Everything about the course was decent except for the fact that they let a fivesome go out first and it truly slowed the hole course down. It took almost 5 hours to play! A round here should be 4 hours max. Terrible waiting 15-20 minutes between shots sometimes. Need to speed pace of play up for sure.

Pace of play was 20-25 minutes a hole. For a round that should take 3-4 hours tops, it ended up being almost SIX sloooowww hours! Really kills your rhythm and the. you cool down and loose tour focus/swing/shot. Not fun at all. Staff didn’t/wouldn’t get out there and manage the issue after multiple groups called. At times there were 4 groups on one hole!!! Crazy. Needs to change immediately.

The greens crew was very slow and the greens were not all cut even at 11am. The bunkers weren’t all raked, nor the approaches cut. I went to the fourth hole and they were still cutting the green of the 4th about to go to hole 5 at 8:45 in the morning. So a few of the greens rolled fast then the rest were slow and wet. Very detrimental to the score. Otherwise the course was in great shape just speed up the greens crew so the greens are cut for players go out in the morning.

This course is below average and not worth more than $20/round tops. What makes it worse is the guy Tony at the clubhouse desk who is always there. He is always so rude and just utterly unprofessional as can be. He needs to be friendlier and more respectable to the patrons paying his check and playing on the below par course where he works.

Staff was very late to get the course open. I had a 7:08 tee time and they didn't even show up to open the pro shop until after 7:30. Then they had to get the carts out so all this delayed the round 30/40 minutes and added a lot of stress before the round even began. Honestly it really made the first couple holes very unenjoyable. Not professional at all. Not the first time this has happened at Northwoods either. Poor course mgt.
