Staff :(

Really unfriendly and treated my group of 4 as an inconvenience rather than paying customers. Travel around the state during the summer playing different golf courses and not many experiences like this in dealing with the staff. Felt mostly uncomfortable after initial interaction. Ran into Tom the GM to ask if I could get some advice for my days round and was told “yeah don’t be slow” without stopping to even acknowledge our presence. Really poor. Course was average. Decent layout but many options in the area. Won’t be back

course is fine

course is generally in good shape. they recently cut the normally tall grass between holes and it seems to have improved pace of play

biggest complaint is that most of the carts are in bad shape.

Excellent course - but pace of play sucks!

5+ hour rounds are all too common on this course - the group behind us was 2-3 holes behind the group in front of them, and no rangers going around to speed up their play.

Course itself, however, was excellent. Wide fairways, greens were in great shape - other than the pace of play, had a great experience here.

To overbooked

The the course was in very good shape. The pace of play was terrible pushing out people right on top of each other. Most holes there are three groups on the hole, while the Ranger sat in his cart and remarked about how slow it was. The round was over 6 hours

Great Time

The course was in great shape. The green fee was reasonable and the track was challenging. My friends and I had a great time.

Bone dry

Not worth it. Extremely slow round and dried out course. Staff and management are in “la la” land.

Beautiful day and course

Blackheath was in fine shape. The fairways were very lush and the greens fast and true. A fair but challenging course in pristine condition.
