Terrible accommodations

Tee time at 2:56pm. Group of 4. No ranger to let us hit off after waiting five minutes for him at the first tee box. We teed off due to people starting to lineup. We get to the second hole or 3rd hole and the ranger drives up and say we tees off at the wrong hole. We should have started on the back 9 so now when we finish the front 9 we must play the front 9 again. Due to league or whatever was going on. Not our fault he wasn’t there to do his job. Terrible pace of play and organization from that specific ranger. Will never return. No wonder this is the only course with so many open tee times. On to the next!

Needs to communicate better to golfers scheduling tee times

There was an outing with six foursomes of ladies in front of us playing best ball. We were told to tee off on the back nine. It took our twosome 2 1/2 hours to play that nine holes. When we got around to the first tee to play our second nine the tee was backed up with two foursomes. So, we went back and played the back nine again. At the seventeenth hole the ranger came to us and asked why we were there. I told him. He said well, I have a golf league playing this hole and the eighteenth. He had nothing to say but hurry up!! We got to the eighteenth tee and there were two foursomes waiting to tee off. Thank goodness they let us play through. This was a bad experience. We paid $22.00 each and that is what it was worth I guess.

I was a first off the tee single at 6am, so while my pace was obviously great, can’t accurately comment on pace in general
