Didn't Even Get To Play A Round I Paid For

I booked a hot deal on GolfNow for a Monday afternoon round. I brought my 15 year old son with me to caddy for me, which I do quite often. When I arrived 30 minutes early for my tee time, I was told that I had been grouped into a foursome and if I wanted my son to ride with me they would charge me $30 extra to have our own cart. I refuse to pay $30 for a cart that was already included in my greens fees. There was no budging from the staff, but they did say I could go off in a cart by myself with my son as a rider an hour later with no extra charge for him. If you can do it in an hour...why not now?? I've played this course many times and had my son in the cart with me many times for no extra charge. It's a cheap shot in my opinion and definitely left a sour taste in my mouth. I got no refund of my money since I paid for the round through the GolfNow app under a hot deal. If I pay for a round of golf with cart charge, I should have a cart to myself and have whoever I want to ride with me. Wife, son, or nobody at all. It would be more understandable on the weekend if there is a big crowd and a shortage of carts, but even then $30 is a bit steep to charge for a rider. And there was no shortage of carts at 2:45pm on a Monday afternoon. I would be hard pressed to go back there again after this.

Could be a lot better

Course layout is really nice and has potential to be worth the asking price. I paid $75 for a Monday mid-morning round. Too many details that are not being paid attention to for that much money. Greens and tee boxes were the worst ones I’ve seen this year. Some tee boxes were completely dirt and the greens were so marked up with ball marks, there’s no way to get a true roll on them. Sand traps were empty of sand and actually had grass growing in some of them. Saw the cart girl on the first hole and that was it. There are plenty of other courses around that are in much better shape for only $35-$55. I decided to “treat myself” to a “nicer” course and was sadly disappointed I paid double what I usually pay for a course with conditions likened to a public municipal course. Will not be back this year and would only go back if someone else was paying or drastic changes were made to the conditions of the course. This course is worth $40 a round at best in my opinion.

Beautiful course, great amenities, but slow playing.

The course was very well maintained! Beautiful tee boxes, fairways and greens (greens were a little slow). The only reason this wasn’t a 5 star review is because how slow the rate of play was. I was waiting on almost every shot after the 5th hole. Foursome 2 groups ahead were holding everything up and while I saw Marshals riding around all day nothing was done to speed up the foursome. 4.5 hour round of golf on a Tuesday afternoon was a little ridiculous. I would definitely play this course again but just know it’s going to be a 4-5 hour round.

Nice layout

Great course, nice layout. If only people would use their sand in the fairways and fix divots on the greens. A little slow on the front. I was a single wedged in between a few threesomes. Finally played through on the back. Overall, a great course and will go back, but tee times could be a bit more organized for a “slow” Monday.
