Water's Edge Golf Club

Good course. Fairways need some TLC around the greens and they need a marshal maintaining pace of play.

Waters Edge is in okay shape however it does suffer from an extreme amount of play. The majority of golfers don't even attempt taking care of the course. Freshly cut greens and we still had to fix quite a number of ball marks from previous days of play. Divots in the fairways - some so big and deep that they could be replaced. Sand bottles on both sides of the cart and patently obvious most golfers don't even lift a finger to fill divots that can't be replaced. Lucky us - our two some had four very nice drives in the fairway finish in non sanded divots. Went through four bottles of sand during the round and probably could have used four more.....and I don't make much of a divot if any at all.

Greens were smoothly rolling just fine - just tad slower than most greens I've played over the past couple of months. Very hit and miss sand traps....mainly miss as several trap hard pan/sand never machine raked up by the grounds crew. Traps do have rakes. Water boxes are still not operational. Tee box conditions all over the place....some really should be closed down to allow them to be repaired and grow back in. Some tees were moved forward or back a tee boxes from scorecard yardages....plus of a few tee boxes played today were crowned so getting level teeing area presented some issue.

Nice range facilities if you warm up and but again my pet peeve - a large practice green with sticks/no holes. Given the very early hour - we teed off at 615am so we had a well paced round of slightly under 3 hours. When the tee sheet fills up the course easily becomes 4 hours plus plus....and in the past we've experienced 5 hour plus rounds several weekend afternoons.

Didn't ask but it appears the halfway house is open later in the day - you can access it from behind the 5th tee box, after 6 on your way to 7th tee as well as after 9..... Make sure when you check in the pro-shop to ask if the halfway house or a beverage cart is roving....and if they are not you have to stock up/fill your water Yeti....the course doesn't return to the clubhouse until the19th hole! Shower in the locker room is closed.

Clubhouse guys and the ranger/cart guy were very welcoming and desired us to have great experience. We did. Recommend play 3.7 stars $35/$40 value.

The only issue we had, and it is kind of out of their control, was the leaves were falling off the trees early and the course was covered with them. This made it very difficult to find your ball if you were slightly off the fairway and sometimes even on the fairway.

Greens and fairways in great shape. Fun layout. Challenging but if you can hit it straight you’ll be fine!

Nice course, overall in good shape. People need to replace their ball marks in the greens, some holes were pretty bad. The Ranger needs to act when pace of play is poor. We had a foursome in front of us that were drinking heavily and tore the crap out of the course. They tipped over a cart (on the 13th hole tee box), drove carts over the tees boxes, took several tee shots on each hole, threw clubs and left several large divots in the fairways by taking Happy Gilmore like shots. It was pretty bad playing behind them and the ranger was oblivious.
