Castle Oaks Golf Club

I have played here several times, greens were a little disappointing. Old divots that no one repaired. Greens rough. Bunkers mostly clay with very little sand and very hard. I still enjoyed the day, and would come back. I hope they fux above problems.

Usually have a great time playing this course. It was in good shape yesterday, greens were excellent. However, pace of play ruined the day. Was supposed to tee off at 12:44, didn't get off till 1. Hitting as soon as landing area clear, and still didn't finish up 18 until 5:56pm. 3 groups stacked up at every tee box. Not cool.

Great day every time i play here. Worth the drive if your not close by. No one hole is the same. Corky, tough course, but fair.

Greens were slow this time. Wasnt used to seeing that from here. Doesn't get a hole lot of play almost like it's private. Fast rounds, really nice finishing holes there.

I heard about Castle Oaks GC years ago, so I decided to give it a try with a Buddy. The weather was supposed to top out at 91 degrees, so we got a 9 am tee time and it was already 77. We were stuck behind two foursomes that ran slow, so it killed our pace of play. I did not see any Marshals.

The golf shop staff were friendly and helpful. The facility was clean and neat (but a little cluttered). The carts do not have GPS so bring your own. The tee boxes could use some attention, perhaps maintenance is done on Mondays?

The course was fun to play, with many wide fairways and plenty of course undulation to cause some ball roll. If you do go wide right/left and OB, many areas have thorny-bushes so just forget about it.

Many of the greens appeared to need maintenance. Not sure when they roll them, but clean-up is in order. They appeared to run true, not a lot of surprises.

Several holes, including #18 have water. From the tee boxes, you may not see how far the water extends, so you may want to take the cart out to get a visual before teeing off.

Overall, I found castle Oaks GC a fun course and will return.

Course is a very nice layout and beautiful. Very good value. Appears they have a problem with their regular players not fixing ball marks on the greens. Greens were beautiful and putted well but all have lots of small dead spots that look to be from ball marks people didn’t fix in time.

This is a beautiful, well-kept course. Unfortunately, they don’t enforce pace of play rules and we endured a rediculous 6 hour round behind a golf club’s supposed tournament. They’re a freaking golf club, they should know how to keep things moving. Guess I’ll skip weekend play in the future.

Castle Oaks, like usual is a delightful course to visit. The staff is very friendly, the course is in good shape (except for the sand traps that are nice but don’t have SAND), and then there’s that foursome that can’t find the fairway, make it to the green in 5, check out the putt from every angle before 3 putting and wouldn’t dream of allowing anyone to play through. Have they not heard of bowling? But that’s just some people that still leave the course a fun place to play.

Every thing is great except there's no sand In the bunkers.

The starter decided to send out a 5 some on a crowded holiday at 1:30 p.m. Once this group quit after 9, the pace of play improved dramatically. Before we teed off, I mentioned the 5 some to the starter and he said, "they're locals and play fast."

In the end, the round was 5 and a half hours. This is not acceptable. 5 somes are never acceptable on busy holiday weekends.

Have always liked this course and still do. Like every other Valley course I play, then sand (dirt) bunkers are deplorable. Make some of your bunkers grass bunkers, reduce the size of the ones you want to keep and maintain them with actual sand.

Thought it was going to be a horrible day, It was a very windy day, however, the course played great.

Shot my best round ever, hit all but 2 fairways. Greens were rolling nice. The only issue I had was the rocks in the traps. I don't like hitting my clubs out of rocks and there are some good sized rocks in the trap behind 18th green. Other then that, enjoyed the day and the round. Will recommend it to others.

The staff was friendly, pace of play as expected but the restrooms were filthy! Unflushed toilets, no towels and full waste bins. Gender neutral bathrooms yuk!

I love castle Oaks Golf Course. However, there needs to be some way to let golfers know, before they book the round, when there are other events happening at the course. WE arrived and were told a High school Golf championship was going on in front of us.

The staff in the pro shop was very helpful and tried to do what they could to accommodate us, but play was very slow.

We were able to t up early; but that certainly didn't help. Over 5 hours to play this course just isn't right. For some reason, there were no marshall's moving play along. We had to wait on every t-box while the 4-some in front of us hit multiple balls off the t's, looked for every one of them on both sides of the fairways, and practically sat down for lunch on every green waiting for each other to put.

I actually like to play this course; but it's too far away at any price to put up with this nonsense.

It challenges you with water, and the rough.

Maybe penalizes would be a better description, that is if YOU don't play smart and take your medicine.

Stayin the fairway and you'll truly enjoy it.

I have low double digit handicap and I love the course. I do think rough is way to deep. Played with an older couple sprayed the balk a little. We spent a good amount of time just looking for their balls even though they were not far off fairway. I also spent too much time looking for a few of my wayward shots. Great course just think the rough doesn’t need to be as long as it is. We also played in five hours and kept up with the group in front of us in fact waited in several occasions. Maybe they were searching too?
