Golf now didn’t let them know

I had a tee time I used credits for and prepaid and the staff stated GolfNow didn’t let them know. I have emails and bank activity that say 4:40 tee time July 13. Made it look like I didn’t pay and they didn’t seem pleased. However I did pay. Pace of play was awful. Other than those two things it was beautiful

Great value and course conditions

The course is probably in the best shape I have ever seen it. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend Wilmar, it is not a terribly long course by any means but you better be ready to make some golf shots. I would definitely recommend giving Wilmar a visit.

Solid course

Wil-Mar is a decent course, especially if you get out super early before it gets crowded. We finished our round in under 3 hours and I was paired with a random. Greens are pretty rough and tee boxes torn up, but it’s a high foot traffic course so that’s expected from me already. I think this is the last year the course is open

Great surprise

I booked a tee time on a Saturday early morning . This was the first time I played at Wil Mar and had not big expectations as the course ‘ s reviews weren't great . Well what a pleasant surprise . Course is in great shape, both fairways and greens are great , green were fast (nice!). Course layout is not bad at all and the staff was quite friendly.
On the bad side , I heard the course was sold to a developer and they will build homes starting in about 6-8 months . What a pity!

Nice Greens

Second time out to this course and definitely not my last. Was surprised that the course was not that wet considering a storm blew through just the night before. The greens were true and if your chip is medium to low flight then the greens are almost impossible to hold. Due to the wetness I practiced the 90 degree rule (even though no one told me to) and on 18 was told by a marshall that is was cart path only. I sort of just stared blankly and said OK. Other than that it was another great round. Will be putting this course on my rotation of courses in the area.
