This resurrected course is getting better. The fairways have improved immensely and the lakes are filling in. Fun executive course. Will be even better when the new clubhouse is completed.

We have played this course several times and unfortunately this last experience ended badly. A threesome and a foursome decided to combine and played behind our threesome. The young men in the group could easily drive the greens on most of the holes so it was disconcerting to have them teeing off behind us. On the ninth hole, our group was on the green and a drive came zooming past, barely missing a player. The individual did yell four, but when you are getting ready to putt you usually aren't looking for a drive to whiz by your head. When the incident was reported to the pro shop, we were informed the group behind us was actually some employees which doesn't speak well for Shalimar.

The web-site markets the course at a level far exceeding reality. The fairways are narrow, the numerous bunkers have no sand and are rock hard and the rough is dirt. There was a lot of standing water on the course notably where the irrigation system wouldn't normally seem to be in place. The greens were probably the best part of the course as they were in great shape. Overall the course is extremely challenging but not in a fun way. The range balls scattered across the number one and 18 fairways were very distracting so don't play with yellow balls! I typically gauge a course by how I am treated in the the pro shop and the unremarkable staffing pretty much summed up the experience on the course.

From start to finish, this course and staff under delivered. As first time golfers on this course we were truly disappointed the staff acted somewhere between bored and annoyed with our questions.. Although experienced golfers, our twosome was unfamiliar with the cart GPS system and did not appreciate feeling stupid because we didn't know how to activate all the features. There was no starter on the first hole and no course marshal. The drink girl and young lady selling hot dogs seemed to be the only source for directions or questions. The course is okay, but nothing special. There were some interesting holes and the weather was great so that was a plus. If you do play this course, be sure and use a discount site because full price isn't worth it.

Shalimar is tucked away in an older neighborhood. The price was appropriate for the course and the staff was terrific! I would play it again particularly as a warm up for a week of golf in the area.

Fun course to warm up if you haven't played recently. City course, well maintained. Walking is the only way to go. Your GPS might try to take you to the 18 hole course.

While on vacation we found the Foothills - enjoyable course with public rates for a private club experience. Fun day! Keep your eyes open and you will see roadrunners and maybe a javelina or two.
