Ranger and pace of play

My friend and I breezed through the front nine in an 1hr 15 min. Then we caught up to 2 foursomes on the back nine who were mingling with the ranger, THAT stopped us dead in our tracks. On 12 tee box we noticed there was no groups in front of the 2 foursomes, and yet the ranger did nothing to speed up the pace of play... (3hrs 15 min to complete the back nine...)

Great Course Trouble With Greens

Dunham Hills is one of my favourite places to play golf. The greens at Dunham are usually extremely quick and roll really well. The adage "do not hit it past the pin" applies to Dunham 100%. Unfortunately it seems the greens at Dunham have been severely impacted whether by the weather or some other factor I am not sure but they simply are not in good shape and it appeared that it may be some time before they are back to Dunham's norm which is terrific.

Double Bogie

Played here last year, much better experience. Back nine greens are totally fried, unplayable. Golf course poorly marked, have to seek out overgrown sprinkler heads with hard to read yardage tags. First three or four holes are shooting gallery, bring a helmet. Grill room dysfunctional, offered greasy hot dogs and day old sandwiches. Was told they don't offer food if there is a wedding that day? Priority here is pushing overpriced drinks and beers. Way out of line with surrounding courses. This course is not worth $49.00 by any stretch of the imagination.

Downhill Slide

Very disappointing round of golf. Course poorly marked, bring your laser. They removed 150 yard posts and the plaques in fairways haven't been painted in years. Pro shop very cluttered and disorganized. They no longer offer any type of food service except hot dogs and bland sandwiches.
Not the Dunham Hills it was just a few years ago. We will be going elsewhere.

Course in beautiful condition! Greens were quick & smooth. 4 hour round even with a big holiday turn out. Outside grill with brats, dogs & burgers was an extra bonus. Lastly, the price from Golf is was fantastic!

Friendly game

The course was a great condition for all the rain. The new white tee box made a few of the par 4 ‘s fun for shorter drivers. Will be back from.

Disappointment

Service here is rude, unconcerned, leaving you with the feeling you are intruding on them. Children running the Pro Shop, No starters or rangers to be found. Grill room brought me a drink with insects in it, they couldn't have cared less.
Such a shame just when things were getting turned around they make management changes. I stayed away for years because of bad service and this time I am done. Only possible bright spot was the golf course itself. Always in great shape. But there are a lot of other great courses in area with tenfold the service and friendlier staff.

Course took 6 hours to golf 18 with a t time. Let people cut in front st the turn and share a bag. Employees at the course did nothing to speed up pace and nothing when groups cut the turn. Will not golf here again until they learn how to treat seasoned golfers.

Really enjoyed this course. It was a beautiful day. We enjoyed the hills and the greens. We got a little frustrated about a foursome that wouldn't let the 2 of us play through for the whole 9 holes.

A lot of fallen leaves

There are a lot of fallen leaves on the course, so very difficult to find the ball, even at the fairway. It was fun to play at Very tough course and steep slope on the green

No Staff in November?

Have been trying to buy a gift certificate but no one in Pro Shop since November? The woman I spoke to was clueless about golf. Why would they lay off Pro Shop personnell prior to Christmas? Online store there one day, gone the next. Get someone in there that knows what they’re doing!

Great course, great layout
, good condition and friendly staff in pro shop .
Would recommend a capable, organized starter; starter should just do starting.
A capable ranger is direly needed. During play there was music blaring, 2 domes, 3 domes and foursomes with pace of play so slow. We were there to play golf the others were there to lie really spend the day, and party. Ranger needs to be there to intercede and manage. The course was really dangerous with people hitting into us and people playing from fairway to fairway. Bad situation which needs to be managed
