Carlton Oaks Lodge, Ascend Hotel Collection

Been about a year since I’d played here. Was hoping conditions would have improved. Sadly, the course is even worse off than I’d remembered.

Nice check in staff, spectacular cart staff, greens are nice, the rest of the course really is rough. This place used to be special.

The condition of this course is fair, especially the fairways could be in a better condition. The greens are mostly in good to excellent condition. Green fee should be lower for the quality of this course.

This was a difficult with challenging holes. it's a shame that it's so poorly maintained otherwise this would be a great track. Greens are decent, but fairways are terrible. It's not even that people aren't repairing their divots, there are entire areas where there is little or no grass and you are hitting off mud. Given conditions, this course shouldn't be priced what it is. Starter was friendly and all the staff was nice but man, brutal upkeep.

Laser bounced off cart with bumpy cart ride. Course needs work sooner the better for their planned remodel.

Course has huge potential but from what it seems like is that since the course is eventually being shutdown for renovations they have let some of the course fall apart. All the bunkers on the course are in terrible condition and are either hard or dirt bunkers. A lot of trails are just dirt and the rough is just that rough… would help if they would bush hog the rough spots. The greens and tee boxes are nice along with the fairways in front of the greens with a nice putting green at the front of the property and the layout of the course is nice but make sure to bring enough balls if you have a slice or hook case there is not a lot of forgiveness on a few of the holes. Overall I enjoy getting out in the course for a challenging round of golf.

Tee boxes and greens were good, some gopher/squirrel damage on the fairways = lost balls. My partner took a drop and it went into a gopher hole! Hilarious. We started backing up three parties on 8, and a call to the pro shop got a Marshall out there in ten minutes to sort it out. All friendly and had a good time. 3 hr 50 min.

For $40 you can play on carpet style greens and and dead grass the design of the course is fun but the course is just beat to shreds

Played Saturday and Sunday. Saturday was slow 5:45. Sunday was 3:45. Guess it just depends who you're behind. Bunkers, most only had a thin layer of sand. Fairways are avg for the area. Rough might be hard pan, loose sand and gopher holes except around greens. Tee's, greens, and areas around greens are in good shape. We saw beverage cart about every 45min. Driving range is worn mats, putting green is decent sized with different elevations. All in all challenging layout, approach shots that are short can be tricky with well placed trees or mounds.

Had a GolfNow Hot Deal for $43. Had played out here in 30 years. It’s rough around the edges but fine if you keep it straight down the middle. Greens maybe a bit furry - hit it 1/3 harder than you want to to get it to the hole.

Difficult course, great pro shop people, cart girl very nice. Major need, fix sand in bunkers around the greens, also, send out marshall for slow players.
