Weds morning round

We had a 2 some booked for 1034. Showed up early and got to the tee box on time. Caught the 4 some in front of us immediately. Asked to play through after 4-5 holes. 2 holes later we catch the next group. The round finished at 6 hrs.

We stopped for a snack at the turn. There is limited options. Self serve hot dogs. NO ALCOHOL. Cold Gatorade. I grabbed a pack of donuts and a small Gatorade and was charged $8!

The 1 person working the staff was rude and seemed troubled by the couple questions I had. Told me to ask golf now for the answers.

The course is in ok shape. It’s challenging. Not as challenging as dealing with the staff and ownership. There is no chance I would pay to play here again.

Meh

Seems like it would be a good track, but management is letting Blackheath and Glacier Club just wither out. No off-course amenities, employees who do not want to be there, and prices for food that is commiserate with much finer courses. Good to pass on this one.

Nice course

No alcohol sold on course. I’m not a big drinker, but I like to have a beer if it’s hot.

BYOB

We were not greeted at the bag drop. So we just dropped off our clubs came back and load them on a random card. We checked in, got a couple of tokens for a large bucket of balls. The golf balls are terrible, they were bald and dirty….
Before going the first tee, Stopped in the clubhouse to buy a couple of, beers. He said they lost their liquor license.
Course layout is beautiful, course conditions were very good. Greens were very difficult as they were undulating and fast..

Great track!

Great bang for your buck. Most of the greens are elevated, some severe so you better have a good approach shot or your going to have a test to get it up and down. Greens are challenging, don’t think there’s many straight puts out there. Everything breaks but they roll great! The greens were in very good shape! Range could be a little better if there were yardage markers to hit to, just a big open area with no targets.

Bad Starter

I payed for a twilight round and the starter told us that the course was closed at 7:30 PM even though the signs on the door said “carts in by 8:40PM”. Told the starter that I paid for twilight and he just shook his head no and said we had to leave. Not going to be playing Glacier any time soon.

Slooooow

Way to slow. They send people off too close together. I would hesitate to play it again because it's more than an hour too much time.
