Slow

It started when we got there for our tee time. We were told that they were all out of carts and had to wait until some came off of the couse. After waiting until 15 minutes after our tee time, carts finally came in and we were able to proceed. The carts that came in had no operational GPS and the pickup was non-existent. Once we got out on the course, we had to wait on every single hole. We ended up taking over 5 hours to play. This is not the first time we have had this experience at Turnberry. One time could be a bad day but this seems like it is something that is a regular occurrence. Kind of a shame because I like the course. Won't be going back any time soon.

It’s not the old Turnberry

Proshop is empty. They didn’t have enough golf carts so we had to wait. The staff tried to make up for the accommodations. It’s not the old club.

We love Turnberry

We try to play Turnberry at least 8 to 10 times a season. It is a challenging course, But not so difficult it's unhitable. The greens were a nice solid green and not overly fast but well maintained.

Only negatives are the tee boxes are pretty tore up and the driving range isn’t a driving range

Condition not worthy of Layout

This is a wonderful golf course and worth playing even if condition is not so great and amenities were non-existent when we were there.

Canadian Geese

The course is in great shape and we love playing here, but they may want to consider getting lasers to detour the hundreds of Canadian geese that they have on the back nine. We recently played a course who uses this system and they have no geese!

Poorly Run, going downhill

This is a great layout, in decent condition. No range balls at 9am on a Sunday? Had to wait for a cart to come off the course for our tire time? Should have saved the money on the fancy addition to the driving range and invested in actual range balls, staff, or carts
