Coral Canyon Golf Course

Unbelievably awful customer service from the robot working the pro shop.
Confusion about our teetime at 10am or 1pm. No one could find proof and the robot in the shop wouldn't let us pay at 10am for the 1pm price after we drove from Vegas to play.
Never going back.

A generally good day at Coral Canyon: great weather, challenging and interesting course layout, first four holes moved along well -- but then the parade came to a near halt. Took 2 1/2 hours to complete the front nine. I knew that we couldn't keep the sun from setting, and if our group got in line again on the back nine that we would never finish before the sun set. So --- we went back to the first hole and played the front nine again. That was the only way to complete 18 holes that day.
They need to start "twilight" earlier to allow players to finish brfore sundown and/or figure out how to speed up the slow-pokes at the front of the parade.
Another gripe for Coral Canyon: the sand traps look nice from a distance, but if you have to play a shot out of one you'll find that the sand is about 1/4 th inch deep. I was really suprised (and disappointed) when my S-wedge bounceed of the hard -pan and sent my ball flying across the green. (The second time I used the rake to soften up the sand in a small area before I replaced the ball (yes, I know that's cheating, but if the course can't groom the traps then I need to); the resultant shot worked much better.
Nice course - needs more and better maintenance.

The reduced afternoon rate is all we would have wanted to pay for this course. 90% of the staff were very nice and informative.

This must be the time of year for "Over-Seed", this is the 3rd course that we have played that did this, this means we had to use the cart path and walk a lot.
This course is very hilly and long.
The views are incredible though.
The pace was very slow, as in 6+ stinking hours!!! We called the pro shop and asked them to send out one of the marshals to ask the guys in front of us to speed up, they said okay (There was 1 open hole in front of the foursome playing in front of us, we had to wait at every tee box as they lost and searched for their balls constantly).. But the marshals NEVER showed up. It took an hour just to play the first 2 holes. The next issue is that a group near us had a boom box in their cart and was blasting music. We again called for the marshal and asked them to get these guys to turn off their music, it didn't happen. Then when we were finished, I went into the pro shop and said they shouldn't allow stereos or music at all on this course. The guy behind the desk didn't seem to care about my opinion, he just shrugged me off. Those golfers must have been friends of his.
To the manager of this course, I hope you are reading this!!!: Your employees need to understand the players' concerns and abide by golf etiquette! A round of golf should never take 6 hours even in slow play, and we should not ever hear someone else's music blasting all around the entire course.
I heard that this was a nice course, so I flew in from Sacramento California to play here and it was one of my worst experiences ever on a golf course. If you look at my Profile, I play quite a bit of golf and always give good and honest reviews.
My review of your course is negative and I do not like posting negative reviews. For this reason, I am posting NO, I do not recommend this course.
You may reply to me.

Tee boxes, various parts of the fairways and the greens (had been aerated a couple of weeks prior) were in poor condition. Had played this course years before and it was in good shape and when we saw the deal on the green fees recently we decided to play it because normally the fees are high. Layout is decent but the course has really gone downhill,

It's been a decade since I last played at Coral Canyon, and for years I always considered it one of my favorite southern Utah courses. Not any longer. It is showing it's age, and it's not the course I remembered it to be. To give it credit, the fairways were nicely manicured, and the greens were slightly above average. Although a lot of ball marks .However, the cart paths were in need of repair, landscaping is now overgrown, with the paths covered with weeds, dirt, and rocks. Recent floods have exacerbated the problem, but it appears little effort has been taken to fix this.The club house bathrooms were dirty, and toilets were coming off of the mounting brackets.
If this was a municipal course charging reasonable green fee's, I wouldn't be so critical. But when premium
fee's which are pushing one hundred bucks, one would expect premium value and enjoyment for that buck. It just didn't deliver that for me today.

This course is not being maintained compared to the last time I played it. This is especially true around the greens, tee boxes & cart paths. Just does not have that inviting taken care of feeling especially for its desirable setting. Guess the course may still be recovering from previous weather issues. The pace of play was horrible! 6 1/2 hours. Maybe they should think of on course marshals to address this. Wait staff in the bar & restaurant need to take customer service classes.

Average course. Extremely slow. 5 1/2 hours. Greens not in the best of shape... not really worth the cost.

Our first time in this area. Beautiful course layout. Played the white tees because of the single that joined us, and would recommend using the blue tees for a more typical course yardage. Green to tee is LONG so riding is a necessity for all but the dedicated hikers. greens are quite fast and most are multi-tiered so approach shot placement is important.

This use to be a great course in every way. Now, the layout is still great but the course conditions are really lacking. Definitely not worth the money and I got a deal.

A very nice golf course in a beautiful setting. The course was in very good condition, a bit challenging but very playable for mid-handicappers.

This is a gorgeous course. Nice layout with great greens.
Arrived to find the range closed for mowing at 12:30 pm. That was disappointing.
Enjoyed our playing partners but found the pace of play brutally slow. Was over 5 hours - way too long.

The golf course was is very good condition for the time of year. The staff was friendly, the cart girl was a little sour, but overall very good. But the pace of play was extremely slow with no help from the staff.

staff very friendly and the course was in excellent condition. if you are in St George it is well worth playing this course

I had been interested in playing this course for a couple of years and finally got the chance to play it yesterday. While it's not the worst course in the world, there are many better options in the area. Why do I feel this way?

1. The pace of play was awful. Our round, which started at 2:30, took five hours. I heard others quitting after nine holes because they were sick of waiting.

2. The conditions are average. The fairways and tees were in pretty good shape but the greens and bunkers were in poor condition. The greens were full of ball marks and the bunkers rarely seemed to have been raked. I understand these issues aren't the fault of the grounds crew but it's worth noting.

3. They are charging premium prices for a decent, though not excellent, product. During high season, they want $110 for 18 holes during the week. In my book, that's a pretty penny for a round of golf.

I could go on and on about little nitpicky details, but at the risk of sounding even more cattish than I already do, I'll refrain. My sense is they have some budget and/or staffing issues going on here. Hopefully if those get cleared up, things will improve.

My playing partner and I did enjoy the layout and I found the course fun and challenging. It's not a bad course by any stretch, it's just a little rough around the edges. We came to the conclusion that it feels more like a city course, lacking attention to details, rather than an upscale resort course. And don't confuse this with golf snobbery, I love a good muni track as much as anyone, I just don't like to pay resort prices for them.

Bottom line, if you can play here for about a third of what they're charging I think you'll come away satisfied, if you pay full rack rate, you'll be left wanting.

Played here during twilight which was $65. Don't think it would be worth the full cost. This is a good course; however, it has been a week since I played it and I can't remember most of the holes. The good of it is that nothing bad is remembered; however, it means that the layout was nothing special-just solid.
I will say that it has a putting green, great staff, good restaurant and all of the things off the course were very good.
The course lacked variety. All the par 5s had a forced carry on the second shot over a trench or creek. One or two holes like this is good, but all four became redundant. The par 3s were good and everything from a sand wedge to a long iron were used. I don't remember any par fours as standouts. There is one that is driveable, but it plays into the prevailing wind. Regardless, it is a good layout, but nothing special about it-nothing bad either.
I found the course conditions to be fine-especially for March. There weren't any dirt patches in the fairways or anything like that.
If you are in St. George, twilight is worth it. I just wouldn't have this as the first priority to play.

Top notch resort course. Excellent views & in great condition tee to green. Very Friendly staff...especially Gene!

But, the cart path & other infrastructure really needs some work; felt like driving through a construction site on many holes.

I gave it 4-stars because I'm hopeful they will invest in the necessary upgrades.
