Terrible Club House Check In Worker

I will never be back. I am a computer development manager and after checking in with a nice guy who wore long sleeve compression arm sleeves and I ended up going back into the clubhouse to simply ask for their wifi information so I can check into a flight before our tee time.

This inquiry was made to a different guy who immediately answered back with "I don't know", "what do you want me to do" and pure attitude like I bugging him or something. Shrugging his shoulders and acting all tough. I literally did not say a word after this simply request. Again, all I asked for the wifi information and that was it.

Then this individual turns to another employee who just happened to walk by and asked him if he knew it and then proceeded you tell this colleague "hurry because I was getting mad and going crazy". Again, I literally did not say a word. Never experienced such nonsense in my life. Must be mad because he has to swipe credit cards from older ladies all day but don't get mad at paying customers.

Other than this rediculously ignorant individual the course and everyone else was pleasant. That said, I will never be back to this track in addition to my entire software development team and all of our clients. Hope Shadow Hills checks this individual and his attitude before someone checks it for him. Many would not bite their tongue like I did that day with his nonsense. Lucky for him.

As the saying goes, get good service tell 5 people, get bad and tell the world. I never write reviews but hope many see this especially melanated folx. Disgraceful.

Going to be great.

The course reopened just 4 days ago. It was made clear by the starter that the course was cart path only... no exceptions. Ok fine I get it, fairways reseeded and greens just punched and sanded. But if YOU are a senior in your seventies who might bad knees or hips, you don't want to hear about it when you are about to head out to the first hole. That information should have been abundantly while booking my tee time.
Having said all that, the course is beautiful, and come December, I'm sure you'll be able to drive on the fairways and putt on rolled and cut greens. Short of that, if walking hills is a pain for you, pass on this track til mid December.

Another Saturday at Shadow Hills

This is a friendly yet challenging course. Conditions were great.
We always try to play here when we visit the desert.
