NO Practice Range!!!!

In previous years we've always went to Sandpiper to warm up before our round at Club Ren...but, were told that we could no longer do that because they couldn't monitor the range. That leaves such a nice course as Club Ren with NO PRACTICE FACILITY!!!! I don't like starting off COLD. Need to make better arrangements with Sandpiper.

LayDGolf4,

Hello thank you for the 4-star review. As of 2016, we no longer are including the Sandpiper range as a complimentary addition to your Club Renaissance tee time. You can still purchase range balls at Sandpiper for $7, though. We hope you can come back soon and play Club Renaissance.

Best,
Club Renaissance Management

Terrible Greens!

Booked for a reduced rate on GolfNow and so glad I didn't pay any more. Course layout is great, but greens were in such terrible shape you couldn't putt on them. Ball bounced all over and so much top dressing on every single green. There was one hole under repair.....but, every green needed repair!

Good time except for all of the gnats buzzing around your face!

Overall we had a good time. Nice layout. it was a beautiful day around 75 and sunny, but all of the gnats were driving everyone in the group crazy, not sure there can be much to do to correct that problem. I think it was #13 needs a little attention on the cart path....thought we were going to sink into the swamp...it was very difficult to get to the tee box.

Very Impressive Course

Overall impression was a very good course. Some of the greens are difficult to hit and hold. Great layout and need some strategic ball placements. Course knowledge is helpful. Played with another twosome who played here before and gave us good tips. Will definitely play again. Friendly staff. Great practice areas. Greens were FAST! Played Sanctuary to Estuary.

Not Impressed

Greens were not in good shape. Patchy and bumpy. Greens were fast, but ball did not roll well due to the conditions of the greens. Other courses in area were in much better condition. Sand traps were not so friendly. Sand was like quick sand and left many lies like a fried egg. Course layout was nice and practice facilities were good. Wouldn't put it on my list of courses that I would like to revisit.
