rain

We had a great front nine, then the storm hit us. We were able to get 4 $20 credits from Golfnow on any future hot deal M-T after 12 pm. Thanks for the rain checks. Looking forward to playing Buffalo Creek on a better weather day.

Sorry for the delay, but we were not over booked. The Hot Deal time at 2:36 is always going to be a little crowded. For the same rate you can get off earlier by booking on our website WWW.GREENFIELD.GOLF

Thanks. Tony

Aeration

Always enjoy playing at DragonFly. But it's maintenance time. The back 9 greens had been aerated and I would assume they will be doing the front soon. This information needs to be presented to the consumer before we pay to play. If I would have know , I would pay more to play elsewhere..
Heads up.

some poor greens

I've played this course for many years and this was my first game in 2020 at Whitetail. The greens are the worst I've seen. As you play past the first 4-5 holes they get a lot better. Players must fix ball marks and stop twisting their feet on the greens. Over all the course is OK, but not worth top dollar.

Poor for a resort course

My wife and I had played the Palmer course last year and the conditions were perfect. So, we expected the same on the Saddlebrook course. Well , don't waste your money. 6 greens were really unplayable.
We started on the Back nine as the front nine greens are terrible. Patched, top dressed and bare of grass. For a resort course, it is unacceptable. I glade I only paid $29. Even at that cost,I over paid. Think twice before you play this course.

Bad Greens

We were welcomed with the comment from the Bag Boy" greens 16&17 are closed due to being vandalized".So,we got to play 16 holes for the 18 Hole price. The other 16 greens were average at best.
I've played Rosedale the last 5 years and it is in the worst shape I have seen. It to bad , as it has a great layout. . Make sure it's a good deal before you play this course.

Dear Deketaylor,
Thank you for writing about your recent visit to Rosedale. Unfortunately, we had some major vandalism on two of our greens. We have repaired the areas and the front half of 16 is open and 17 has been repaired with new sod. We will open the green once the new sod is ready for play. We appreciate your patience during this time and hope to see you on the course again soon!
If you would like to discuss the course conditions in more detail, feel free to contact me anytime at the club. We have made great strides in getting the course back in excellent shape and look forward to the future.

Sincerely,
Stuart Cobb

Great greens.....Average fairways........poor tee decks
I was lead to believe this course was above the others, but save your money.If the cost is below $30 it's a deal.
Anything over that , it's over priced.

Why pay for a private course

Great layout. One of the best in the Ottawa area. There is no need to be a member at a high priced , over rated course in the Ottawa area. I've played all 6 private courses and Loch March blows all of them away..No competition.....
My only concern is they need to put sand on the carts to refill the divots. Get the players to maintain the playing conditions. Great practice facilities. Great people working there. 4 hour round in the middle of the day. Great pace........
Anyone who joins the high priced courses needs to play Loch March...You'll change your mind quickly. Save some $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Good for you Loch March. I'll be returning

Cheers

Why pay for a private course

I have been a member at numerous course over the decades and paid a large amount of money to play at a private course. After playing at Mapleview, I now know playing at a private course in Ottawa is a waste of money. Mapleview offers a great layout at a great price. Do not waste your money playing at over priced so called private course in Ottawa ...Save your money and enjoy a day a Mapleview. Great staff that offers a $10 reply ,with cart...Beat that over priced Ottawa courses.............Some courses in Ottawa boost about a 4 hour round of golf. Well, we played in 3.5 hours ,following a group of 4 players...Some course think they offer a great product, well you need to get out and play a Mapleview and see how a golf course gives you a great golf experience...Good for you Mapleview...............
