Lions Paw
Played in the morning on a week day dew sweeper round. Great fun if you can keep your drive in the fairway, you will have descent looks at the green. Sets up good for drawer of the golf ball. First time on Mini Verde greens, different from what im used to but they were smooth and were in perfect condition. Greens firmed up throughout the day after being rolled. Some long(ish) par 3's , cool setups. Fairways were descent , some bald spots, overall fun course for descent price
Great Experience
The staff was very friendly and helpful in the clubhouse and on the course. The greens rolled true and were quicker than expected. The course is a bit older, but is holding up well. Overall, we had a great time.

Nice course with new greens
We played on a Friday afternoon with another couple and it felt like we were the only one on the course. Staff was friendly and helpful. The layout of the course is beautiful, with a mixture of playing along tree lines and wide open areas. It could be even more pretty if the greenkeepers would take more care round the greens. It seems like they didn't mow it for a couple of days. Tee boxes and fairways are in good shape. The greens were renewed in the fall, so there is not much grass, yet. The ball was still running well with a good speed. Every green has a big slope from one side to the other, so you never get an easy approach shot or put. Tough to play. Buttom line a nice course and definitely worth the money. But I would recommend to play Leopards Chase instead.

I will pass this information along to our Director of Agronomy and our head greens superintendent and make sure they are aware of the issues you described. It is our goal to provide all of our guests with a fun and memorable golf experience and we will do everything in our power to make improvements wherever possible.

Nice course but pace of play was terrible
Pace of play was terrible with no Marshall on the course. They had a tour bus full of golfers who had no problem stopping to take photographs when they should have been playing the game. The result was stacking everyone behind them.
Thank you for the very nice Four Star review of Lion's Paw. We truly appreciate your patronage and your feedback. I will pass this information along to our golf director and see what can be done to improve the situation. We typically have at least one ranger/marshal on each of the Big Cats courses every day, so this would have been a very unusual situation. We apologize for any inconvenience and we will take whatever steps necessary to address this issue and improve our operation. Thank you again and we hope you will visit us again soon and see our continued progress.
