9 hole course

Narrow at times but moderately ample fairway room off the tee. Greens were tiny. Good point on greens they ran true and fast. I would play if in the area but would not go out of the way to play a nine hole course unless that is what I was looking for.

Fun Course!!

Don't let it being a 9 hole course fool you. This has all the challenge a better player could want, but allows a beginner to enjoy their round as well. Definitely need to be on your iron game, greens are small and quick!!! For this time of year, course was in great shape.

Refuse to provide a rain check - Do not book if there is a chance of rain

While I was playing it started to rain. It was windy as well. The course refused to provide a rain check even though it was not possible to continue with round. The reason given was that I have booked the round through GolfNow.

I would recommend not to book with Point Venture Golf Course if there is any chance of rain.

OK for the price

A frost delay caused a slow start which isn't that bad, but apparently there was a tournament in front of us. This REALLY slowed things down.

There also were a lot of people that didn't understand course etiquette and pace of play. Group in front of us would drop one person off and then take off to play their ball on the other side of the fairway... Which sounds great but they would then wait for the lady to WALK all the way to where the cart now was to turn take off to the next shot.

Another group would park their cart on the approach to the green as they putted, and another had blaring music which was really distracting on the hole with close tee boxes to each other.

There also was a big pile of actual animal crap that had to have been there for while in the tee box. On our second round through it was still there.

That was all the negatives but in general the course was pretty good. This isn't going to win any awards but it was still a fun outing and with no water or sand you still need to navigate some tight fairways and deceptivly fast greens.

Price is also decent especially with the special that was running
