Overpriced and not worth the money

Course was 240$. Conditions were mid and lazily kept. All of this club’s resources goes into marketing and ads. Club house, bars and staff were all just smoke and mirrors, while the course itself was a subpar. No interesting holes combined with poor bunkers and unwelcoming staff made this experience not worth it.

Beautiful Course But.... a little disappointed.

I do not like the fact that there's not a break between the 9th-10th hole (far from the clubhouse) & the beverage machine was out of order. The beverage cart didn't come around until we were around 12th or 13th hole and it was about 100° out. Good thing the nice gentleman going around periodically with cups of ice water.

But the staff out by the course were very friendly.

Below expectation

First time playing this course!

Tee box not very good!!

Fairways were very good!

Greens about 8 1/2 speed and just ok!

The cups had been there for at least 2 or 3 days!

Course layout good!

For the price 100$, you could find better!

Average at best

I played this course 20 years ago and it ranked as one of my favorites at the beach, but not anymore. The course and club house are showing their age. The course and tees are scruffy. I just don’t think the value is there, for $113 I expected little more - I would just as rather play my local muni for 1/2 the price.

Beautiful course except!

played in a two day tournament this past weekend along with approximately 100 other women. After reading the previous reviews I was very optimistic that we would have a good time! Well, the tee boxes were fine, the fairways were fine but the greens had just been aerated 3 days prior to our play. Why? Why would you do that? They knew we were coming well in advance. Why choose that week to aerate. I understand that greens have to be aerated at some point, but choosing that week when they had guaranteed tee times for 100+ and a reserved clubhouse both Friday and Saturday was insulting. The greens were not “putt able ” on our practice day, Wednesday and only marginally better on Friday and Saturday. The cart staff, fantastic! So helpful. The food was good, but we were all shoved into a too small dining area for our two dining events.

Thank you. I won’t return.

Great course but so slow.

The course condition was fantastic, so was the layout. Unfortunately they do split tee so once we got to 10 we waited about 10 minutes for every single shot. 5.25 hour round. One note, me and the 3 others I joined in a group booked 7 am tee times. We were bumped to 7:08 off the back nine. So much for booking the first tee time. Met some great people though. I wouldn't do it again though if it is split tee times. Sure would if it wasn't. $140 is a bit steep for a 5 hour round.

Great day at Barefoot Dye

Had a great day with my son and his friend. The course was in fantastic shape and was a challenge. The pace was great and the staff was really nice. I would not recommend for high handicaps but experienced golfers will have a great time here.

One of the BEST in MB!

First time playing the Dye course. Great design and fun to play, conditions were great. Greens were awesome. Had 7:25AM tee time as a single and got paired with a twosome. We finished the round in less than 4 hours easily. Will definitely play this course again when back in town!

Great layout, way too much sand.

Greens were super quick and smooth. However, I recommend you play from the whites unless you are a scratch golfer. Sand bunkers are everywhere! Step ladder needed for some of these bunkers.

interesting…

this course has potential. i loved the layout and the tee box selection. the fairways were beautiful and the scenery was excellent, however the greens even though they appeared beautiful they were too slow for that price. when you spend 250 bucks the greens should have you crying how fast they were, it was quite the opposite. it was too easy. overall i would not recommend this course at that price with greens that slow. speed those greens up and it’s worth every penny.

Great Course

Played the Fazio Course at Barefoot for the 2nd time. I cannot decide whether it or the Love Course is my favorite of the Barefoot Courses, but it is def more player friendly than Love. Fairways and corridors are generally pretty forgiving, but lined with very deep fairway bunkers. Alot of courses the fairway bunkers are relatively flat and shallow. Not the case here.The greens were generally average in size and again, surrounded by big deep bunkers. The course is VERY well bunkered and one of the biggest defenses. The course was in really good shape. Fairways, and tees nicely overseeded, as were the greens which rolled at a decent speed and really smooth. All in all a really fun course to play. Probably over priced at $110. But most resort golf is over priced these days.
