Overpriced For Playing on Halloween & Aerated Greens

We were playing 1 day from November 1, on aerated greens - and they are charging nearly $70. ($69) Ridiculous & absurb!

To tell you how absurb this fee was, the best course in the St. Louis area (Annbriar) charges $70 in the summer months. This course is no Annbriar.

Because of their high fee, the course was not very crowded and the pace of play was great. A good thing for us.

All the greens were punched but it didn't appear they put any sand on them. A little strange. Overall, the condition of the course was good/average.

Another thing this course needs badly is better yardage markers. No 150 yard pole. No red, white and blue stakes. Just extrememly faded markers on the cart path and hard to find markers in the fairway. This only slows down play.

I feel the layout of these 2 nines (Meramec/Woodlands) is very good. I think the Woodlands nine is the most picturesque in the St. Louis area. Besides the opening 2 holes of the Meramec, the other 7 are very solid.

The staff is very friendly and the course did have a ranger. However, this was not needed because no one was on the course.

Great course for the money

Well maintained, very pretty course! Layout is a little confusing for first-timers I think, with a few holes that require carts to double back from the tee to the fairway, but not a huge problem. Had a lot of fun!

Too slow, bunched-up tee times

They booked way too many teetimes to close together. A round of golf should not take five hours. That’s a completely unpleasant pace of play.

Not worth the money

I have played this course for multiple years. The quality of the course has gone down significantly. I don’t plan on playing here anytime soon.

Course going downhill

This used to be one of the nicest in the area but no longer. They charge a premium price but the conditions do not reflect that.The greens are beat up, t-boxes need to be cut, and overall not in the condition it used to be. Either lower your price or improve the conditions.

Good to get back

I hadn’t played at Tap in a number of years and it was good to get back. Tees and fairways needed to be mowed but that was because they got a lot of rain the day before... they were in good shape though. The greens were ok... very soft with some patchy spots but were overall puttable.

Course is in great shape

The course is in great shape from tees to greens. I love that they have 27 holes available to give you more playing options. I would highly recommend playing here if you haven’t already.

Tx kid in town

The supposed group of 8 made the front nine a brutal pace. After stopping to get a beverage at the turn, pace was great. Most groups that were in front of us in front didn’t play the nine we did.
