Fun course to play

I played as a single by myself on a slower day. I was able to play on under 4 hours while not being rushed one bit.

Course was challenging & I played from the white tees. Some of the holes with water are particularly challenging. Hitting out of .most of the rough was not overly difficult.

Pro shop staff person was super nice & helpful.

I would definitely like to play here again.

Nice, challenging course by the Airport

Course is nice and has lots of opportunities to make you think about ball placement. Lots of marsh and water to lose you golf balls in. Thanks Becky!

Fun to pretend you are golfing with the greats!

Staff were most friendly and helpful. Food and beverages were good -we did happy hour and had appetizers.

Course was fun to play. We tried to do the yardage that the pros use. Since it was late in season the greens had been aerated.

I would love to come back again to play a round with pristine green conditions.

Thanks to all the staff for making our experience a very fun and memorable outing!.

Trapper's Turn is a "Must Play"

I played early in the morning on a cool fall day and had never been to Trapper's Turn before.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. I almost got a hole in one and the greens were some of the best I have played on all year.

I would definitely golf here again.

Course Good but Some Staff Could be Nicer

It was my first time at the course and we played on a Saturday. It was busy, but we were playing at a good rate and not wasting time in any manner.

Since it was our first time, we did have some problems with lost balls, but played ready golf and were very conscious of the time.

As we made the turn, the ranger told us that the group ahead had been too slow and since he told them to "pick up the pace:", then so should we. We took his message to heart, but then there was a twosome behind our foursome that must have expected to play a round on a busy Saturday afternoon in under 4 hours and they were not patient one bit. I thought I heard them chewing out the ranger. The ranger ended up timing our 10th or 11th hole and it ruined my appreciation of the day and the golf course. It was not a good first impression.

I play an average of about 2-3 rounds per week and have played an many courses that are new to me this year and this was an unfortunate experience for all involved.

I know there are pressures to finish up in a timely manner on a golf course, but people don't have to get so pushy, crabby and unfriendly. It is SUPPOSED to be fun.

I liked the course a lot. I found it very challenging but I was playing pretty well and other than that incident, the course was very nice and the rest of the staff were fun and helpful. Thank you to all the staff in the drink carts, the pro shop and the bar. You guys were all super.

Nice Course, Nice People, Nice Price

I got tee time around 8 am on a Friday and was a single. They put me with another person who was walking (I had a cart).

We both played a round of 18 in less than 3 hours, which is great for a quick round of golf on a Friday morning.

Course was in very good shape. Greens were nice and the people at Pleasant View are very nice.

Since this is such a nice course with friendly staff and it is close by for me, I will be back often.

Course is OK but a bit below average in condition and in difficulty

Course and facilities need rejuvenation. Don't pay a lot to play here. Staff are friendly enough, but course is not overly challenging.
