course a bit ragged, but good price

The greens were spotty but fairways and most tee-boxes in good shape. At present they've added a par 3 practice hole as they rotate holes for renovation. I had a 9 am tee time to avoid the typically windy conditions in the afternoon on Maui, but that didn't work out. It was very windy -- like 3 clubs on 5 or holes directly into the wind, Overall, it is a decent course and good value with GolfNow as compared to the Wailea courses which charge 3 or 4 times as much and are not 3 or 4 times better.

great course, good value

Desert Falls was recommended to me by another golfer and lived up to his praise. Pretty tough track, fair bit of water that comes into serious play on 3 or 4 holes. Rough was punishing, but wide fairways. Excellent variety of holes. More slope than most PS courses. Greens a tad slow was my only criticism, but fairways and greens in excellent condition.

good course, great value

For $43 using Golf Now Tacquiz Creek Legend course is pretty hard to beat. Course was in excellent shape. Greens a bit slow. Two of us got our round in in under 4 hours.

Shotgun start group put out just ahead of us

We should have had time to get the full 18 in with a 12:15 start time. But they made us wait for a shotgun start group. We could have started on #6 and bypassed them but they wouldn’t allow. So we had to wait on every hole. Sometimes 2 groups on the tee!!! So, by 4:35 we were on #16 when I had to pack it in with darkness approaching. Too bad because it’s a good course in great condition.

Greens need work

Greens were slow, bumpy and patchy. They really needed a marshal out there to speed up play. The group ahead of us were painfully slow. 2 hour front nine and then we caught up to them and had a 2 hour 40 minute back nine. But it's a quarter the price of the Wailea courses if you get a GolfNow deal like I did.

demanding course in the wind

I like Kahili. Tough course because it always seems to be a two or three club wind when I play it in the afternoon (the price is better then). The greens were not as good as they've been in the past, but everything else was fine.

Best deal on Maui

Yes it is, if you can get a GolfNow hot deal, otherwise it seems to me to be overpriced. The course is in fine shape from tee to green. Played as a twosome in a little over 3 hours.

good course, but there are better around

Marriott Desert Springs is a good golf course, but some features of its layout and condition made it less than an excellent one and less than great value for the money. The majority of the holes have elevated greens, severely rolling fairways and require quite a number of blind shots. The greens had recently been top dressed and were slow and somewhat inconsistent. All this is compensated for by the beauty of the course.

Superb course

A real treat. Excellent course in all respects. Nice variety of holes. From the golds, 6200 yards, not super tough, but a good challenge. Greens rolling true and just fast enough. Fairways immaculate.

great value

Given the recent flooding, the course was in good condition. The three or four holes that were affected turned out not to be an issue. I could drive over the affected areas, but even if you couldn't, it really wasn't much of a problem. The rest of the course was in really good condition. Greens and tee boxes on all holes, and most all of the fairways were just fine. The views were great. Definitely would play again. Don't get a sandwich from the restaurant.

great course

The Dunes is the best value in the Kamloops area. The course was in excellent condition from tee-boxes to greens. For $45 plus cart fees it's hard to beat. Good variety of holes with a what you see what you get sort of layout. The dunes (mounds off the fairway) penalize for errant shots, but the fairways are generally fairly wide. Some really touch holes, like the 560 yard par 5 7th on the front and a couple of 400+ par fours, but others that are relatively short but reward good shot making. Greens were excellent shape, fast but not scary.

enjoyable course

The course was in great shape and the pace of play was excellent (4 hours for our foursome). The only drawback is that the course winds through downside subdivisions, and you have to drive down and cross roads numerous times. At $62, I thought it a little over-priced.

stunning golf course

Thanks to Golf Now I got on this beautiful course for $60 as a single joining a threesome. I wouldn't have played it otherwise, but I'm lucky I did. Nothing but praise for course conditions. 4 hours 15 minute round. Every hole unique and a challenge.

can't beat the price

Clearly, Soboba Springs is undergoing some renovations. Some great holes, but quite a few that feel like complete temporaries -- i.e., not only the greens, but the make up of the holes. That said, most of the greens and fairways were in good shape, and the real greens, especially were fast and true. For nineteen bucks (x 2 with my partner) thanks to GolfNow, who's complaining.

fabulous golf course

Early tee-time worked well. Pace of play good (4 hours). Course in superb shape. Greens fast, fairways perfect. Front nine upped my confidence, which I needed for the much more challenging back nine. I really liked this golf course.

great course, but greens recently punched

Beautiful layout (played the Valley course). Pace of play a bit of an issue. Only problem was with the condition of the greens. They had been recently punched and were shaggy and slow. And no-one mentioned this and nowhere was it mentioned. Probably would have played elsewhere had I known.
