Slow Pace & Sandy Bumpy Greens
8 min tee time intervals do not help the slow play at this challenging and nice course. The round was almost 5.5 hrs. At times, 3 groups were waiting on tee boxes. There is no ranger to control the pace. Never could get into any kind of rhythm with the pace. Also, there was no mention of sand on the greens on the website, nor by the pro shop & starter. The greens were SLOW and bumpy.
just don't understand their tee box positions. The white tees in many cases is difficult but the gold tee boxes are very short. It would be a lot more fun and faster play. 5 plus hours is not fun for anyone.
Bear Creek
Greens were rolling great. Pace of play was slow. Waited on every hole for 1 or 2 foursomes in front of us. No one on the course to tell players to pick up the pace. Overall the course was in good shape.
So So
Super nice staff!
Tee boxes marginal, fairways fairly good shape, several greens had quite a bit of dead areas.
Too many tee time available
Need to stop booking tee times 5 minutes apart if they are going to rush you to hit despite people standing in the fairway. Had to wait at every hole. Ranger was on his high horse all day telling people to hurry up. Also greens are in terrible condition. $60 for this course is a joke. Should be around half that.
Fun
It’s a great course, but was showing a little bit of wear from the bad weather we’ve had
Disappointing visit
My wife and I thought we would try a new course in the area. Very disappointing with the layout of the course along with the heavy neighborhood. Traffic. Greens were in subpar condition and frankly homes are way too close to fairways. Will not recommend.
Great Shape
Played On a Friday 12:54 T time
Course was in Great Shape
Played as a 3 some
Pace was fast no waiting
T box fairways and greens were fantastic
All bunkers were raked
Players need to repair their divots
Fix yours and find two more to repair
Great tract
An enjoyable course that can be played as long or short as you like. Lots of variety in the holes. Lots of fun to play.
Long slow day
Not a fan however a lot of my impression of the day was formed by the fact that I was paired with three players of NO skill who insisted on playing back tees but none of whom could break 150. Not the course's fault but a marshal would have been helpful as we really fell behind the group in front. and I felt really bad for the people behind us as well. I suggested we let people go though but the 3 were no comprehendez. The course winds its way through residential development. Again, not a fan of OOB stakes 10 yards off a fairway. All that said, the course was in good shape and presents a good test. I would suggest anyone who plays play from age/skill appropriate tees but I sggest everywhere, all the time. it is in the economic interests of golf courses to maintain pace of play
Great course
Best public course greens around. Worst thing about the course is they don’t charge enough. No reason this course should be cheaper than the junk courses that surround it. Low prices bring out people who do not respect the course. Otherwise it’s a great course. Not very forgiving which is nice
