Laurel View Country Club used to be such a fun and great course to play. I live in town and it was always packed on weekends and well kept. However, things are going terribly down hill. Do not waste your money or time by playing at Laurel View.

I scheduled a tee time through golfnow.com and purchased a Hot Deal for $18/person with cart. I paid in full at the time of purchasing the hot deal. The next day we arrived and checked in the with starter at the desk. He informed us that they just implemented a new policy with Hot Deals and the price is now $23/person. Even though I purchased the advertised price, we needed to give even more money.

The course itself is awful. The fairways look like roughs on most courses. The roughs are really high grass. Not sure how many balls we lost just because of the roughs. The 'sand' traps are just rock filled dirt. There are no water containers for the players to drink from or use to fill up their water bottles. The ball washers are either completely dry or completely missing.

I only gave 5 stars to the pace of play because we were the only ones on the course for the most part. Everything else was a 1 star.

I hope Laurel View comes around, but until it does, don't waste your money or your time. It is not fun at all anymore.
