Fun Course

This was my first time playing Candlewood C.C. I enjoyed the course layout and conditions. The course challenges the player to hit an accurate tee shot as most holes are narrow with O.B. on either side on several holes. The course layout rewarded good shots and made for difficult scrambling opportunities when poor shots were made. Most of the par 4's were about the same distance and the par 5's created scoring opportunities. The long par 3's were the most difficult to tackle! However, the rate of play was slow as the round took almost 5 hours to complete. It was particularly slow on the back nine.

Candlewood

Good course to play. Not very long however looks of blind type shots. Good to play with someone familiar with the course. Can be walked easily and most of the holes are fairly flat. Greens are very nice and roll very well. Was informed by a member that summer months course is very dry and firm.

Great course —- Super slow foursome in front of us!

A four hot round turned into a 5 hour round! PAINFUL!!!
Slow moving older gent! But worse! A 60 year old beginner who should not have been on full length course until he gets lessons! Excruciatingly Painful! Fortunately, o was with my girlfriend! So, we just tried to enjoy the day!
Similar problems the last round we played here. We were stuck behind another group of super slow older gents!
But, it’s a really challenging layout with lots of trees and mild elevation changes!

Beautiful course, friendly staff

Try to play this course as often as I can. A beautiful course with mature trees. A little slow today, probably because it was a Friday and everyone wanting to get before Super Bowl Sunday.

Nice and Compact

First time at Candlewood, Staff was friendly and helpful. Greens were in great shape. Water features come into play on several holes and course knowledge is important..
Greens can be tricky, you need to be below the flagstick on several holes to minimize the speed.
Overall it was an enjoyable day!

Great Course!

Course is always in great condition. Today, however, #17 there was some course construction happening. It did not deter from a great day.

Pro shop staff always very friendly and welcoming. Course maintenance staff always friendly as well.

One of the best places to play in the southland. Good pace today, played as a single, very little waiting.
