Response to a nonsense review.

I have never written this kind of a golf review in my 28 years plus golfing but I felt like I should now. I read a 1/5 star review written 4 months ago . I am sure I played on the same day or one or two days before this player. He appeared to be a one of those guys who is never satisfied in any circumstances. Obviously he was a first time player here and out-of-town player but not too far and just looking for a cheap fees. He even embarrassed his buddy with a constant cursing. My wife just pretended not hearing him.
Here’s my review. 1. Greens were unduly but fast that give the players more challenging and fun. There were some divots that some players didn’t repair. Tee boxes were not in the best shape but the staff moved the markers around. Just observe the rule. Fairways had some spots yes. Bunkers were not in the best shape due to recent rain and rather shallow. Now, the pace of the play. Three of us finished the round, starting at 11:50 a. m in 3 hours 21 minutes. Three holes behind us, there appeared to be some elderly or disabled foursome playing and they seemed to be playing slow but not too bad. Perhaps this guy was following them. He could have asked to play through or skip a hole.
Now, driving. I drive 67 miles one way to play here when they have good deal. At 85 years old with pension and social security, $39 is all my wife and I can afford.
My humble message to this kind of unethical players is that, “Please stay away from this La Contentaso that we may enjoy better. Thanks. .”

Just fantastic everything today!

Staff let us start early thanks to less players on the course. Perfect weather and some cool breeze stroking my face made the game just fantastic. Completed the twosome round in 3 hrs and 15 minutes. We had this record time for us only in Atlanta Georgia some 25 years ago when I didn’t have much white hair. Two birdies and almost three more made me feel a lot younger myself. Thanks again the pro shop friend who has been always courteous and friendly. Just a wonderful day of a rounding.

Needs help

I love playing at this course but my most recent round was absolutely terrible. The fact that they have multiple days that they do scrambles and never tell anyone or block out times causes huge backup issues. All day yesterday I was fighting for some kind of pace of play. I would say about 85% of my time was waiting just to have enough room for me to hit my shot. The shortest weight that I had was 5-6minutes and the longest wait I had was well over 15 minutes just to hit my next shot. The course Marshalls never helped or tried to aid to the pace of play it would just go out there and end up talking to everyone causing slower pace of play times for other groups

Perfect course in this kind of season.

Perfect winter weather in the upper 50’s with a little chilly atmosphere. Always friendly and courteous pro shop staff. Some wet spots still and the pace of the play was a bit slow due to some slow players. Still the beautiful scenery and the course layout makes it worth to drive up here 65 miles one way.

Greens

I played this course several times many years ago, but I've never seen the greens in such bad shape! The majority of them were horrible ... And I traveled 2 hrs (88 miles) to play there ...

Love this course

Greens are rolling very nicely, and fairway are in great shape , if only I could keep my golf ball there. The New golf carts are a great addition and the staff is very friendly.

First Time Playing

Played the course for the first time on Feb. 9th. The course has a great mixture of elevation, movement and trouble ! Be prepared to use your stinger, punch and flop shots as the course designer will challenge you to be accurate and creative on at least every other hole (every hole if you dont stay in the middle of the fairway !). As the hill holes can be diabolical at times, the vistas are soothing and will remind you why golf is such a fun/challenging game. Use the yardage sheet and know your carry number on each club. I plan to be back and will be bringing my golf buddies to La Contenta to enjoy this fun course as well.

Great Track

I love the layout at this course. Placement ball is what it has become in my old age. Can't keep up with the long hitters, so a shorter course like this gives me more of an advantage. The fairways were not great but it is the season. i thought the greens were slow as well but ran true. Pace of play was a little slow but we finished in 4 and half.

GolfNow staff created a mega problem.

GolfNow staff booked the tee time for us when the other course rained out. It should have been a simple task but two staff members made it mega problems because both of them didn’t do it right. I had to waste my time for 65 minutes, lost the reserved tee times, lost my face to my guest and above all my dignity and temper.
After 1 hour and 15 minutes late and paid the green fees again but at the higher price, we barely completed the 18 holes after the sunset. However, the course and the weather was great for the game. The staff member, John, watched the whole show and admired my patience with the GolfNow staff who even lied about his supervisor being sick with the COVID-19! GolfNow should offer a better training of the staff in customer relations.

Super fun!

I’m a Greenskeeper at Greenhorn Creek golf course and my brother and I played here for the first time. We had a great time we played with two other guys and everything went smooth. The course is well maintained and the greens were nice!
