The tee boxes and fairways are in rough shape. Some of the tee areas were set in areas which were not flat, as well as being quite bare. We have had a hot and dry summer, so some of the issues are weather related, but I have played 6 other courses in the are within the last few weeks and this course why by far the worst condition. Hitting in between the tees and greens was like hitting off of mats on concrete at the driving range. The greens were in good shape, but golfers at this course have done a terrible job at repairing pitch marks, and the course does not make up for it. There are also 12-16 dead trees that need to be removed from along the fairways.

The pace of play was terrible. There were four large groups in front of my group. two of the groups had folks riding along with the golfers. Some of the golfers were kids, which is great for the game, but the groups were holding play up. These groups could have played something like Texas scramble to help keep up pace of play, while allowing the players to hit all of their shots. We asked if we could start on #10, so that we could play at pace, but were told no. We were teeing off before 9am, so there was maybe one group on the back by then, and when we got finished after lunch, there were not even groups waiting to tee off #1. 2 of those slow groups also only played 9 holes, so they could have had them tee off on 10, and everyone would have moved better.

The price here was great, but the course and pace/service were lacking.

Played Range End GC two days in a row. Course is in great shape. The course setup changed from one day to the next, and these changes made the course a different challenge each day. The greens and tee boxes are in great condition. The course is fun, yet challenging. It is also fair when you happen to hit an errant shot. The course is a tremendous value for what you get for the price. The beer made in site and restaurant are great also. Worth the trip for anyone from the east shore, and this course should be one of your top options if you live on the west shore.
