Pace issues

Could only get 14 holes in as I had a late afternoon commitment. Group in front of us was playing very slow and really should not have been out on a Saturday.

Busy Muni

Course layout was confusing with several holes where we intersected other greens, tee boxes and fairways. Course was busy (it was a weekend) but the pace of play was only moderately slow./ Conditions were as expected for a municipal course where no one fixes ball marks of replaces divots (sigh)

Terrible Food Service

They have a site to place an online order so we do that at the 9th hole. Get to the street Cafe to pick it up and she says the order never came. 2 people came out of the kitchen to say they don't use that site anymore but it still charged me. So instead they bring me food I didn't order and it was all wrong. Very dissatisfied with the service and overall accommodation for their mistake. There was nobody enforcing any kind of rules, an 8 person scramble just decided to jump in at hole 10 which ruined pace of play. Would never recommend anybody go here.

If you’re mad about the food at a golf course, maybe golf isn’t your thing…

This course is well maintained and challenging , hit it straight here, length is secondary

Beautiful golf course with excellent staff!!! Greens are well kept, nice tees and fairways. Still river meanders though so course management is key. Every season the course maintenance is excellent

Pleasantly surprised.

I had not played CVGC in many years. I was impressed. The course was green and in decent shape. The greens rolled well. Most importantly, I played this with a friend on a Friday afternoon of a long holiday weekend in June and we got around in 4 hours on the button. We waited on a few tee shots on some holes, but the pace of play was far better than I expected. I will be back.
