Willowbend Golf Club

Beautiful golf course. Fun layout and nice fairways and greens. Friendly staff. Well maintained facility. A must play if in the area. Nice price on tee times as well.

Fairways are in really rough shape after all the heat and lack of rain. Bunkers are okay. Greens and around the greens are great. Tee boxes are good. Course played super slow today but it was hot and windy.

This course is in very poor shape. Even giving the minimum one star is generous for this course. The course is not even being mowed properly. The only thing they take care of on this course are the greens. The fairways are a disaster and kept at a lovely three plus inches long, the rough is patchy, and the bunkers are filled with gravel courser than a gravel road. Cart paths are falling apart. Tee boxes have received zero maintenance for years. I’m not even sure if they’re still spraying for weeds or not as some tee boxes are only weeds, unmowed weeds that is. Plus, the carts are clapped out. It cost over $75 to play this course and it’s disappointing I gave them any money at all. I won’t be back as long as this course is owned and managed by this company. It’s sad to see what this course has become.

This course is a complete failure of management and maintenance. The staff had the audacity to become openly hostile and confrontational over a lack of a polo shirt, acting as if they are operating a premier, elite country club. The profound hypocrisy here is that while they are obsessively policing player attire, they have completely abandoned their fundamental responsibility to maintain the actual golf course. The playing conditions are objectively abysmal. The tee boxes are chewed up and uneven, the fairways are entirely neglected, and the greens are in atrocious shape, bumpy, unkempt, and borderline unplayable. To make matters worse, the pace of play is an absolute joke. The round took an agonizing six hours to complete, and the course marshal could not give a shit. They are completely useless, driving around without doing a single thing to enforce pace of play or manage the massive bottlenecks on the course. If management is going to aggressively demand a specific standard of dress from its patrons, it is completely unacceptable for them to offer a playing surface that is this degraded and subject players to a six-hour slog. Fix your greens, mow your fairways, repair your tee boxes, and get your marshals to actually do their jobs before you start harassing paying customers about a collar. This is an objectively terrible course and an unjustifiable waste of time and money.

The course itself is a nice and fun course but thats where the good things end. It is too overpriced for being a slightly above average course and would be 1 star if not for the amenities but the biggest offender is the staff, the food and bar staff excluded, the staff is rude and annoyed that you even book a tee time and will harass you for the smallest offenses, or will be sent by the memebers who are annoyed youre even playing on the course at all. Everytime we have gone there without fail have been stopped and harrassed by the staff. If the staff were more friendly it could easily be a 5 star course but they are so rude and hatefull it drives it all the way down
