Winter Golf
For winter golf the course was in pretty good condition. Greens rolled well and faster than expected. A couple fairways were a little rough, and it would be nice if people would fix their pitch marks on the greens.
Winter golf...
Great shape for the first week of Feb. One of my favorite coarses to play.
Professional!
Always a great time @ Oglebay… great facility, professional staff and knowledgeable Pro…. “Shane” Would recommend all three courses to anyone who plays golf…
Rude staff
Clubhouse staff were beyond rude. I witnessed the lady at the front counter speak condescending to 3 groups in a row.
Tee boxes and greens
I play here frequently and I love the course. However, the tee boxes were in poor shape, needing moved, and the divots needed filled with sand, While that's not all on maintenance staff (golfers take some pride) moving the boxes around a little more would help. The greens also had a lot of unrepaired pitch marks. Cmon folks, fix your ball marks, I like playing here because of how well it is usually kept.
Beautiful and fair
The Palmer Course at Oglebay is pleasing to the eye with enough stuff to get in your way so you want to return and play it again. Sure wish I can get back there this year.
Friendly employees, great layout
Very nice track, perfect condition, forgiving off the tee,
Pace, refreshments, etiquette…terrible.
There needs to be some adjustments made on tee times or adequate rangers in place enforcing some sort of proper etiquette/pace. Every hole on the back 9 had a minimum 15min wait, with multiple groups on every tee box. The “cart music” has gotten ridiculous. This isn’t a concert and it’s not a $20 track. The “snack shack” located off 7&13 tee boxes was closed at 4pm and we saw one drink cart all day. It took us over 5hrs to play 14holes and we called it quits and came in. Very unenjoyable (partial) round of golf.
