Shambolee Golf Course

This course was absolutely awful. The worker inside was cranky and not friendly at all. The greens were terrible, the fairways weren’t fairways and the pace of play was as slow as an elderly race. The drive up to the course is a big lead up to disappointment. If I’m spending over 30 dollars to play, they should use the money on the course.

Great Shape, Great Price and always fun to play.

They need to clean up their carts and better maintain or replace.

Great value

Course is in great shape. Sand traps are wet and need grooming as weather permits. Enjoyed the round. I’ll be back soon.

Pretty easy

Sand traps are a mess. No turning the sand to make it soft. Also no raking.

wild and windy

While the wind was the major factor in our game, the dealing with the fall leaves was a problem too. We were slowed down by looking for our golf balls. Course is in good shape.

Good value for the cost

The tee boxes and a few other areas were recently aerated. Several small River stones were laying about that hindered a few drives and other shots. The greens were smaller than some others I have played but ran fairly true.

Was a pleasant experience overall.
