Tidewater Golf Club
Played On 10/04/2019Slower than cold syrup
We played first tee time and were told to play slow as they doubled teed until 2.5 hours later. So we were told to take at least 2:15 to play the front 9. We teed off at 730 and got to the turn "too fast" and had to wait until 945 as promised... fine if you like being told to play slow. We went down to the 10th at 945 and there were TWO groups about to tee off. So we didn't really go until 10. To add to this, it was the slowest golfing I've seen yet. Unpoliced, it was pathetic. Never saw a ranger once. We finished at 1230, waited on EVERY SHOT.
We were to tee off for the second round at 1:30. We asked the started to move us to 2pm so we could let some space form. We were the last group to go out so they warned us we would have to play quick as they'd be waiting on us to close. They happily agreed to let us go at 2 which was nice. They said it would be much quicker in the afternoon. It was WORSE. We were done at about 7:10. Waited on every single box and approach. Never ever saw a ranger/marshal.
Sadly, it is a great course, one that we would never play again.
We done tons of trips and played rounds all over the place, never saw anything this bad.
Our home course is Bethpage, and we decided we could have walked the Black twice faster.
Really terrible way to wreck a course by squeezing dollars out of it.
FWIW, it was a weekday and there was no outing or anything like that, just a course that didn't value time, nor any sense of rhythm to a round of golf on a would be great track. I dont think I'd play this place for $50 at this pace let alone a premium price.

Seriously, charging this much money to hit a golf ball in 18 cow pastures just doesn't make any sense.
Here's an idea, plant some trees and think about leveling out the fairways. No idea why you'd have a course with uneven lies all over the place, no trees whatsoever, and you can't even take carts on it. I'm a +1 and yet I couldn't break 102 on this course. That proves the place is garbage.
You’re a Moron and are not a +1.
Please do all of us a favor and stop playing golf.
102. You’re a joke.l and your comments are ridiculous
Your score means literally nothing in determining the quality of a course. Frankly, with all the pictures available online, if you want to Old Macdonald expecting flat fairways, trees, and mid sized greens, you need to look at pictures. All of that is obvious to anyone going there. Old Macdonald is easily 8 out of 10, probably 9 out of 10, and one of the 20 or 25 best golf courses built in the last 40 years.
