Stay away!

Greens are shaggy and SLOW! Pace is ridiculous. 6 hour round! They booked us in white in the middle of an outing. When we showed up they said we had to wait for the outing. 30 mins after my scheduled time they moved us to the red course. No beverage cart either! Never again!!!!!

Great value very nice course

My friends and I have played both courses, and like Red better than the White course. The staff is very congenial and the clubhouse well maintained and staffed.

Horrible staff

From the first tee to the 18th green the staff were rude. We teed of at 6:10 but had a 6 am tee time. There was a threeesome in front of us and a threesome behind us. We were four. We finished our round in 4 hours and 40 min, however were told three time by the Ranger that we were playing too slow.

Gleneagles White

I used to play this course regularly, this was the first time in 5-6 years. It shouldn't be difficult at 6200 yards but it's not that difficult to get in trouble if you aren't hitting the ball straight (which was my case this day). The greens have some slope and pace although they were still pock marked with aeration scars (they still ran pretty good). The sand traps were horrible, very little sand. The place was jam packed and the round was slow.

Caught behind a few outings

Several outings had a shotgun start about an hour after my open tee time. Unfortunately there were delays on several holes, and one par three had 4 groups on it at one time. The twosome who was matched up with us actually quit after about 11 holes since the pace was so slow. I really wish we had been warned about the outings when we booked on golf now. The greens also caused a lot of putts to bounce, presumably due to recent aeration.

Putt for dough

The course was in great shape, considering all the play it gets. If you hit the ball straight you will reap the rewards. Beautiful tree lined holes. If your game is putting this course is for you, very challenging . I will definetly play this track again

Memorial Day Out

The course seemed to be busy, but my friend who plays there says that the course can be pretty packed some days regardless of it being Memorial Day. The course was pretty straight for the most part, but we seemed to always be waiting for the folks in front of us and pushed by the ones behind. After about 13 holes the ranger finally came by and moved some players to the red course to hustle the pace of play.

Great course to play! November golf can be tricky so there was a lot of leaves, wind and a little chilly!
No ball cleaners kind of sucked but other than that it was fine!

Great Value

The white course of Glen Eagles has a really nice challenging and scenic Layout. We played on a Sunday morning. Our tee-time was 11:45, but were not able to tee-off for another 45 min due to slow play of the League.
I would recommend the course highly if it were not for slow play. Took over 6 hours!

White Course in wonderful shape

Except for the rough areas (no sprinklers in the rough so it's sparse/inconsistent/dry/hard pan "ish") Gleneagles was in the best shape I've ever seen it yesterday and I've been playing there since 1978 at least once a season. Great job guys!! Greens were fast and smooth - no aeration and leaves were pretty well blown off most greens. Fairways were some of the nicest played this season and their bunker renovations were well thought out and really nice. Very well maintained and for $23 it was a steal......a nice surprise it was in that good of shape and the white is a fun old school course to play with lots of hills and dales. Don't get above the hole.....a 3 putt is likely. A solid 4 stars plus (4.25 in my book).

Get what you pay for

Played this course for $15. So at that price I cannot complain. However, the course is average. Old dilapidated carts. No beverage cart, slow pace of play (5h) Soda machines out of order and staff being cold towards golfnow purchasers were my complaints.

The course is in ok shape. Long par4s. Ground was hard because of weather, not the fault of the course. Sloping greens on the white course make putts difficult. But overall a fair course.

Just average

A pleasant place to play, not too challenging, but nothing special. If your idea of average is Cog Hill 1 or 3, then this place is maybe just slightly above average. The course is a bit scruffy around the edges, but the condition of the fairways and greens themselves were fine. Paid $31 for a mid-afternoon tee time, but I've seen the greens fee higher at other times, and I'm not sure I'd pay $50 to play this course.

Ropes around greens

There are ropes surrounding many of the tees and greens making it difficult for anyone with any sort of handicap. Even tho they issue handicap flags, the ropes make it very difficult. They might as well not issue the flags. Some of the sand traps have almost no sand.

Straight Forward Course, Nice Shape, Slow

We happen to book our tee times on the White course (there are two 18's here) unknowing that there was a golf outing underway at the same time which took up the entire Red course. As a result, it seemed they crammed all the regular players onto the White course - perhaps even to the point of overbooking. We started 15 minutes late - not too bad. Immediately, we were the third group on the second hole - a par 3. By the time we got to hole 4 - it was an hour already and there, again, were 3 groups waiting to play a 360-yard par 4. This was shaping up to be a 5+ hour round. About this time, the shotgun start outing on the Red course finished. We immediately took advantage and jumped over to begin play on hole 6 of the Red course - a decision that probably saved us an hour and a half. Several rangers passed us by and never said a discouraging word - they knew what we did and why! That was great, as we had the entire course to ourselves. BUT... had we stuck it out on the White course as scheduled, it would have been a miserable day. Course in very nice shape - mostly very narrow true fairways, but ample width rough which was trimmed down pretty well. All-in-all, things turned out well.
