Nice but slow

Wonderful course and well maintained. Pace of play slow! Ranger needs to enforce rules about pace of play.

Great round at Windsor Parke

I hosted some former Army buddies for a round at Windsor Parke. The course was in great shape, especially considering the amount of rain we had received that week. Greens were in great shape, we got off early, and had a fun round. The club house staff as well as the starter added to a very positive experience. Will definitely go back.

Slow, slow, slow

Once again a course whose management has no concern for pace of play. Waited on foursome in front of us starting on hole # 6. Waited the rest of the round on every shot. No groups in front of the foursome, long since behind. They obviously have no clue regarding golf etiquette. I spoke with pro shop, who did nothing. Didn't even send ranger. So if you have all day to play and like waiting on every shot, this course is for you

First Time Playing

Nice course...Slow play

Course was in pretty good shape... only issue was greens that were undergoing maintenance so they were not up to par. Really nice fairways though and some nice hole designs. Had a good round except for slow play. Sometimes a 10 minute wait to tee off at each hole. There was one group that was slowing everybody down and didn't see any marshals around. Course is pretty nice but no enforcement of slow play and should have been on a Saturday. Took about 5 hrs for our threesome.

Great Course

I have played here for over a year and found quite an improvement. The greens were just aerated and showed some insect damage here and the. Otherwise this course keeps their rough and fairways cut at a more reasonable length and all the bunkers were trim. The tee boxes show wear. Bunkers need better sand. Overall, a great course to play.

Disappointing greens

The course greens were sanded at the time of play. Otherwise, the course was decent and challenging. I would definitely play this course again.

Interesting layout

An interesting Arthur Hills layout. Conditions were good but not great due primarily to the long drought we have had here. A number of tees could use leveling but the greens were very nice. Course staff were all pleasant. We started behind 3, 20 something guys who were not very good players (we are a 69 & 70 year old couple) and waited on almost every shot. In fact, they decided on several occasions to have a gabfest on the tee for 3-4 minutes before hitting the first shot. They needed some coaching in golf etiquette and/or a prod from a ranger----which we never saw. Other than the pace of lay we enjoyed the day!

Course condition is not great

I've played this course a lot and this was the worst shape I've seen it in. Possibly from the lack of rain but I'll play elsewhere in the meantime.

conditions of course not good

Lacking grass on tees and putting service on some holes had sand on them to cover up bare spots. Many bunkers did not have sand in them .

A bit of casual water on course

There was a bit of casual water on the course. I live in the area and there's been no recent rain so was confused by this. Overall, it's a great course and good value.
