Confusing

Not many signs pointing towards the tee boxes, as well as not many illustrations showing where the green is from the tee box. Overall great course for the price and great staff

Unfriendly staff

Marshall pushed too much to play with other players, even though i confirmed to desk staff that we can play just two of us.
I couldnt see the difference between two separated two player and four player together.
Eventhough he was angry, he need to think about what is the kindness.

Pop;ar Creek is a good course

Poplar Creek is a good course that is not too difficult.
The course was in better shape especially the greens.
The pace of play was much better than normal.
The biggest drawback is the lack of signs with yardage from the green.

Yelling to me without reasons

I played this course a few times and my experiences were great until yesterday. First, there are some high school players in front of us played very slow and one of the player complaint about that and they didn't do anything. Off course we can't finish as usual. One of the employees came to take my cart away before the sun was setting down. I just played here days ago until 8:20 PM without any problems. I asked why. He said I was told that I must return the cart back before 730. I said I did not hear it. Then he yelled at me very loud and very upset. I was so confused about his attitude. "why you yell at your customer" he said: "You lie and I hate liar!" What did I lie about?
I write this review only want all of their employees to handle this kind of situation with a sense of humor and not too sensitive. Any customer ever with a few questions should not be treated like this. Period!

good course but slow play

Poplar Creek is a good course. It has an interesting layout that is challenging but not too difficult.
One drawback is the pace of play is slow.
Also there are very few yardage markers and very few benches to sit.

Great walking course!

This is a great course to walk: flat wide open and pleasant. While it is prone to wind (like all Bay Area courses), it it not crippling. As much as it looks like a fairly flat and straightforward course, it has its share of challenges. The greens can be tricky! I really enjoy coming here.

Very poor conditions

This courses greens and area around the greens were in horrible conditions. Blotchy crab grass around the greens. Whoever pulls the holes doesn’t make sure it’s packed back down. You literally watch puts make right or left turns as they approach the hole.

Nice course for beginners and intermediate

This course is fairly easy-- flat and mostly wide open. It is great for higher handicap to enjoy a round of golf. But the pace could get very slow on weekends.

good course a little windy

Poplar Creek is a good course with a good layout.
The course is in good condition but the pace of play around noon is very slow. Other times pace of play is much better.
The new restaurant is good but service is not good.
