Turnberry Country Club

...after several years to play this course. The course itself seems to be going through a resurgence from tee to green. They are spending money where it makes a difference - on the course, equipment and a full staff! The sand traps which I visited several times appeared to be newer sand and I witnessed the crew maintaining them out on number 8 which was great to see! It's true, the clubhouse and carts need an upgrade yet I'll be back to enjoy this course at a reasonable Senior cost! It's a beautiful layout and the tree's make it tough when you veer off...the rough is true rough and not like hitting from your backyard. Challenging yet fair...had a great time!

Turnberry CC presents as a mid-to-high tier muni and does not disappoint having played 18 on a miserably hot day.

Staff: Incredibly unfriendly and unhelpful, almost as if they hated having to work. My “assigned” playing partner went to take the gas cart back to his car and it stalled 3 times. When he asked for another cart, they flat refused. He limped it over to me on the 1st tee where I took great care to make sure we completed a round without having to walk.

Driving Range: Every shot was not “like” hitting out of 3 inches of rough, it was literally rough height and unkempt. There were no buckets available so I grabbed all of the available buckets on the range for the other patrons and I to use the ball machine.

Course: The course played like a low-end CC or mid-to-high tier municipal course with smooth greens rolling consistently. The rough was pretty unkempt so it was like playing a tough tournament where you got punished in the thick stuff.

Overall, I think this course still has some life, but the staff lack kindness and the golf carts need to be replaced.

Right away they give us a golf cart that can’t hold the scorecard or pencil on the steering wheel and the range finder that’s on the cart didn’t work either. We had a threesome and asked the staff if they could move the random person in our group to the tee time after cause it had open spots and they said yes and then never told the random about it so he still played with us. After the first hole we had to wait for two groups ahead of us to tee off on whole two. It took one hour to complete two holes..

The price is good, grass range, and a nice friendly clubhouse. The carts are in horrible shape: golf cart died and had to be jumped, steering wheel so beat up I couldn’t write scores ontop of it, and the gps is a tablet that didn’t work. The course itself wasn’t in good shape but not unplayable.

RAINED OUT AFTER 2 HOLES. TOLD COULD ONLY GET RAIN CHECK BY CALLING GOLF NOW, BY THE OWNER , SONNY. HE STATED GOLF NOW WOULD CALL THE COURSE AND VERIFY IT WAS RAINED OUT. SOUNDED A BIT STANGE. LOOKING TO SEE HOW WE GET OUR RAIN CHECK
