Use for practice

Still a reasonable rate of 30 bucks use to practice your game nothing is cut just pick up ball once on green due to poor of unhealed aerating and not mowed very slow greens Course was the best in the area 10 years ago with its course layout and the green keeper when it opened was awesome now it is even par if not less then riverside except it is cheaper here Same carts when they opened but they got us through 18

Windy weather
Used cart

unfriendly staff, overpriced, horrible upkeep

arrived one hour prior to tee time to allow time for range balls and warm up. The "manager" informed myself and my playing partner that the small bucket of range balls, which were so beat up and weathered that there were barely evident dimples left, would cost us $13.17 per bucket. She claimed the outrageously inflated price was due to people steeling her balls and buckets. That was about 20 balls. Reluctantly we stayed to play and paid for two buckets. The natural "turf" range offered no decent spot to hit from. mostly divots and weeds. On to the course. Every cart they own has half the drivers seat ripped off with no effort to repair that issue. The steering left us fearing for our lives making our way around the course up and down the hill sides with eroding pathways and treacherous falls to near certain death. The course itself was just as sad as the rest of the experience. Most of the greens were plagued with disease and spotty at best. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!!

Not Pebble Beach, But...

This is not an upscale private club or posh resort. The club house is not particularly fancy, the snack bar wasn't open and the pro shop is bare bones,

But none of that matters to me. I care about one thing -- the golf course. Is it fun? Is it interesting? Is it challenging but fair?

I answer yes to each question.

I like hilly courses with lots of elevated tees and elevated greens. Pebble Brook has plenty of both. It also has lots of blind tee shots which is fine, but I wish they had a bell or a mirror or a tower so you could be sure the group ahead has cleared the landing area without someone driving up to the top of the hill to check.

Be sure to bring your range finder because yardage markers are very hit and miss.

I should note that the course conditions were better than I expected for the first week of February just 2 weeks after a 9 inch snowfall that stayed on the ground for 10 days with sub-freezing temps that whole time. Yes, the greens are rough, but they are playable if you move your ball away from the biggest dirt patches. (I had 6 one putts and no three putts).

The seat cushions on the carts are torn and the scorecard holder was missing on mine. But the cart had plenty of oomph and the brakes worked fine.

I played behind two inexperienced golfers but still finished in 4:15 on a Saturday.

So much potential

First off, the lady at the counter was exceptionally nice. The course was packed & I think we waited on maybe 3 tee boxes.

The layout of the course is amazing. I know when the trees bloom this place looks amazing.

Now to the course itself. You could have put a bunch of goats on the fairways & it would have been maintained better by them than it currently is. Clover growing all over the place, you have no choice but to play your ball up almost every single shot. Middle of the fairway is equivalent to hitting the rough essentially. Weeds everywhere, no consistency in the length of grass. Grass growing in the sand bunkers.

The greens were an absolute joke, as you’ll see in pictures. Hole 18 was the best green I played & had 0 complaints about.

Hopefully someone who cares about golf can come in & buy the course and change this place because it has a lot of potential to be one of the best courses in the area just based on the layout of the course.. It was my first time playing & I was fine with paying $50 for a round on a Sunday, and after hole 1 after seeing the conditions I’m not sure if I would have paid $20 for this course, even on a weekend.

Cheap fun course

Only downsides to PB are the greens and the carts. The carts are all missing pieces of seat, but drive mostly good. The greens are really rough right now. It is winter golf at this point but the upkeep on the greens is poor. Rarely cut and very patchy. I love playing this course but the greens make it difficult.

rough in spots

pebble brook hasn't changed much in three or four years. Beautiful setting and layout,rough conditions. Greens average to bad on some holes. Traps sandless and dormant;take a drop.Fairways ok.Cart seats need replacing. If someone could infuse about 750K in this place it would be as good as it was 15 years ago. As it is, better than the driving range.

Bad course !

The layout was very nice and scenery. However, the course conditions are very bad. The greens are horrible with damage spots everywhere and they have not been mowed for a while. The golf carts are bad with damaged seats and without windshield. I would not play this course again.

Cool layout.

Fun layout. Some big elevation changes. Fairways are in great shape. Currently, a few of the greens have bad spots. And a few other greens weren’t mowed as short and were extremely slow. You don’t want to walk this course, there are some long rides between holes.

Still beautiful from afar, but needs work. Not a common course you might be use to. Some greens have gotten better some worse.

What happened

It has been a while since I’ve played this course and it will definitely be a while before I go back. This course used to be a fun and beautiful place to play. The condition of the course was horrible. There was no sand in the sand traps. Most of the fairways were indistinguishable from the rough. The greens appeared not to have been taken care of all season. NOT worth it even after getting a good price ($30 fo 18). There are many other courses in the area.

Greens and Trash

Many of the greens are in poor condition making it difficult to putt accurately. There are many aluminum cans and some trash found all throughout the course. Suggest placing trash receptacles at each tee box and reminding golfers not to litter.
