Dead greens

The course having just gone through recent renovations to all the greens looked amazing and played great. But to my surprise as a local i showed up today and found the greens were purposely sprayed to kill the grass to do new greens. Adding insult, as a local i paid full price in the morning to get a quick round in before the afternoon. I was never asked or warned of the conditions of the greens nor if i even wanted to play such conditions. I had to find the greens were dead on lakeside and hard as a rock as my ball bounced off into the rough. The greens were rolling like glass, you could not stop a ball on your approach shot. Had i been warned i would not have played the course in the shape it was in. Even local members were fuming on the greens. This caused pace of play to slow to a crawl as everyone was having trouble putting and chipping. As a local, my opinion is nothing to anyone that matters but i wont be back for a long time over this one.

Fair course

This golf course s very challenging but not so bad where you loose a ball on every hole. The fairways are generous off the tee and fairways are fast. The greens are firm and fast. Great overall course.

Disappointed

Course overall was decent however Lakes Course had some goofy holes, course maps/layout would have helped a lot. Flags were difficult to pick up for yardages due to their color (black or maroon).

Just expected better!

Best course in the state

We come to peninsula every year with a group of 12 guys and will continue to come every year. All the employees at peninsula always do a wonderful job taking care of us. The course is always in great shape. They have an amazing restaurant with great food and drinks. If you’re looking for a place to have a golf trip this is it.
