Slow Play

The course does not monitor tee times. Two people had indicated that they were early for there tee time and than proceeded to take our tee time.

The people behind us were rude and would hit the ball when we were still waiting for the two groups in front of us to get off the green.

Poorly run, would not recommend.

Always enjoy playing Rob Roy, great nine hole gem. Be warned though this course attracts newbies who have no idea what keeping pace means.

Never again

Never again will I attempt to golf at Rob Roy - made a reservation for a tee time on a Sunday ahead of time (2 days in advance). When we got there the day of our tee time, they said they didn't have us in their system and we couldn't golf since our tee time was taken. I asked how I can get my money back since I already paid for 2 golfers and a cart and I was to call Golfnow to get that refunded.

When I called Golfnow, they wanted to refund me but first we had to call Rob Roy to confirm that I didn't actually golf that day. We tried calling them 4 times together with the Golfnow rep on the phone and nobody from the club house answers or is available.

I will most likely have to drive back to this place to beg someone to refund me, which is absurd. Never again!

Longer Pars, Pretty Course, Well Kept

This course was a fun course to pay on. It offers a variety of lengths with mostly par 4s, and a couple 3s/5s. The course itself goes around/through a neighborhood and it very nicely kept. A few of the holes feature water hazards. Staff is friendly and helpful. For our round on a Saturday afternoon the pace of play was average due to a larger, more inexperienced group ahead of us but overall enjoyable.

Good course for moderate player

Course located in a neighborhood. Houses line the course throughout. Fairways are narrow and 300 - 480 yd drives. Several waterways to drive over. Provides a nice challenge and fast play.
