Played On 08/15/2020Good course, terrible prices & rules
I have been playing MV for years. New owner bought a couple years ago. Has been bringing course back to life after previous let course go a bit. I live in this neighborhood but a few things are making a lot of people drive 5-15 miles away just to not play this course. Pro shop employee has no patience and is rude (He has always been on edge with previous owner to). Next is the cart fee. This is another reason people are not going there. Say I buy a $45 game of golf for 18 holes. If anyone that wants to go with me that doesn’t even play golf and just wants to ride (my wife, kid, dad, grandpa, friend) still has to pay to ride on that cart I just paid for. They are not playing they are simply riding for fun and enjoying the day. The owner has made a cart fee $20-25 just to sit there and watch. Blames it on insurance. While any other course in this area does not charge for a rider just riding. This is why we don’t waste our money at this course anymore. If my 80 year old grandpa wanted to ride and the owner said $20 to him he would laugh in her face. He can’t even swing a club anymore. Very poor customer service. When she dries up all the players and no one wants to play there anymore over a rider fee she will learn. Maybe she needs to call any course in dfw that doesn’t screw people and get their opinion because the people that actually live in MV don’t even want to play there. It’s embarrassing and disgusting. Another reasoning is any course out here in dfw has hot deals on golf now with cart included. If you buy a $35 hot deal from this place the cart isn’t included so get ready to spend another $15-20 on a cart. Another reason people are done going here. That’s the point of a hot deal is to get a good deal on the whole package including everything not paying $35 to walk 18 holes that’s a terrible deal. The new owner really needs to call other courses around here and get opinions because they’re losing business like this. If they want to fit in great if not one day she’ll understand and have to sell out and I’ll buy it from them.
