Golf the way it was meant to be

There needs to be more courses like this one for average golfers. You still need to hit good shots to score well as there are bunkers and some trees to avoid,, but the course isn't as punitive for bad shots as most of the more modern layouts. The rough wasn't too thick, and the trees spaced enough for recovery shots. It's a course that can be played at a nice pace too, as balls rarely get buried out of sight in rough, and where there is water, they have drop area.

The course is nicely maintained too. Greens were firm and rolled well, bunkers well maintained, and not a lot of bare spots.

This is not a course you should pay big bucks to play. It's just a good solid course, that's very well run.

Good Course; Confused Management

Overall this course is OK. Probably would have had a better impression if the clubhouse manager did not try to overcharge us for our round. He wanted to add an extra charge for a cart even though the GolfNow rate included a riding cart. When several patrons complain or tell you that the GolfNow rate includes cart, you may want to double check to see if there is any validity to their complaints instead of adamantly telling them that they are wrong. It wasn't until he was shown a confirmation e-mail that he admitted to being wrong. Management, please get it together. Who knows how many patrons you may have overcharged that day.

A little slow but overall not bad. Rangers were trying to keep flow steady. Lots of ladies on the holiday. Too many trees!

Worst Golf Experience Ever

From the beginning to the end it was an awful experience. The starter rushed us on to the course without allowing us to warm up way before our tee time. Then we were forced to finish nine holes in an hour and a half because of an outing they were having. We left the course early because of how the staff was. Needless to say I will never go back there again.

Sloooowwww

5+ hour round. We got caught at the back of a outing which is understandable but the starter did not help the cause. There was multiple 2 somes between 4 somes that should have went together.
It also looked like the groundscrew quit. The tee boxes looked like they hadn't been mowed in weeks as well as the fairways.
Horrible.

Nice Course - Long rough!!

Bloomindale GC is a nice course, but the rough was tough to find balls in due to the length being somewhat long. Also, they have a stipulation that no walkers before 11 a.m. Our tee time was 10:35 a.m. on Memorial Day & we followed 3 walkers who were very slow thus a 5 hr 10 min round of golf for my husband & I. I asked about it afterwards & got a ho hum answer. The course ranger was extremely polite & friendly & tried to move golfers along. Good value for the money.

The conditions were terrible.

The greens were cut and the conditions were good.
The rest of the course needed need it to be cut.
We had trouble finding our ball because the grass was so long. There was no roll in the fairway because the grass was so long.

Quality Course

This course is challenging with many hidden greens and plenty of trees. The fairways are boxed in with trees and playing your tee shot in the fairway is key. The fairways were a bit muddy but it is Spring. The greens were fast and in good shape. I would play here again!

Good greens

Haven't played here in years since they "jacked" the prices with the rehab. Gotta hot deal for $26. Great price!

Overall condition very good and the groundskeepers are out and about adding improvements. Good to see.

Good pace

There were only 2 or 3 groups of golfers when we tee off at 7:20am, so the course seems to be quite empty. There are some elevated greens, very little waters that comes into play. Overall good course for average golfers.

There is just too much to complain about. Someone needs to step up and take responsibility for this poor operation. Probably never again will I play here.
