Starter the Guilty Party

In general you get what you pay, it’s an average Executive Course, not designed for low handicaps. Holes are short, not 1 single trap protecting the greens, hardly any hazards. The course is in ok shape. A good place to practice or get a quick round in. It works for me, not complaining. The only problem with this course is the starter, not sure what’s going on, I’ve played there many times y more often than not. They don’t respect time or foursomes. For example the last round I played, I got there 15 to 20 minutes before my tee time, there was supposed to be 4 players, I was a single, when I got there I was told that one of the guys was a no show and that the other 2 players already head out. This kind of bad decisions by the starter caused a very slow pace of play, you have Twosomes and singles lining up and waiting for a hole or green to clear. Not a single ranger to fix the situation, I joined a couple behind me an it took us 4 hours to play a short par 64

Good time

Fun, cost effective course. Greens not in great shape, but it was $20/round, so you can understand.
No beverage cart while it's 90+ degrees is a tough one, though..

Course upkeep

Since our northern guest have returned home this glade course seem to be forgotten. Weeds were everywhere including greens . Grass was extremely high in the fairways. Something I had never seen

First round since November

the course was a bit wet from heavy rain they had gotten, so greens were softish. Solid practice round to get rust out and for 20$ cart included I have nothing bad to say. some tee boxes were rough and sandy and maybe trim some branches around them like 18 tee. Paired with 3 gentlemen and we had a good time.

Fix the T-boxes

All dirt t-boxes are not t-boxes. By the end of the day you are covered with dirt head to toe. Fairways and greens are decent but do not make up for the dirt. A few months ago they still had grass in those area but no more :(

Great executive course in need of love and tender care.

I see that Colony West Champions course is really improving. Hopefully, soon, Glades Course will receive such a treatment.
The Glades Course is really a fantastic executive course, but conditions are poor. Greens are improving but tees and fairways are a long way from being acceptable.
This course deserves better.
