Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Canal Shores Golf Course!
Happy you guys took down American flag pins. Those are pretty hard to see. A dog stole my ball while I was teeing up on 12, but that’s not your guys fault. Enjoyed my round as always!

Your money is better spent elsewhere.
With the rate for a round being what it is, you know you're not going to be playing Pebble Beach or TPC Sawgrass quality golf. Even then I still managed to be disappointed. I had hoped that the recent bad reviews were the result of players with overinflated expectations or those with exacting demands but that was most certainly not the case. As others have mentioned, the 13th green can't even be called a green in even the most charitable way. On pretty much all the holes, there isn't much in the way of a fairway, it's all just rough. The tee boxes are also pretty poorly maintained, if at all. Another thing that I noticed very quickly was that there was a trashcan at only some of the holes. Fairly minor, but it would have been a nice touch to have one at every tee box. The offerings at the halfway house weren't bad but there wasn't much variety. Overall, pretty disappointing round...not sure I'll be returning any time soon.
Thank you for the feedback on your round. With the ongoing drought, maintaining course conditions has been challenging. Regarding the 13th green specifically, we will soon be implementing a temporary green in order to attempt to regrow the green. Thank you for alerting us about the trashcans situation. Please call us at the Pro Shop as we would like to offer you a round for future play.
Greens
Fairways great especially given limited rainfall.
A few greens are in need of total rehaul, especially 13th.
A few greens were improved.
Need to trim back some trees, 8th, 10th, 13th, 4th, as it is nearly impossible to hit a tee shot.
Staff always nice.

Worst course ever
I wish I had the option to put 0 stars. Absolutely horrendous. 13th hole is literally just mud with a hole on it
Thank you for leaving us a review. We always welcome feedback for improvement. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you will give us another try in the future. Thank you for choosing Canal Shores Golf Course.
Don’t waste your money
This was possibly the worst golf course ever played it 30 bucks to basically walk a glorified driving range. Greens are horrible, can barely tell the difference between the fairway and rough…..I want a $25 refund because this course is worth no more than $5

Worst Greens I've Ever Seen
One green was 99% dirt. Most of the greens had large patches of cracked dirt. It was honestly shocking to see.

Very poor conditions
- several of the greens are bothering but mud
- tee boxes are in very poor condition
- very limited signage, tough course as it crosses the road sereral times.
- too many dog walkers on the course. Some walking right toward you as you try to tee off.
- Good: other golfers were nice

Very poorly kept greens
Course is a cool course winding through neighborhoods but the greens were AWFUL. One home was actually just dirt and no grass. Would come back if they fixed it a little

Terrible Greens
***greens in horrific shape***
Great course but greens are in horrific shape. There are actually piles first on some as the grass is completely destroyed. Very hard to put as you have to go over large cracks in the greens

Not worth your money
This course is not challenging. Every hole is almost the same, 120 yds -220 yds straight away. The greens are literally dirt. Pace of play is slower than anywhere else I’ve ever played. Layout is all over the place. If you’ve never played here before you will get lost in between holes because there are almost no signs.

Great value
I’ve played this course since 1974. Been remodeled and conditions great. Cut and mowed down rough a lot to make more playable. Greens getting better.
