Too slow

The course is fine and in good condition, but the pace of play is just too slow. The staff is friendly, but the clubhouse closes at 5pm. That is way too early for a Saturday.

Awesome...considering the time of year.

I really like MO-East. The staff is friendly and helpful. The pace of play is excellent, just under a 4-hour round on a Sunday! I have two gripes: 1) The greens have not yet recovered from the aeration (I know it is early, but they were almost unplayable); 2) The bunkers were mostly in good condition, however, very few had even one rake.

Poor condition

The tees and greens are in awful condition. The bunkers have no sand, but plenty of casual water. This used to be a fine course.

Nice Course, but pace of play too slow.

The course conditions are good, except for the bunkers. There are very few rakes and no evidence that they had been raked in weeks. The pace of play on our front nine (Ridge), was acceptable at around 2 hours and 20 minutes, When we made the turn onto The Links, there were 3 groups in front of us, waiting on the tee. We waited for over 20 min, before we were able to tee off on #19.

Tees and greens are unplayable

Most of the tees a just piles of sand, should be closed off. All of the greens were just unsuitable. The bunkers have not been maintained. This is the worst condition I've ever seen at DB.

Too slow

I'd give it a higher rating if the pace of place wasn't so abysmal. Otherwise, it's a nice course, with a nice staff.

Too slow, and not enough carts

Arrived 40 mins early, no carts available until tee time. Teed off 20 mins late. 3hr front 9. Quit after an additional 1.5 hours on hole 14. No effort to deal with the slow play.

Late and slow

Teed off 30 minutes late and played in 6 hours. No drinking water in the many jugs. One green (11) was unplayable. Several fairways were just dirt with a few clumps of grass.

At a snail's pace

Considering all the rain we've had this season, this course was in very good condition. Despite the signs declaring a 4.5 hour pace of play, and a raft of marshalls on the course, we played in just under 6 hours!!! That's 20 minutes a hole. We were in position the entire time. Ouch!!!

Nice track, surly staff

Loved the course. Fairways, greens and bunkers were in excellent condition. Some tee boxes were a little rough, but that's what the tee's for. Checked in early and was verbally abused by the proshop for showing up early. The place was empty, and we played in under four.

We showed up early with no expectations to tee off any earlier than our reserved slot. I appreciate the courtesy you showed to allow us to go out early, however, you should have looked upon it as an opportunity, rather than an annoyance. By sending us out early, everyone benefited. Our benefit was that we got to play earlier, and faster. Your benefit was that we paid for a tee time, that was going to go unused. This also allowed you to fill the time we vacated, with another twosome, or singles. In other words, we gave you the opportunity to sell the same tee time twice. Your welcome. First one's free.

Nobody meant to verbally abuse you. I was just explaining that you were over an hour early for your tee time. You booked as a 2 some and you were paired with 2 other singles. That means a 2 some had to follow a group of 6 and 3 foursomes.

Aeration

The greens, and some fairways were aerated. The hot weather and monsoon rains have wrecked havoc on the course. Hopefully, it will be back in shape soon.

Hi "redcardrick" Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We apologize about the aeration and unexpected weather on this specific day. Please come back and visit us again on a more desirable day.

Horrible Staff

The pace of play was slow. Our front 9 took 3hrs. We quit after 14 holes. No one on staff was willing to do anything about the pace. The response was, "I just work here!"

Conditions need to improve.

The tee boxes are chewed up, and should be closed. Some of the fairways are burned out. It looks like poor drainage, combined with excessive heat? The greens are very grainy, slow. Regardless of the conditions, the staff are so nice, it is hard to be unhappy with the experience.

Great Staff

We played the day after they got deluged with rain, so the course was not in great condition. However, it is a neat layout, and fun to play. The primary reason I am rating this course as "excellent" is beacause of the staff. They are dedicated to seeing that their customers are well taken care of. Thanks a lot, and we will be back again soon.

Needs work

It's early in the season, but I was disappointed with the condition of the greens, bunkers, and some tee boxes. Pace of play needs to be addressed.
