Patricia Island Golf Club

Huge letdown. For the price of the round, the online website advertisement, and reviews I was expecting much more.

First, I will say the staff were friendly and accommodating and that's why this review gets 2 stars, instead of zero. However, if you are taking a boat to the course I would suggest they add a sign or two on the dock to identify where to park. Having an employee waiting in the trees with the cart instead of on the dock makes it impossible to find.

Now, let's dive into the course conditions. They were that of a muni course you could pay $20 (if that) to ride on a weekend morning.

Right off the bat, you can get a feel for what you're going to expect by the practice areas. The driving range hitting area is basically just a mowed down pasture. You're hitting off a patch of grass that is probably worse off than your backyard. Then stroll on over the putting green where you will find a green that went through aeration a little over a month before we played, but bounces your ball around like it was done last week. Not much better when you get on the course either, good luck trying to line a putt up.

Then to the course. The drainage on the course doesn't exist, you think for what they charge for guests and members they would invest in some drainage systems. It barely rained two days before our round and it was a swamp on most holes. Don't wear a new pair of golf shoes, or you'll be ruining those after this round. Tee boxes were in decent shape, just similar to that of the driving range with general Bermuda. Bunkers were raked and didn't have standing water in them, which was surprising. The rough consisted of high weeds and what looked to be an attempt at US Open rough conditions, but could be because they can't mow due to zero drainage. I will say the layout of the course is fun/challenging. I thought the course played tough, and required some thoughtful shots.

I'm okay with playing public courses that are honest with their pricing. There is no way that Patricia Island should be anywhere near the cost that they are charging. Hopefully they can re-evaluate their pricing, but that's not going to happen. Maybe by reading this review I will save you some change in your pocket to spend that elsewhere. I would highly recommend paying extra to go to Shangri-La if you care anything about playing conditions.

Unusually cool day with occasional sunshine. Fairways were damp from recent rains with a little water standing. Condition will improve with an expected break in the rain.
Greens were in great shape and well groomed. Booking with Golf Now got us on for half the regular price.
If someone is looking for a home course and lives in the Grove, OK area I would recommend you take a membership here. There are many additional amenities for members like a full service restaurant, tennis courts, and swimming pool. This is a true family country club.

Very wet with standing water throughout fairways and bunkers. Poor fairway conditions. Most greens in good shape. Very slow pace of play on front 9 with 6 groups stacked up waiting on 4-some that were slow playing greens like they were playing in the Masters tournament. Back 9 with better pace following a different group after taking a long break for lunch.

Love this course. Always in Great shape. Get there early to putt, chip and use the driving range to get loosened up because you want all your shots to be as good as this course looks and plays.

Great course, good value. Greens were in great shape.

1st I would say the staff was great and secondus hard to complain when I got to play it on golf now for $14 But outside of that it was just a typical overplayed and under cared for Municipal course. Drove 3 hours to play it and Probably would not do that again

Learn from my mistake and don’t let the website or other reviews fool you. When I played the course it was just, simply put, poor. The fairways hold any kind of moisture like you wouldn’t believe. The rough isn’t mowed, the fairways could barely pass for Bermuda, and the greens are the most inconsistent that I have seen. Even the tee boxes were in bad shape. Not to mention the carts are in terrible shape. We had 4 carts in our group and 2 of them wouldn’t start half the time. We booked a hot deal on GolfNow for $52 and that was about twice what you should pay for this course. As it’s normally $60, spend the extra money and play the course across the cove, you won’t regret that.

Great layout through residence area. Homes are on the course but safely away from errant shots. Members have access to many amemities; tennis, pool, exclusive restaurant. Greens are in great shape, the fairways have a little moisture but this is after more than a year of above average rainfall.
Staff here is excellent and very friendly.
I should sell my house and move here.

Couldn’t ask for a better day in November. Will be back to play this course. Was like had the course to ourself’s. Challenging but very fun to play. Use every club in your bag, will make you think and some of the largest greens played on. Love the layout.

This is a very challenging/ beautiful scenery golf course if you get the chance to play it go play it there are some hills and dips the course is in good shape right now and worth playing I live 4 and a half hours from grove Oklahoma but it's worth the drive

Got a great deal for 2 at Patricia Island and it was well worth it. Great layout for any skill level.

This is the best Year Round Golf Course. Definitely worth every penny weather you get a deal off golf now or paid normal rates. Well worth it. hit free range balls before you play. practice on the putting green and ractive chipping on separate green. the course is in great shape year round, tee boxes fairways and especially the greens. Awesome in the winter, and more amazing in summer.

All around great time and the course is in great shape.If you haven't tried their food, you are missing out.

Great day and course was pristine. Greens were rolling fast.

The course was in nice condition. Tee boxes and fairways were in very good condition. The rough was nice and thick. Around the greens was very well taken care of. The greens rolled true and moderately fast. No beverage cart. Nice grill in club house. A little out of the way to get to but worth the trip.

Exceptional course that requires accurate club selection. Excellent conditions and great layout. Definitely recommend this course and well worth the drive.

They ran a tournament which conflicted with our round. They jumped us around twice, but we ended up in the tournament player’s way, and finally quit after 16 holes. Poor planning by the management. It was an expensive round of golf...would have liked to finish the round.
