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.

Greens are a disgrace. They should actually be paying people to play here. Don’t throw away your money.

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.

Greens were dead

When we arrived they said the greens were rough and to use a 2 putt rule. As we played we discovered every green was dead and brown. Unputtable! There was no prior notice of these conditions with the option of not golfing there. Very disappointed. Not worth the $100 fee.

Also after nine there was almost impossible to get snacks or beer. Went in through the main door and it was a members only lounge with 3 people sitting there. The bartender was 2 busy to serve us and told us it was for members only. I actually felt bad for the staff as I’m sure they have been taking a lot of the complaints about the conditions of the greens.

I won’t go back

Greens nearly dead

there was no notice that the greens were totally burnt up with lots of bare dirt/mud sections scattered all over the greens.....no. 13 will probably have to be completely rebuilt.

Tee-to green, the course was in its usual fine condition.

Certainly not worth $101, and very unlikely to improve much for several months .

Usually play it once each year and enjoy the Pete Dye quirks and railroad ties.
