Golfer Reviews
What happened?
Not sure what happened since the last time i played this course (June 2019) but its in terrible condition !
Overgrown weeds all over, , bunkers with NO sand greens beat up and dried up. The course needs help.
The reason I choose to play here it today was due to the HOT DEAL I found on the internet.
It turned out to be an OK DEAL.

No refund from Golfnow, based on weather
Checked into Villa Olivia at designated tee time at 11:00a on 06/26 (pre-paid through Golfnow) and not able to play due to weather conditions and not able to push back the tee time. The gentlemen at the clubhouse was more than willing to help out, but was limited since I made the reservation with Golfnow. The major problem, is not able to reach out to anyone to rectify the situation.....not sure why it’s so difficult, to talk to a human being.
We appreciate you reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the experience you had during your round. We ask that you contact GolfNow customer service at 1 (800) 767-3574 for clarity. Please have your confirmation number handy. Thank you for playing Villa Olivia. We hope to see you again soon.
Fun Father's Day round
First full 18 holes of 2020. Fun time at Villa. Have played there over 75 times as it's close to home. Easy check in with Covid limitations. Carts and course in good shape. Greens had some rough spots. Halfway house being open was a pleasant surprise. Pace of play was fine.
We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Villa Olivia!
Worst Shape I have Ever Seen
This is by far the worst shape I have ever seen on a golf course. The grass wasn't cut. Made it extremely difficult to find your ball even in the fairways. Half the grass was dead. Then the putting greens were mostly sand. Hardly any grass on there and all you saw was deep footprints. Not worth the price I paid to play one bit. I was excited to cause Villa Olivia was always regarded as a nicer upscale place and this course just ruined it for me. Most likely won't go back.
Thank you for visiting us at Villa Olivia. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Not bad
Played a round here today. Greens were in bad condition. Worst greens I’ve come across this year. The grass was burnt and just overall poor condition. Rough was deep as well. To be fair we had a lot of high winds lately with the storm, so I won’t bash them for some debris out there. Overall neat course lay out, the back 9 is cool with the elevation around the ski hills. I would play here again.
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back!
Clean up the mulch
Villa Olivia is a good Golf course to play when it is taken care of. The day I played there was clippings of grass around that made finding your ball difficult even when hit in fairway. Although I did play it 1 week after they were allowed to open.
Thank you for your review! We will pass along your positive experience and your feedback to our team at Villa Olivia! We look forward to seeing you again soon.

first time playing the course this season and came by to play a round of 18 holes with a friend. From the time entering pro shop it was stellar customer service , the cart guy was beyond polite and courteous. The course was in great shape. At the end of the round one of the employees was talking with us and we were thanking them for having us out to play. It’s nice to see great staff stay interactive with the players. Can’t wait to play again at your location.
Thank you for the kind words! We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Villa Olivia!
Nice course, but why the huge jump in green fees?
First time playing Villa Olivia. 9 holes. Front 9. I always loved the front 9 because it provides an excellent variation. However, $19 walking? Huge increase over last year. Course was in nice shape. My only complaint would be the greens. Way too shagy. Always been this way. They need to be rolled or something. But overall I love the front 9.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we appreciate you leaving us with your feedback! Thank you for playing Villa Olivia! We hope to see you again soon!
We appreciate the review. You rated us 3-stars which means there is room to improve on your recent experience at Villa Olivia. Let us know, in the comments, how and where you would like to see changes from the course. Thanks for the feedback!
Nice overall course, back 9 is extremely hilly and tiring to walk. Back 9 is also more picturesque and challenging.
Overall unique holes and fun course to golf. Recommend to use a cart
Thank you for taking the time to review us! Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to having you back again soon. Villa Olivia thanks you!

Not great
Not a great course. Was in poor condition and over priced for what it is. Pace of play was slow, I got to ski lift wires during play and it was really wet. The staff was super friendly and there were some fun holes but there are better courses
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope you'll give us another try in the near future.
Not Great
The staff was friendly, there are some interesting holes but the course was not in great shape and was not worth the $40 we paid to play it.
Not ready for play
I played front nine twice. The thing is pin flags for all 9 holes were not set on the greens, so I had to make shots without target. I set the flags after cup in each hole, but other players did just lay the flags on the greens after their play, so when I played rhe 2nd front nine, glags were not set and just on the green. I made a call from the course a few times, but no one answered, although staff members were in the club house.
Fun Elevations!!
Real fun course would definitely play again! The different elevations make it a awesome view and challenging. The staff was super friendly. I’ll be going back for sure.
Stardrtz
Nice course in good shape. Staff very friendly. I would play here again.
Thank you for your rating and review. We are glad you enjoyed your round of golf.
Hi, thank you for taking the time to review us. Unfortunately we have recently had two mowers break down. We are still waiting for new parts to arrive and due to Covid-19 this process has taken longer than we anticipated. We hope to have this issue fixed soon and we hope you give us another try in the near future. Thanks for playing Villa Olivia.
