Oak Valley Golf Course & Resort
Played On 05/19/2020First and last time playing here.
The staff is great. Everyone was very friendly. The course is in horrible shape though. Maybe it will get better with time. $35 for 18 seems excessive for playing here.
Columbia Bridges Golf Club
Played On 09/15/2015One of my favorite courses
For some reason I love this place. I have no idea why…Its tough and my score is usually terrible but I keep coming back for more. This place requires to you hit several different shots and seems to be a place where power is not always a good thing. Hole 1 is a good opener. 2 through 5 is affectionately known as the "Gauntlet" to me and my buddy. If you can get through 2-5 in good shape then the course gets easier. The course is usually in fairly good shape. The fairways are decent and the greens a large and well maintained. Its usually not busy and pace of play is rarely a problem. The only complaints I have is the sand in the bunkers is heavy playground sand except for the bunker on 16 and several bunkers have no sand in them. The only other complaint is hole #17. Yeah its a pretty view but is a goofy layout from 16 17 & 18. Still, I love playing there.
The only thing missing from here is a range!
Triple Lakes Golf Club
Played On 09/11/2015Meh….
Ive played Triple Lakes twice this year after about a two year break from this place. Two years ago we played as a twosome stuck behind 4 foursome's, which wasn't a big deal to us we used our free time to take a few extra putts or chips. We knew we were going to be behind them prior to even teeing off and we expected a slow day. No big deal, we were just happy to be outside enjoying the day. The Marshall however had other plans for us and tried to force us to play through ALL the groups in front of us. We tried to explain to him that we knew the situation and had no desire to rush through all the groups in front of us. He drove off and the came back a couple holes later and cursed us out for not "following his instruction". We told the golf shop at the end of the round about his behavior and that we wouldn't be back…..the guy said "ok".
A few weeks ago a buddy and I decided to give it a shot again and see if things have changed. Well, we were pleasantly surprised. The course is in good shape (except for hole 15). The fairways are nice and the greens, while small and sloping in every direction, are in really nice condition. The staff was great……until yesterday. I called to make a tee time for the afternoon and made it for us to play 18 holes. When we get there we find the same guy from two years ago in the shop sitting behind the counter watching movies on an iPad. We walk in and he doesn't get up, just looks up and says "yeah". We tell him we have a tee time for the afternoon and he tells us "you aint playing the back nine today" uhhh what? Says they are punching the greens and the back nine is closed. Well ok can we play the front twice? Nope….High school team coming in to play in an hour. Now I completely understand you need to do maintenance and I have no issue with the High School team playing BUT why couldnt you have told me this when I made the tee time? I did just talk to the guy an hour prior to make the tee time!! So we left and went to another course not too far from there and played anyway.
The last two times we played there Bill was working in the clubhouse. Bill is a super nice guy and extremely helpful….no issues with him. If he's not there….good luck. Which is a shame…..the course is close to me and in good shape….its somewhere that I would play a lot if it were not for the people running the place when Bill isn't there.
Hi, we are very sorry for the inconvenience you experienced at the course. Our goal is to keep the pace of play running smoothly and to never have it too backed up. As far as the raincheck goes, sounds like you prepaid for a Hot Deal on GolfNow. When this is the case, no money is paid to the pro-shop so there is no money that is owed back from the course. You may have booked other course times through GolfNow and that is why you were able to obtain a raincheck. If you call GolfNow, they would be happy to rectify the situation. We hope this clears any confusion up and we hope you give us another try in the future.
Hi, thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recover the fairways and greens. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game, and we will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing Oak Valley Golf Course & Resort. We hope to see you again soon.
