Quality course

Very lush well maintained course. The tips are short, but water hazards and placement shots make it feel much longer. A good challenge. Bunkers could use some love.

Perhaps forward, forward tees

For we septuagenarians, our rounds were good. These days good means less than bogie golf.We had fun but it is interesting to note that 15 over translates into a handicap round of about 22+.(forward tees - forget the handicap, I had fun)

Great Twilight Round

Got 18 holes in in around 2 hours at Twilight. Friendly staff, course in great shape. Challenging with a few tight fairways and lots of water. Looking forward to playing here again.

SAND TRAPS ARE UNPLAYABLE

Layout is tricky and greens are great but traps are hard packed dirt.

Get a good deal from Golf Now and enjoy the layout and greens.

Great course, challenging back 9

Greens were well kept, along with fairways. Front nine was shorter, but back nine reals you in. Some hard shots over water if you don’t set your first shot up well.

Great Course

We like playing Glendale Lakes it is moderately challenging. The course layout is very good. The front nine kind of gets you feeling it’s a tame course then the back nine hits you with water challenges. It’s fun to play. I would recommend it to anyone wants a challenge. And the price is right seniors.

Probably the best I’ve played in the last 2 years!

Very similar to The Brute but a fraction of the price. Will be back for more even though it’s 1hr away
