Greatwood Golf Club

We had a 115pm tee time. On arrival at 1245, there were no carts available. And the 3 groups in front of us had no carts. We finally got a cart that was out of juice at 200pm. We barely finished our round because the no one was monitoring pace of play.

On top of that, the actually grounds and fairways were not taken care of very well. I ve played here several times but this was by far the worst.

We had to wait for a cart just to get started. When we arrived at the first tee there were two groups stacked up waiting. We played 5 holes in 2 hours. Painfully slow. Whoever is scheduling the tee times is failing. The price is good on golfnow, but it’s still not worth it when you can’t finish 9 holes.

No water stations and no cart girl, bar at clubhouse lacking food variety. Fairways were very hard. Lots of water on this course. Greens were ok.

First time playing Greatwood in a month and what jumps out at me is the condition of the greens. Very bumpy. If they can, the greens crew needs to roll them. Fairways are also bumpy but I can live with it.
Very little roll on the fairways. Area courses continue to recover from one of the worst droughts since 2011. I do like the layout…quite interesting and challenging. Especially the finishing two holes. Hole number 10 remains a personal puzzle…getting across in two for a 73 year old is quite the challenge. I almost made it this time.

No marshal, some greens are less than 10 yards wide. Cart died on 14th hole, had to call 3 times to get pro shop to answer, took over 20 minutes to get new cart. 2 other groups had a dead cart. Bunkers left from day before and less than 2 in deep. Pro shop was not open until after first 2 tee times passed and no golf pro around.
Should be no more than $40.

Bathrooms and clubhouse are in dire need of improvement. The greens have been shrunk so small it’s a little ridiculous.
General grounds are not kept at all. Weeds, dirt areas, trash, tree limbs, it looks abandoned in places. I live in the neighborhood and it’s unfortunate and embarrassing.

Greens were good. Fairways very bumpy. Off the fairways was all dirt or mud. Sands traps were hard as rock. Won’t play there again.
