Brown Fairway. I think this is the 9th fairway but it is typical of all fairways. Photo submitted by sherpaboy on 02/12/2022

Course is in good shape
Is there a way to get people to fix their ball marks on the greens? Signs on the green on the scorecard might help
Needs tender loving care
Course conditions are very poor. With some proper maintenance this could be an great course. As it currently stands, not worth playing .
Great layout and greens in good condition. If you dont hit fairways or greens, you will drop strokes.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Carlton Oaks Lodge & Country Club.
Other options
There’s bunch of other course to play, if you want to enjoy your round play elsewhere, this place has gone down hill hard since 2020, almost at point of no repair, they raised there rates yet the course conditions still the same. I don’t believe they added sand to bunkers in decades, the railroad ties are original. There’s really no scenic holes, everything on the course is overgrown. Hole 9 has tree blocking your view of fairway. Pete dye would be very upset at state of course.

This course has some great features. Rolling fairways heading into the wind. Some water holes.
This course is pretty good. You need to keep your ball in the fairway, otherwise it goes off. Down into the hills, you can't find your ball. There's some shorter holes that you hit over a Lake. Nice views in the mountains. Lots of trees , Falling leaves hard to find your ball under the leaves.hard course.

Pace of play horrendous. Course in bad shape
Pace of play was the slowest I've ever experienced, anywhere and the rangers did nothing to improve it despite multiple repeated attempts to ask them to help. I will never be returning. Also, the course was in really rough shape. The fairways were littered with dirt spots and the sand was hard as a rock

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!

Good Time Friday
Good course, friendly and professional staff. Got us out early, but play was very slow so it was still over a 5-hour round. Course was in good shape, a challenging but fair course.
Hello, gregorio10. Thank you for visiting us at Carlton Oaks Lodge & Country Club. We appreciate your rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Tough course, tough shape.
Price is fair but you get what you pay for. Subpar fairways, bare spots, very hard, or way to wet.
Putting greens are a hodge podge of different grass and sparsely covered. Bunkers/sand traps hard, rocks, no maintenance. Some of the holes are beyond challenging. Played here a couple times but think I am done.

Overseeding season
Course is obviously going through some seasonal work. Tee boxes are, for the most part, either overgrown, or bare dirt. Greens are receptive, but incredibly slow and bumpy.
In a month or so, it will hopefully be in better shape.

Pete Dye Disaster
Sad to see this Pete Dye design go to waste over the years.
$80 weekend rate used to be justified when the greens were kept but they’ve really let this place go and it breaks my heart… used to be a gem. But now the $80 green fees are just stupid for playing on a course with uncut/undulating tee boxes.. bunkers with packed mud and not sand.. and greens that roll at about a 7 on the stimp meter.
Really sad because the layout of this course is great. Lots of character and a really tough track with all the wind and clever pin positions they can do…
I love a hard track.. and this layout is difficult. But when you’re in a clover patch in the middle of the fairway that just makes he “difficulty of the course” unfair.
Sadly, I know I’ll be back.. but probably not for another 6-12 months to give this place a chance to receive the TLC it desperately needs.

Course Wouldn’t let me play my scheduled tee time
Booked a 6:03 tee time online. Showed up at 6:03am and the front desk told me they didn’t have time to get me out there all day. Asked me if I was ok to play at 3:00pm?
Pretty disappointing, I play here all the time. Obviously 3:00pm won’t work, as I got here at 6:00am to play. Course is never busy so surprised they’re so ok with just sending people away.
If I was able to book a tee time online, I should be able to play at that time.

Course in rough shape, but decent value
Course is in rough shape. Greens are fine, but tee boxes were bumpy, uneven and uncut. Fairways and rough had significant bare patches all over. The golf range is pretty sad. But for the money ($49 including cart on as Monday), can’t complain too much. Any day on the golf course with friends is better than no golfing. Overall a challenging course in terms of layout.
