Oak Hills

We did first round of the year, wonderful weather. Unfortunately we had a very slow foursome in front of us. There was no Marshall who kept an eye on the pace. Leaving us waiting a few minutes for every stroke.

It is worth more than green fees to play a round golf at this course. I will surely come back.

Can't blame the course- it was Golf Now who messed up.

After paying full rate on GolfNow I got to the course to find that not only were the tee boxes closed (had to tee off from muddy side locations usually), they also had the greens closed! (Flagged were placed in random locations on the fairway). Making it impossible to know distance most of the time. When we got to the course the clubhouse informed us they were charging people half rate due to the conditions. Golfnow did not indicate this when I booked and charged full rate. The course was unable to provide any refund. Very unfortunate, disappointing, and frustrating.

No Pins or Tee boxes

I think it would be appropriate when your booking a golf course that information pertaining to that golf golf course be made available to the person booking. The tees and the greens were closed when we arrivedl if we had known that we would have never booked that facility

Caveat Emptor

Looking at the previous reviews, I see that they are dominated by complaints about the conditions and slow play. What do you expect? It’s a municipal course right in the middle of one of the most densely populated areas in the country. It’s going to get a lot of abuse by a lot of people. What I don’t see is an appreciation of the bones of the course, the design. This course is classic old school golf with the emphasis on shot making. There are some really good holes here that evoke the era of real wood clubs. The course is built into the landscape and you have to play your shots right to set up the next shot. That’s golf.

Having said that, this is a course that I would play in the off season, which I did, when there’s limited options to play. I certainly wouldn’t choose to play here on a summer weekend at a high price. But I have the ability to travel. Those who live in the city may not and this is their place. So buyer beware, play when it is at or below your price point and don’t expect a luxury experience. But it’s still golf.

Winter Golf. DO NOT USE GOLF NOW

To play here in the winter call the course directly. It was $32 for the hot deal but you can play 18 for $25 by calling the course. Temporary greens and temporary tees.

GN prepaid reservation not as advertised

GN reservation said cart included. I’m disabled and can only play cart golf. Course was not letting carts out, as the pro showed me was clearly stated at the top of its website, after I got there. GN should not have advertised cart included. If GN promptly refunds my money I will continue to consider them valid. If they give me the run around, you have been warned

Sold 18holes play on sunset

It forced us to play only 8 holes due to a slow pace of play and darkness even though we paid for 18 holes.
