Good price for 18 holes

Some of the fairways were nice and green while others were brown. Decent amount of water and sand. Bunkers could have been nicer, but every golfer wants to avoid sand if possible. Greens were in ok condition. One of the greens had huge divots in it though. Looked like someone beat the ground with their putter repeatedly. Have to be careful not to hit some houses if you have problems hitting the ball straight which I do. For $15 you couldn't beat the price that included a golf cart. Overall I had a good time.

Great prices, and great if your a local.

There is a lot of water on this course, and it surrounds multiple holes. Do not play agressive on the second & third hole. Otherwise, it will really mess you up for the rest of the front nine. Take it slow on the second hole, and it will be rewarding for the remaning holes. Good luck!

This is a course you can play time and again.

The Glendale Lakes course was in excellent condition when my brothers and I played it. The course was well laid out to take advantage of the water hazards requiring us to "plan" our way around the course. The staff was very helpful without being intrusive. The challenges presented on the course allows appeared possible to overcome although we were rarely able to do that on the first attempt. We met another duffer on the course who enjoyed it so much that he repeatedly returns and I must say that I would tend to agree with that assessment.

Greens in good condition, course well maintained.

My son and I played from the tips and it proved to be relatively challenging. Most fairways are wide open but a few are tight and you're better off with a long iron or hybrid off the tee. Windy conditions was the biggest challenge. Nice course, great value.

Nice layout. Greens were in good shape

I've played this course quite a few times. First time this season though. The greens were really nice for this late in the season. This is what I refer to as a "target" course. Especially the par-5's. Definitely not a "Bombers" course. Many holes require a precise (less than driver) tee shot. Number 10 is a good example. You have to hit the landing area with your tee shot about 200 yds out. Don't miss short, long or left!

If you like water and lots of it this is your course.

This is a fun course to play, and I enjoy myself every time. I have played this course several times at full cost. I enjoy it that much..

Nice course, terrible bunkers

It has been quite a while since I last played this course. The course was in good condition. One issue was, the greens were punched, which always makes putting tough. The biggest issue was the bunkers. Of all the bunkers I saw, only one or two had sand in them. So if you go in a bunker, pick it clean, or putt it out.

It was a very pleasant golfing experience.

There are several tough holes that requires carefull course management. The pace of the game is well monitored by the rangers.

Nice course but a little too high priced.

Paid $53 for 18 holes with cart. I have played many courses this year and I am willing to pay a high price for a high quality course. I would think this course should be priced between $40 and $45 based on other courses in the area. At that price level I would rate it 4 stars. Sand traps require attention or at least some more sand in them. I know the last couple of rains have destroyed many traps but there has been time to make the repairs. The one positive--very easy to get on especially on a very nice weekend but too many 2-somes were allowed out which slowed play.

Needs attention and slow pace

Pace was slow all through the day. The fairways looked like try hadn't seen water in months. The traps were concrete and the greens weren't any better.
