf GPS is saying that this is still an 18 holes course. Maybe someone on your end can get it updated?

2) ball cleaner at every hole - wish list

3) Calling the clubhouse for reservations- I called once and the lady on the line was asking for my CC number and expiration date which is fine but was also asking for my CVV. I told her that is my only protection from fraud so I did not give it to her. Even online reservations doesnt ask for CVV. Maybe better personnel manning the phones would/can be improved

Great 9 hole layout

Original 18 has been reduced to 9 holes. The remaining 9 holes are a true gem.

Not the usual short 9 hole course. Very challenging and fun to play.

Great Course

One of the best 9 hole courses you can find. It is a remnant of a previous 18 hole layout so the holes are legitimate holes and not the typical 9 hole course.

The conditions were outstanding and the greens were excellent.

Would definitely play this course again.

Urban Country Club Party Atmosphere

I used to play Montebello 18 and this was the first time swinging at Bella Verde 9. The old 18 was somewhat boring and under maintained. The current 9 features mostly par fours with a nice mix of uphill, downhill, and sidehill tee shots to well maintained Bermuda fairways. Greens were firm, fast, and fair with attractive large bunkers.

Walking the course is a little challenging because the first few holes climb the hill and there are often considerable distances between the greens and the next tee boxes.

The clubhouse is modern and music booms from dozens of speakers surrounding water features with ample seating. A fun place to hang out even if not a golfer.
