The Ranch Club

expensive average golf

2.0 of 5 starsReviewed July 31, 2017

it's a bit a copy of an irish links course, no tree, no bush, some water hazards and sand bunkers. the latter are placed the way that they normally do no harm. fairway and greens are in very good condition. so far it would be a good 3 star course.
now the shortcomings, and those are of course measured at the stiff green fee of 80-90 $.
long walks between greens and t-boxes.
you pay for the electric cart, even if you walk the course. the biggest challenge of a links course is usually the high grass. but don't worry, the fairways are so wide (far too wide), that it takes a big miss to be in the grass (its a fake copy of a links course). the sand in the bunkers is very hard. finally, the water is about on fife holes the biggest hazard.
for such a green fee, i expect a challenging quality golf course with some holes to remember and where a bit of work is needed for a good result. that's not the case here.
