Fairways and greens in great shape

I am new to the north side and while I have many courses to play still, I was happy with Rob Roy. Overall, this was a nice pace with good course conditions at a very fair price. I will play here again.

Unfriendly course

Unfriendly staff, golfers, and just people overall. Unfortunately had a bad experience with the wife taking her out the first time on a course. The man working at the desk was rude out the gate with the first words being “TIME”. Not sure where he’s from but pretty sure people say hello or good afternoon in modern society. He made us wait 5 minutes to show up at the desk. I wanted to rent some clubs and the same man forgot that my wife was going to be the one paying and lending her card so he bangs on a window as I walk out and yells at me saying I need to pay. A random woman asking “what time are you” aggressively outside. Not to mention that the course is literally next to a busy road/senior subdivision of row homes the whole time. Everything felt rushed and unfriendly. Only good thing I can say is everything is well kept and clean. Also, a bunch of kids fishing around all the ponds and you have to warn them every time before you hit someone. Won’t be coming back unfortunately unless things get better.

Great except for goofs walking on the cart path

Overall great especially considered the time of year. Some oblivious people were walking on the cart path like a Sunday stroll and wouldn’t get off even when told they just kept walking. Club house should have done something, maybe they did and I just don’t know about it

Nice narrow course

Course is tight so you have to hit straight and leave the driver in the bag ion several holes.
Great staff and fun shorter course.

Very Accommodating staff

I arrived on the 23rd at about 11:15 for a 11:40 tee time. Went to check in and ooops discovered I booked for a week later. Front desk staff couldn’t have been nicer as they waited for me to cancel and rebook for 11:40 that day as he generously squeezed me in. Really great customer service

I like to play this 9 hole course. The course is in great condition. The staff is friendly and very accommodating.

Love to play the 9 hole golf course and come back as long as the weather is good. I’ll miss the course, the friendly staff when winter comes and I’ll play in many other courses in the sunny side of the globe. (Asia Pacific). Golfer at 80+

Great 9 hole course

My 60 year old dad, my 13 year old son, and I all had fun at this course. Was priced just right for 9 holes and 2 carts for our group. Had water hazards, sand traps and trees to deal with which was what we enjoy. Nice mix of Long yardage holes and short par 3's. Course was well taken care of as well. Very nice!

ROB ROY PLEASANT FIT

I always find this course very pleasant to play at.

It;s a rather tight course , so you have to keep the ball straight. There are many bunkers, and some were wet because of the previous night's rain. You do not have to be a long ball hitter to play! Will play this again.
