18 scorched greens

I am a local, who plays this course several times a year. I booked a time on golf now and showed up to find 18 scorched greens. I had no warning that the greens were dead. I noticed on the shuttle ride in that the 18th green was dead. The Proshop tried to assure me that it wasn’t every green. But it was every green. The greens were literally scorched earth. The dirt was cracking and flaking. The Proshop tried to act like every green in the area suffered the same consequences from an unexpected heat wave. It was unusually hot in March, but I can assure you that all of the courses that I play in the area had enough sense to increase their watering schedule. The greens keeper should be fired. It was a waste of money. We had to play a 2 putt rule because it was senseless to try to putt.

In addition, the starter tried to send me out as a five some some because he was too stupid to read the receipts. This guy Levi usually has alcohol on his breath by noon. Some foreigner showed up on the wrong day and thought that he had a 12:32 tee time. After a 10 minute delay and a trip back to the Proshop, I figured it out. In the end, if the starter would have just looked at the receipt, it was obvious. When I called him out for not looking at the receipts,, he told me that “they were hiring and I could work there if I wanted “ sarcastically. I won’t be back. When I book a round for $100+, I don’t expect to be insulted for pointing out the obvious. And I expect greens that I can actually putt on. It was a wasted round. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place.

Disappointed with greens and stuff was rude

Was looking forward to playing this course only to discover the greens were in atrocious condition; essentially putting in dirt. Many of the sand traps were filled with water, even though it’s been very hot, well above average.

Pace of play was very good. Staff was not friendly and when my brother went to speak with some in the pro shop following our round, the staff member didn’t acknowledge him.

Nice Day Out

Very friendly staff when arriving. Got off at the booked time and played in about 31/2 hours. Greens rolled true and fast. Fairways were plush. Lots of mounding and patchy winter grass if you get off the fairway. Drove out from Riverside and was worth the drive. Thanks for a pleasant day.

Disappointed

We’ve played the Dye course numerous times in the past and always enjoyed the layout. However the reference to “some” damage to the greens is more accurately described as all greens are in poor condition. Between putts and chips, more than 1/2 your shots are impacted so you may as well go to a driving range if you’re trying to get your early season game in. I haven’t experienced similar heat stress issues as other area courses in the week I’ve been in the area.

We appreciate your candid feedback and are sorry your round didn’t reflect the quality we aim to deliver.

Early heat stress has impacted several greens, and we’re working toward improved conditions soon.

Greens are just dirt , especially the front 9.

Traps are tough. Greens slope towards traps in many places.. green surfaces are mostly dried mud.. playing partners paid less than half what I paid, and we all paid golfnow.

I never do this, but i would like a refund, please.

Weaving through the neighborhood

I will score better the next time I play here. Surprise traps and water for first timer looking into morning sun. Friendly staff. Hard to find first tee. Great pace of play at 0740.

Unbelievably poor

Read the reviews and heed the warnings! Greens were unplayable at best. I didn’t bother reading the reviews… my bad! Play literally ANYWHERE else!

Terrible Greens

I would not recommend this course. All of the greens were destroyed by a poor greens keeper decision to fertilize during the heat wave 2 weeks ago. They are 90% dirt. And they do not tell you at the pro shop. They do not give you a discount. I thought that was a very poor approach. The greens fees should be 1/4 of the actual cost and all players should be informed of the poor conditions.

Extremely disappointed in GolfNow and the. purse. hair andnseitch

Got to the course this morning, and as we are dropping off our clubs we are told all the greens were dead because of a mixup at the course. And dead was actually being kind. I will never come back to this course again, or recommend this course to anyone. I had told so matnpeopke over the years to play this course, but never again.

GolfNow should be ashamed for not telling its meme era about this course condition. And the course should be embarrassed about not telling customers until it is too late to go some place else to golf. Obviously both entities are more

Concerned about taking money from customers than doing the right/honorable thing and being honest about the deplorable playing conditions.

Lost respect for both entities stealing my money.

Nice place to place without paying too much

First time here.

I liked it a lot. The fairways and greens were in excellent condition. There is no rough. So it is not a very hard course. If you play the golds many of the par fours are quite challenging as they are long and the wind can make it longer.

Overall, for $140.00 with cart and range balls (all you want) it’s. A good value for the area.

Nobody was on the course so we played in a little over three hours.

Decent Value

Not a great course, but a decent value. Layout is fine but a bit boring. Conditions are satisfactory except the bunkers, which are terrible -- mostly mud and clay, very little sand. Staff is friendly. Facilities are almost non-existent. Looks like the facilities were designed to be temporary, and now they have tried to make the best of it.

Worst Greens Ever

On the way from the parking lot to the clubhouse, the shuttle driver says, “we had a little oopsie and lost the greens in the hot winter. Groups typically take auto 2-putts.”

I get it’s been hot, but wow, they are unplayable. Like they forgot to water them for weeks at a time. They really need to shut the course down for a month and re-seed and grow new greens.

They should tell you this or at least not charge you $100+ to play. I feel duped.

Unacceptable greens

Greens were dead. Should be some type of warning before booking. Have played course before and conditions were excellent last year. No range balls available before tee time. Hopefully better next year when we return.

Poor Condition But High Price

Sadly, Alice and Pete Dye would be sad to see how poorly maintained their eponymous course is now. Dirt greens, patchy fairways and minimal sand in bunkers make the course unworthy of its designers. Let’s hope someone takes better care of it in the future.
