12 bucks for a mini bag of “range balls” which are all neon yellow by the way and scuffed up. At least Mitch and the old guy behind the counter were nice other than that the Marshall was not nice at all. He stood and watched us tee off like we were at a liv event( my ball went OB thank you very much). Go Sox!

The pro shop staff is incredibly rude, obnoxious and uses foul language. I will never go there again and i advise anyone else wanting to play golf, go somewhere else.

Absolutely rude and disrespectful front desk Mr Mitch and mickey whoever their real name is. Actually we complained about the un-trained and stupid golfers who always hit towards the houses- damaging the properties upto $1000’s. Along with the shattered windshields of vehicles. Some Morons don not even know how to play and the residents have to suffer and pay the price and there is no proper handling the situation not even have the courtesy to listen and apologize. Many such incidents happened and all complained but no proper response or accountability. What a disgrace to city of portarthur. N…

Overall everything was good, but this one kid kept screaming six seven, and he was also blasting music of this one guy called Victor Mendivil or something like that. He was also chasing this other kid trying to hug him which was pretty distracting and I’m pretty sure he was saying something like king to him. But the actual course was okay, maybe better tees, but yeah nothing too bad✌️

It's your basic beginners 18 hole reasonably priced golf course. I golfed there on my 59th birthday it was 90 some degrees with 90 some humidity didn't think I'd make it to my 60th but I did I was able to walk right on during the middle of the week people were friendly and helpful. Water in the coolers was actually cold and I didn't get sick or die from it. Some of the bathrooms were a little rough other than that Id definitely play it again

Greens are absolutely atrocious. The maintenancing of this course is pitiful. Honestly this course should be embarrassed by how awful this course plays. Can't tell the difference between the green and the fairway hell cant tell a difference from rough and fairway its that bad. Highly recommend you take your money elsewhere.

Just was testing out the putters for sale in the pro shop and was told by a cranky old man that I’m not allowed to use the demos. I’ve had enough, i challenge him to the octagon. He doesn’t own the cranky old man package. He said i’m broke and have no money but little does he know I got my money up and my funny up.

Out of town for work, I always bring my golf clubs bc golf has always been a get away for me. Showed up at 4:30 (Google says course closes at 7) “ no carts after 4pm “ says the old dude with an attitude. He did hook me up with a push cart so that was a plus, got 7 holes in and it started to get dark so I decided to head in around 6:15 thinking I’d go to the pro shop and get a hat that caught my eye keep in mind it’s 6:30! They don’t close until “7” again old man at the counter “registers closed sorry.” I was trying to give them more money! I don’t think I’ll be back to this course. Really payi…

Enjoyed 18 here today. Nice course with good/friendly people (and I’m not just saying that to avoid the octagon! 🤣). Just passing through or I would definitely return. Good value for the price. Cheers.

Awful experience! Not even an hour into my tee time and me and my party of three were harassed by the Marshal and the grounds crew! We did nothing wrong, literally set up for the first hole and couldn’t even get the first swing off. Marshal stared at us and followed us the entire time for about 4 holes and could even get a swing off without him lecturing us or making his preferred golfers cut us! Made us very uncomfortable for about 4 holes. Would not recommend golfing here unless you love to be charge $100 plus dollars to be harassed and not be able to golf in peace.
