Castle Oaks Golf Club

Best condition I’ve ever seen it for a winter month! I played in between rain so it was nicely mowed and manicured around the greens and fairways. Nice drive to get there and scenery is great too.

Played there several times through the years. Lots of mud and clumpy grass. Greens fast, but rough.

I played it only a couple days after a really big storm, so we expected some wet conditions. It was cart path only, which was expected. The driving range was closed, but again, I think it’s because they didn’t want to pick the range and tear it up. The course was in solid condition, though the drainage wasn’t great. Large puddles in fairways were a bit surprising. I wouldn’t let that influence you during a dry period. Overall it was fun, challenging, and I felt like it was worth the price of admission. For winter, it was in solid shape. The 18th hole split fairways was a really cool hole.

Kind of weird day. Guess a maintenance day or something. Range was closed, cart path only and they had us start on 11 instead of 10. But love the course! The greens are rough on some holes, but the overall course makes up for it.

Rate was not what I booked from tee time. $18.00 extra because I didn’t want to share COVID cart. Tee off says green fee is $52 for practice balls, cart and 18 holes. They say nope. It’s $70 and add $10 for the practice balls. Really!!! $80 does not look like $52 to me. And that’s a weekday rate?? Would be different if it was a plush course.

They charged me $40 for a cart because I didn’t want to share (COVID reasons). $35 walking rate and $70 for riding rate...on a weekday? I booked it as $52 riding rate through tee off but they still charged me $70. I will not be back anytime soon.

We arrived at the golf course early for 2 threesome and were told that we may be joined by one more player, so we waited but staff told us that if they don't show up to go ahead and play. Time came, players showed up late, so guess we started without them. Unfriendly staff approached us and not very nice, bad customer service. Why do we have to delay for latecomers? we paid the right fee, we should not be penalized for being early or on time, plus generally everyone is already playing slow in front of us. We almost did not finished 18th hole just right before it became really dark. Not sure if we'll be playing here again.

We've always play on New Year's day at different golf courses. This time in Castle Oaks golf club. A very cold busy day. Game did not start too good, a staff came and gave us a hard time because couple of players did not show up on time so we proceeded as instructed by the staff but came back and said that we should have waited...then at 16 hole, one of the cart's battery died on me. but good thing we finish the 18th hole before dark. May not go back here again.

I will open by saying, I live within 15 minutes of this course and I play about 125 rounds a year. With that said, I will never give any green fee money to this course again. Its poorly run, I had a tee time on 31st at 9:50 am but didn't get to play because I was a single player, I did have a reservation from golf now but they simply overlook it to take car of their friends, this wasn't the first time I've heard of this happening at this course. I have been playing a long time, I realize this happens everyday at nearly every golf course. To sum up please don't play this golf course or book a tee time before 12 o'clock if your not a friend of the staff. Good luck.

Enjoyed the round. A little slow at first, but pace picked up. I really don't like holes 1 & 10... too tight. But the other 16 are fine. Worth the drive.
