Enjoyed my first round at the course. Challenging greens made up for subpar tee boxes. Pace of play was bad on 1st nine, but improved dramatically when group ahead of our 3-some let us play through after 6th hole. Clear sailing after that, including at the turn. Pro shop staff was very nice. Rates just dropped for the season to $25 walking for 18, which is very fair.

Very slow play today which is compounded by those making the turn on this 9-hole course. If pace of play isn't an issue for you and you want a course that is very good for beginners, then you will enjoy the layout and course condition. Bring bug spray for holes 2-5.

Steady stream of golfers, including many retirees, play daily. Pace of play remains good because most play the shorter tees, but course is a decent challenge from the tips for lower handicap golfers.

I really enjoy playing Martindale. Good walking course and pace of play is about a 4 hour round. Greens and level tee boxes are superior to other courses in the extended area. Very friendly staff.

Course is in wonderful shape. Throughout round, I saw many people mowing and working on course condition. Also, teed off before 8A and played through one threesome to finish in a little over 2 hours for 18 holes. When I finished, there was certainly quite a few people on the course and mingling around the clubhouse.

Pleasant walk and not too challenging for my struggling golf game. Very nice layout, friendly staff and starter. I was a single and the starter helped pair me up with a couple nice guys. Pace of play was very good as we played in about 3 hours, helped by a slow foursome letting us play through on the 5th hole.

I had not played the course since they made the design changes. I think the changes turned out great. However, the pace of play was horrendous, so I ended up quitting after 9 holes. I would have enjoyed seeing the back 9, but I did not have a few more hours to spend on the course. Also, the price just seems unreasonably high unless you can secure a special rate. The only advantage to the high prices is that finding tee times is possible and a more full reservation list would even further slow play. I think going forward I would look for just weekday options where the course may be even less crowded.

It took nearly 5 hours to play on Saturday afternoon. The Marshall was extremely nice, but I think a heavier hand is needed to force a better pace of play. Such a short course should be played in 4 hours, regardless of time of day. I have been waiting for a Golf Now deal to work with my schedule because I think the regular rates are simply too high for the course, particularly with the pace of play issues. With the discount, it was a good value.
