Course Conditions

I have played this course every year for several years. I have witnessed a steady decline in the condition of the course. Sand traps have been ignored. Weeds have become rampant. Bushes have grown to heights of 14 feet! Trees long dead remain.

It is obvious that ownership has made a conscious decision not to re-invest in the maintenance of the course. From.a business perspective, there is a huge difference between minimizing expenses - a good thing - and investing so as to attract new and steady business.

This could be one of the very best 9 hole course in the area, but without attending to it, it will continue to decline!

The course needs upkeep. New sand is desperately needed in the traps. The overall pleasantness of the course has declined because they refuse to put even a little money into it.

Course Upkeep

The upkeep of the course has deteriorated seriously in the past three years. Bushes that are supposed to be three to four feet tall now are as high as 14 feet. Look along the west side of the 8th hole to see what I am talking about. I understand that money is difficult right now; however, maintaining aesthetics is basic to maintaining an attraction to playing the course. Additionally, the neglect of the course now has become a topic among Rob Roy residents. Previously, the trimming of the bushes, for example, along the 8th hole took 45 minutes of labor. The lost of prestige measured in dollars now far exceeds the money that should have been spent. In addition to this, it is an insult to your neighbors. There is now actually a 15 foot tree growing in the midst of the bushes!
