Turnberry GC review

Course was in great condition, played in under 4 hours and never had to wait to hit any shot on a Saturday. Greens were smooth and rolled true.

Course good, but another player soured the round.

We were having a nice round and some other golfer came by to complain to us that we had too many carts. We weren't holding up play and we had an additional cart due to the fact that one of the foursome was leaving early. The course was fine with the addtional cart and in some ways made playing a little faster. We told the staff about the golfer.

Hey Smile

Staff in the front could give a smile and make eye contact. I can understand that's it is the start of the season and everyone is busy getting the golf course ready. I encountered the front desk person a few times and just needs to smile and appreciate customers, looked grumpy. If you want to golf here, give it a go. It's not a bad course.

My group and I love Turnberry

. My group and I have been playing here for a couple years now....Typically two to three times a month. The greens are typically in fantastic shape, and we think the course layout is very challenging.... But not ridiculous. We do look forward to playing here every single time. I wish they would grow the rough in a little thicker. The grass is a little thin off the fairway.

Early

Season just started. Wasn't impressed with the staff. I understand it's early in the season, but dang it...smile!!! I get that you are busy getting things done. Everyone has a bad day, For that I will give a pass. Learn to say hi and appreciate your customers. I will not hurry back to this place, but may give this course another chance. Glad to be golfing this time of year. Maybe you will have a blast!

Fun place to play

Turnberry is a great course. Lots of challenges. Lots of sand. Some really creative holes. The greens are always tricky. I love it here!

Great early season round

One of the few courses open and allowing carts. The course condition is above expected for the time of year. Crowded with a little slow play as to be expected on a 70 degree day in mid March. If you're looking to complain you can find some topics. The carts are aged and there are enough other quirky things if you're that person. But overall it's a great well maintained track at a great price and I've always felt welcome and at home. The bar and grill aren't open yet but they're worth a 19th hole stop when they reopen for the season. But please ignore my review as I'm a local who plays there often and don't want to see it get over crowded. 😉⛳️
