Great Gorge Golf Club - Quarry/Rail Course

Greens are fast & difficult. Good challenge. A couple of blind shots. Beautiful scenic holes over water, through valleys. Golf cart died on hold 12 took over 30 minutes for the course to provide a new cart. Had to walk a bowl and a half and let multiple groups play through. Round took over five hours no apology for someone saying sorry at any point. After the round was completed spoke to the pro shop. No managers were available on a Sunday which I find hard to believe. Car paths was like going on and off road trail.

It took us 5+ hours to finish it. There is no ranger going around—just slow players, back to back, like train cars.

People don't yell fore even they are hitting off course and young kids with 0 golf attire and no etiquette.

However, Staffs are all super nice!

Very friendly people, layout was very nice and clean course, little muddy on some holes because of the couple days of rain in a row however, overall the greens and the tea box were in great shape

Course is in great condition even with the recent rain. Greens were trickier than normal. Highly recommend.

I arrived 30mins before tee time and went to the counter. They told me it was all set without even telling me there would be a delay. I went to the starter, but they just fold me to wait. How long should I wait? There is nothing to talk about, and the attitude of the employee who are talking is so disrespectful that it cannot be described.

I was a little nervous when I pulled in. Parking lot, buildings near entrance and driveway look like a ghost town. Was pleasantly surprised once I got to the club house.

the overall conditions are very good. The Greens are not your friend. Very very fast and for some reason the flag is placed so if you missed your putt the ball will keep on rolling. most rolled to the other side of the green.

Was hoping closer to the time we tee off that the rates instead of rising would’ve lowered. At the rate we were charge it was not in any way enjoyable as we rushed our play because of the high winds/gust

Let me start off by saying, the staff for starters and the pro shop were FABULOUS, great character of those hired. Course is beautiful, amazing views!

But the round was absolutely intolerable from a waiting standpoint. There were 4 groups hitting off hole 16, I know because I ended up driving past them as I needed to finish the round early. The group I was behind REFUSED to hit a ball until the group in front of them were completely finished on the whole. I’m talking 450+ yards away a too, wouldn’t tee off.

It’s Sunday and Rangers are a MUST on weekends. No excuse to get that backed up or have people incompetent of how to keep pace moving. But like I said, if you have all the time in the world, this is a fabulous place to play.

Something happened with golf now app and the course, I had a 12:10 tee time and when I showed up they did not have my reservation at all. I showed them my confirmation number and they fit in our group 4 when they were already overbooked. Very happy with the course and thankful the hour and a half drive wasn't wasted.

I’ve played this course one too many times and my guys said let’s play for Easter Sunday. Should’ve chose another course.

Typical windy day. As usual in Vernon.

Course is in standard condition for April. I decided to leave this for all those golfer that need clubs.

I left my clubs in another city because I am returning - shocker I called and asked do you rent clubs. Pro shop said yeah. How much, 25.00 that’s kind of cheap but I said whatever didn’t have so let’s do it.

Arrived to check in, guy says clubs are over there, but keep in mind there not anything special. I walk over, bunch of old clubs. Guy says yeah we just use clubs people leave behind… AND YOUR CHARGING people… I play 8 hopes and decides to leave, embarrassing to pay 100.00 and get rented clubs that are 20 years old, dirty at that.

Indigent like this course for a few other reasons and now I doubt I’ll be back to Vernon playing Great Gorge. Good luck to anyone renting clubs and if the staff reads this. Try and assemble some decent clubs before charging anyone.
