No etiquette from the trailer trash players on the course, and no marshalls. Good luck not getting hit in the head by a loser teeing off too soon

Fairways too close together. No Marshalls. Loser players with no respect. I only played there as it was the only place open on December 2. They didn't even have any food.

Theres something about mary

Most boring poorly maintained course Ive ever played and Ive played alot . I called the manager mary about our horrible experience and left her 4 voice mails and have not recieved a call back in 2 months of trying . Clearly she doesn't care hence noone else there cares and the poor conditions and experience . As others have said the rough is super tall and you lose your balls on decent shots . Signs saying beer cart girl was out but didn't see her once in our 6 hour round . No one out there to in crease the pace . We hit the range up first and most of the balls had no dimples and 2 was a half ball . Like how do they not replace or at least go through them and toss the beaten up ones ? Until recently for years there was a massive car alignment damaging pot hot in the middle of the parking lot my freinds tell me . There pond is not maintained at all . Horrible smell coming from it . Stay away from this course if your looking for a good day and round . Many others around for cheaper and managers that care and maintain .

Golfing @ Bushwood

I have played here before and it’s a very nice course with good amenities. This time however was pretty disappointing. We arrived well in advance and took
advantage of practicing on the putting and chipping green as we patiently waited for our tee off time. I watched 28 people tee off between 415-4:50 then another 10 walked past us as we waited for our tee time of 4:57 pm. When I approached the starter along with the group of people I heard someone yell out “don’t you know it’s ladies night?” I don’t understand why Bushwood decided to offer us a tee time when it’s league night and don’t appreciate the poor pace of play. As a result we forfeited many of our holes and lost our ability to play a decent game.

Moving forward it would be nice to have some accountability when booking players tee times and allow for a decent pace of play. To add to this the fee was not cheaper as a result of the late start and was not worth the price of admission. I will consider playing somewhere else that will keep this in mind so it’s not as congested.

Left my range finder in the cart. No one turned it in. During coviid all carts are supposed to be sanitized after use. Either the carts aren’t sanitized or staff didnt turn it in. My mistake for forgetting it their sin for not turning it in. Never go back

AWFUL

We played on Sunday Sept 16, 2018. We had played here once before , even after we were told it was a "hay-field". Our first initial round back in June was quite good. We played fathers day and they had a special so my wife and I went. The course was in great shape and certainly wasn't a "hay-field". So we decided to play there again yesterday. It was AWFUL. It was a "hay-field" The rough hadn't been cut for a while, literally losing balls, and you almost couldn't tell the fairway from the rough at times. Also the tee boxes were in dismal shape and it looked like the pins hadn't been moved for a week. At a cost of $171 for two players I expected a lot more. I complained at the Pro shop to a young man who didn't seem to really care. The play was very slow, even with a Marshall, a little more than 5 hours to play. The washrooms on the course were overfilled and my wife couldn't use the bathroom until we came back to the clubhouse. We wont be playing there again. What a shame , with some real TLC it would be a great course. We are local so we have plenty to choose from.

It was the first time pkaying Bushwood and my overall impression of the course was average. I lost a lot of balls in the high rough and sone fairways appeared to be like roughs in most other courses. The greens were in good condition.

Some improvements needy

Overall the course is ok the value is great. The course needs some maintenance such as the fairways need some irrigation and t- boxes need to be flattened and even out flat and the greens need to be repaired from scuffs that’s all.

Golfed there Saturday June 2nd , The fairway is so long you cannot find your ball even in the fairway, many guests complaining, you should not have to hunt for your ball when in the fairway. Very expensive course to play when you lose balls so easy. I would stay away. We will not go back again,
