Hole 1 Photo submitted by mjbrady on 05/25/2013
No food or beverage service. Ranger was helpful in bringing bottles of water to our foursome
Course was fine. No beverage nor food availability. Ranger was very nice as he delivered 4 bottles of water. It was a warm day when we played
Course was in poor condition. Tee boxes and fairways were bad. Also no beverage nor food available. Not the best course at shanty creek, as some have said
Great up north course
I am a season pass holder and have been for the past two years. Great layout, greens are in great shape. It gets treated poorly by people who compare it to the other courses that cost 2-4 times what Summit cost to play which is not fair - you get what you pay for.
The course is closed on Wed and Thur for maintenance, which is too bad because while I like the course, it is closed 28% of the week, which just doesn't work for me anymore. The groundskeeper had some pretty strange pin locations this Fall - hole 8 the pin was put on the top of a hill on the green (see pic). A few weeks ago the pin on 16 was put on the front of the green were even if you were below the hole, you could not stop the ball unless it went in the hole.
Having said that, it is a great course for the money if it fits your schedule.
Schuss mountain
Really like this course. Play a few times a year and it is pretty much in great shape. This past Saturday was probly our most disappointing outing. There were 2 foursomes and a twosome in front of us. We figured it was going to be kind of slow. Well, by the 6th hole the 2 foursomes decided to “join up since they were all friends.” Luckily someone called the pro shop and the ranger went out and split them up. Apparently they were very rude to the ranger. He indicated to us they not only were friends but members. Shame on them who think rules don’t apply to them. I applaud the ranger for calling them out. Thankful they only played 9 holes. We got the back 9 done in less than 2 hours.
Legend in rough shape
The Legend needs some TLC. Many areas of dead grass, rough tee boxes, etc…. Greens were ok though.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us, dstephanic. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting The Legend Golf Course, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Fall golf
Played the Summit course after getting a hot deal. Word from other golfers is that other courses within the resort are better playing courses. Pace of play was extremely slow, taking more than 5 1/2 hours on late Saturday morning.
Rock filled sand traps
Course was in great shape. Major problem are the sand traps which contain lots of small rocks. There are also many holes with blind shots. At what they charge, $169, I would expect pristine sand traps and better design to eliminate blind shots. We won't be back.
