Armitage Golf Course

Played this course on a holiday Monday morning, so we expected the pace of play to be a little slower with more people on the course. However, on every single tee box we not only had to wait for the group ahead of us but also for the group ahead of them. Same with the group behind us - they would pull up behind us on the tee box as the group in front of us was still teeing off.

Not sure what was happening, but that many people waiting to tee off on every hole made for a very long round of golf!

Weather was great, but they were crowded, which led to slow play. It ended up being close to a 5 hour round, which is not what I am accustomed to at Armitage.

Beautiful course. Had a lot of fun. However Friday was packed. I was told they normally space 4 somes about 12 minutes apart and that Friday they were 6 minutes apart. This lead up to a very long wait at almost every single tee box, kind of getting out of rhythm. Aside from that. On a slow day I’m sure it is fantastic. Just was a bit overbooked in my opinion the day I played.

Staff was beyond rude and piled tee times around a local league which clogged the course up. Members of the league were annoyed by us being there at that time. And this was at 2pm on a Thursday!

Played mid-day in the 90 + temperatures. Not crowded, so we were able to play quickly. Great not being held up in the heat. We enjoyed the round, as the conditions were very good. I will gladly play there again.

Not sure why but things really slowed way down on the back nine. We'd get to the next tee box and the foursome in front of us had to wait to tee off. By 14 we, had 3 foursome ahead of us waiting to tee off. On a hot day, this just makes things miserable. Course was in great shape, fun top play, and the pro shop staff and starter were very pleasant. Maybe best to play this course on a weekday if this is what weekends are like.

Tees, fairways and greens in first class condition. Roughs were very challenging as expected. P

Armitage is always a good experience and I’m happy to call this my home course. Staff is always friendly, course is always well taken care of. They do a good job making sure pace of play is moving along. Great restaurant as well. Considering the space of land this course resides on, it’s fantastic value for what you pay.

This course gets a lot of play but is in great shape. It’s a well oiled machine.

If you like old style course layout, I.e. from green to tee box is close. And you like lined fairways with trees this is the place. Not a long course by any means, but fun course that you can score on. Love this place.
