Tough Course

I like the course. The greens roll so nice and the views are beautiful. The course is difficult for average or below golfers. The Roadrunner 9 is much easier than Rattler.

If I played the course again I think I would get the hang of it but the first time is a tester.

One of the best courses we have played

Eddie the starter is the man. 17 years at his job. We were paired up with a great twosome yesterday and the pace was excellent. Course (all of it) was in excellent condition.

Love this course

Everything was great except pace of play. . Didn't get to play the last hole because they wanted the cart back. And we had to wait on the group ahead. Need a Marshall.

Tough but worth it

Tough and beautiful shotmaker layout. Challenges everywhere. Good to pay attention to everything if you’ve not played before. We had an experienced partner in our four.

Great food and drinks following

Surprising and Dissapointing

We played on 3-22-22. We had a reservation scheduled for the day before through GolfNow bout cancelled it and scheduled it for the following day due to the forecasted 40 mile per hour winds.

Instead of receiving a refund, GolfNow provided voucher codes to use in the future. What a joke.

Upon arriving at the course, the computer system was down and we could not check in? We were asked to come back to the clubhouse after the round and settle up.

They had one beverage service person to cover the 27 hole layout. And to finish things off, the restaurant was closed, so we went elsewhere to have dinner after our round. Now you may understand why I have this review the subject title.

Star Pass Golf Review

Rattlesnake & Roadrunner challenging 18. Best value for your money. Coyote was a fun 9 holes, but they rip you off on the fees by charging $25/person for a cart.
