If you haven't played this great golf course recently, you are missing out on a terrific layout! Well maintained bent grass fairways and greens provide great lies and smooth, fast putting surfaces. Recent improvements to the sand traps now provide a challenging golf experience. Beautiful views and a super staff truly make your visit unforgettable!
The course was is very good shape (minus people not fixing their ball marks on the greens). The carts girls were great and the service inside was top notch. The good course review completely gets thrown out the window simply because of our experience with the starter (older gentlemen with blondish/grey hair). We had a group of 8 with tee times at 11:50 and 12:10. We previously talked with the club house to ask if the 12:00pm group could go off before us so that our 2 groups were back to back. We were told yes as long as the 12:00 group was ready, which they were. When we get to the tee, we explained this to the starter that we were going to let the 12:00 3 some play in front of us so that our groups were back to back and this is when he lost it on us. The amount of F bombs thrown out by the starter was simply disgusting and fairways of woodside should be ashamed that this guy represents their course. Comments were made such as “This is so F’ing stupid, you guys better not ever b*** about the pace of play, It makes no F’ing sense to me, etc”. The way he talked to our group was something no one in our group has EVER experienced on a golf course. Just be warned about this staff member. While our group shoot it off after a few holes, it definitely left a sour taste in our mouths. I will be calling the course today to share our experience and I’m hoping it gets passed along to the right level of management to deal with accordingly. This review would have been 5 stars if not for our first tee interaction with the starter.
$70 is outrageous for a course like this. "Upgraded" carts that have to be over a decade old. Neglected tee boxes. 4 ball washers on the whole course, half were dry and one was broken. "Improved" sand traps, except half looked like a lunar landing zone. Rough was in need of weed spraying. The greens were peppered with ball marks. I'll happily pay less for more somewhere else.
Good challenging course at a reasonable price. In great shape. Only issues are that it needs a senior set of tees on certain holes. White is to far and red is too short. Can also be a little slow at times. Overall it gets a 4!
Cart girl and bartenders were nice. Course was poorly maintained and the shop manager split our group up for no reason at all. Bunkers were the worst I’ve seen. Nowhere near worth the $70 price point.
