Not Worth Your Time

To start off they have two entrances to the neighborhood. The one that’s right next to the course is off limits, so you have to drive around the neighborhood to get to the course, adding another 10 minutes.
The staff was very friendly and told us what to look out for.
Course is in poor condition, fairways, teeboxes.
The greens are actually great but they are inconsistent.
Wasn’t worth the $80. There are other courses around the area that are nicer and cheaper.

Needs Work

Went to play on Sunday. We had a 2:30 tee time. Unfortunately my partner forgot socks and we went to the pro shop, they had none. The pro inside told us we had plenty of time to go get some and come back. When we do get back, 4 other groups went ahead of us so we decided to go off the back 9. Tee boxes are in pretty horrific condition, greens are patchy. Was in much better shape last time I played. Do not recommend even for the price.

Terrible Customer Service!

Had a tee time scheduled for 1:24 for 3 of us. The single who had the same time asked to play ahead of us and was granted permission. We tee off and as we are leaving the tee boxes, the employee asked if I was alone and since I was, paired us up with someone as we were driving away….
Cart was in poor condition as brakes really didn’t work. As we were playing the first hole the ranger allowed a twosome to skip ahead of us to the next hole, slowing play. Employees had poor attitude and will likely never play here again.

When you buy a hot deal, you will be playing as a foursome as per Golf Now’s policy. The single golfer had your tee time and was not sent out ahead of you. You were paired on the first hole. As a hot deal customer 100% of your fees go to golf now, and 0 to the course. This is their tee time. You should really leave this negative review for golf now and not the course. We have nothing to do with hot deals. We simply have to send people off at their tee times, and we had other tee times behind you that needed to go off on time. Tony.

One of the best courses around!

Did a hot deal here today for $35. Perfect day to play. Course was in excellent condition. Fairways, bunkers and greens were superb. Staff was very nice and professional. Ended up playing a scramble with my friend and ended up shooting a 69.

Great Value for Money

During season it’s difficult to get a good price for a round of golf but Bent Tree offers a challenging course at a great piece. Greens roll really well. Tee boxes could be better and the cart path needs maintenance but overall worth the visit!

Disappointed

After doing some research, this was supposed to be one of the best courses in the area, but it’s far from it. Fairways were basically rough. Bunkers were horrific. Greens were decent but didn’t make up for the day. Not to mention we got backed up so much we left. Would not recommend.

Solid golf course for the average golfer. The fairways are in ok condition depending on the hole. However the greens roll rather fast compared to other courses of the same price range. The cart path is in absolutely terrible condition. Really needs to be dealt with. They don’t have a range either, just a practice putting green.
