Way too slow to enjoy

We booked Angel Park through Golf Now to give us some down time during our Vegas trip. With a 1PM reservation, we got there early in case we could get an early start. We were given the go ahead at about 12:45, and when we got to the first tee there was a 4-cart backup. That's how our round started, and that's how it continued.

We didn't see a course marshal until after the turn. We he drove by, there was just a smile and wave but the pace never increased. We had to wait on every single hole. In front of us, the threesome and pair were all playing together as well, which was also allowed by the course. They would take their time getting off the green, often taking practice putts after the pin was replaced. They also walked through the traps to get to their carts. Not once were they called out by the course marshal, likely because he simply wasn't there.

The course itself would have been great to play if we got to do the whole thing. As it was, we were playing the 15th in the dark and mid-40's. There's no way this course should be scheduling tee times for 18 after 1:00 during the winter months unless they get a new marshal and figure out how to stagger their start times better.

The rental clubs were OK. certainly not anything special but I did appreciate that they put a "rock club" in the bag and explained what that was. Cats were in really good shape, and all of the staff were friendly.

I won't be going back to Angel Park on upcoming Vegas trips unless I see some reviews that they've fixed their pace issues. Not worth paying for 18 when you can't finish.

Worth the Drive

White Horse is a ways out there for many of us on the Peninsula, but it was worth the hour-long drive to play this course. Really friendly staff from the time we checked in until the 19th hole.

It was extremely foggy when we started playing but once that burned off, it opened up to a really pretty course.

The course was really well-maintained, but they are seeding the fairways so sometimes that was almost like being in a shallow sand trap. That, and the golfers behind us playing into us twice were the only drawbacks of the day. I would definitely play this course again!

Relaxing Course

We got the super saver special from Golf Now for $17 with a cart. Great price and I'd expect to pay at least twice that on any other day. The course is a relaxed pace. Not too many golfers seem to be in a hurry, but still play fast enough to not be annoying. The staff is relaxed and friendly, except the bartender in the club house acted all uptight when I asked for ice. And I guess I was also the only one that he told not to take beer onto the course because there sure was a lot of it.

The course is being well maintained. A couple of the greens seemed really wet even though there hasn't been much rain lately. Even the drier greens are fairly slow as some others have pointed out. The carts are in great shape too.

I would definitely play Rolling Hills again, but I'll be sure to bring my own ice next time.
