DONT PLAY HERE

EOGC has never been a great course. But it is local and I can usually get a tee time. The pace of play is slow because there is no starter or rangers People wander on and foursome will go out followed by a single, and so on . Results are as expected, The fairways in the lower areas are mowed despite the ground being water logged, resulting in tire tracks form the mowers ruining the fairways. But that is the least of the problems here today. The greens are totally destroyed There are nothing but dirt and sand. And not one but all. There were never watered during this dry season. But the fairways were over watered, mushrooms all over. The greens are so bad you could actually rake them. The tee boxes were like batters boxes in baseball. This course should be closed immediately, and repairs begun now to save it for next season. The groundskeeper should be fired.

Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.

Getting better

I think this is the third management team that has been here in the last ten years. Seem to be making the right moves. Course has improved. Have to watch out for people bypassing the starter and sneaking out on to the back half of the course

The pace

Cute little course. Staff was friendly and helpful. There was nothing overly challenging about the course, no hidden or blond shots. Water comes into play in about five holes. But the pace was unbelievable. Finished my round in 2:40. I’m sure this is not the norm but was great for me. I would play here again

Great course

This was really a quite nice course. Layout was great. The course itself was in great shape. Pace of play was slow, but not because of over crowding, the foursome in front of us were very old and slow moving. Would play it again

Slow

The course is very nice. Some of the low lying areas were damaged by water. But fir the most part the course was in good shape. However the pace of play was horrible. I walked off at hole 13 because it was got a ball wait ten minutes and then go I couldn’t find a cart girl to get a drink and they closed the snack bar at Four pm. Overall would never go back, too many nicer courses in the area

New owners and they changed the course layout a bit. The greens were not good. Looks like they were airated recently. Because if Covid every course I played was in great condition because they weren’t played on. These greens looked like the end of the year instead of the beginning

Nice course

I had a 910 tee time and got there at 845 to warm up and putt. Because there was a twosome at 850 the starter rushed me out to play with them. The course was in great shape. Greens ran true. We had a foursome in front that had to very good golfers and two very slow seniors who were playing from the blue tees when they should have been playing the forward tees. Because of them the pace was slow and we waited at ever hole. Ask the ranger to speed them up but to no avail. Still a good day on a nice course. Oh Golf Now gives you the price of this course without the cart do beware

Never again

We finished our morning round early and headed here for our afternoon tee time. In the parking lot/bag drop area were two groups for 5-6 foursomes. Each going out on different courses. They were drinking to excess to say the least prior to going out. While on the course they were loud and rude. They threw beer cans and insults at other golfers. The speed of play was at a crawl. The ranger were told repeatedly. He did nothing but say they paid their money to play. After nine holes the rangers were no where to be found. At one point at the 14th hole their were 6 groups on the hole or waiting to play. After the end of this 5 Hr and 20 minute round, the course staff was gone. The pro stop closed and all the rangers and starter were gone.. Possibly the worse golf experience I have ever had.

The front nine good back nine so so

The front nine played well enough with great views of the valley. The greens were heavy marked up from spikes. The back nine was difficult. If I did not have two locals playing with me I would have never known where to hit half of my shots. There is a terrible short par four that is uphill on the back nine. It looked like in was forced into the course and should have been a par three. Again the greens were heavily marked up by spikes. The course is okay but not what I expected from the hype it recieved prior to my playing it.
