They Aereated 1/2 of all the GREENS. It's bumpy. It's bad and I was really disappointed. Truth be told I thought they aerated middle of September boy was I wrong. Greens are terrible now really bumpy and no one is bothering to fix their divots. No pride in ownership here. Fairways OK. We were behind a foursome of knuckleheads. I felt our group played fast but these guys were just plain slow. It was painful. So much in fact we stopped following them after 13. No point it was clear we wouldnt finish the round so we skipped around. If a group is faster than your group it's OK to let them play through. Even playing as poorly as I was we played pretty quickly the group ahead was just plain ... painfully slow.

Being one of only five golf courses open to the public in the South Bay you would think they would have better playing conditions. Considering the amount of play they have; from what I heard some major greenskeeper staff turnover and the like the course could be a lot worse for the money. Greens have come back well from their areation. Still a little bouncy and some really bare spots on the green around the edges can be a bit of a dissappointment. Compared to the last time I played here... they have done a lot of work. Greens roll slow which is OK for me. They are also receptive which is a big plus. Fairways were somewhat lush but overwatered in certain areas. You need to rope off those areas including the overwatered rough sections to help preserve the grass. Otherwise it will die and you will have bare spots sooner rather than later. Play was SLOW. I mean crazy slow. We were a fivesome keeping up with a foursome in carts. It was funny. Round was approximately 5 hours. I figure in another week the course should be in great condition (greens) as they heal completely from the aeration. But if you decide to play now you won't be disappointed. Greens are typical muni but show they have been cared for well. Just one pet peeve. Folks FIX YOU DIVOTS! They don't fix themselves.

it is plenty true about the greens being damaged. i personally think that this course is played too much. it took me 5 hours to finish today starting at twilight. their driving range is right into the... Continue »

it is plenty true about the greens being damaged. i personally think that this course is played too much. it took me 5 hours to finish today starting at twilight. their driving range is right into the wind. so you cant get accurate yardage on your clubs. if your index is over 10 then the greens are fine. thats my opinion. good luck.

When youdon't repair a ballmarkand it sits fora few days THE GREEN DIES!!! No one at this place fixes a mark or has a clue for that matter. It's a decent layout but the morons that play here need to ... Continue »

When youdon't repair a ballmarkand it sits fora few days THE GREEN DIES!!! No one at this place fixes a mark or has a clue for that matter. It's a decent layout but the morons that play here need to have some respect for the course. What would it cost to put a sign in the carts about this. BUT GOD FORBID AMERICAN GOLF GAVE ENOUGH OF A sh$t TO DO THIS. Marshals? Non-existent. Cart Girl? Why try to make a few bucks for maintenance? I think the greens are being maintained by Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles! Chester washington is rolling in his grave.

Something of a surprise. conditions overall were good. I was worried by the first green being in very bad shape, bumpy and patchy. But have patience, the rest of the course was in good condition. ... Continue »

Something of a surprise. conditions overall were good. I was worried by the first green being in very bad shape, bumpy and patchy. But have patience, the rest of the course was in good condition. Greens were a little slow and the rough a bit patchy but better overall than I had been told.
Played Saturday Morning Aug 30 and kept up a good pace. The starter shuffled the starting foursome like cards but once we were away we didn't have many waits on the course.

Played today 7/27 - Back 9 -
The course is not in the best shape right now - the greens are still sandy from punching. Which I though was a month ago, they might be re-sanding the greens. One of the... Continue »

Played today 7/27 - Back 9 -
The course is not in the best shape right now - the greens are still sandy from punching. Which I though was a month ago, they might be re-sanding the greens. One of the greens was destroyed by a diease or something. They are going to repair it soon, I almost tripped on the alternate hole they dug.

The fairways needed some help as well but I have seen them go dormat for a minute and then come back to green. They might have mis-calculated the watering of the faiways. Please fix the Tee Boxes

The pace of play is typical for Chester - the guys in front of us were betting, and the guys behind us were pushing.

Overall it was a good day to get out and hit some. I have full confidence that this course will be back in shape.

Played here Saturday May 3rd. I joined a group with a 9:40 tee time and they sent us out 5 minutes early. The course was in good shape and fairways were pretty smooth, but the greens still haven't completely recovered from the recent aeration. Pace of play was good, only a short wait at one hole - the first par 3- but it was a short wait. Finished in just under 5 hours.

An interesting course with 2 lakes..sometimes hilly for walkers..the employees in the Pro Shop are particularly helpful.

Good news: Teed off at 1:20PM on a friday and finished in 3 1/2 hours!!! Bad news: Had a 12:30 tee time and was delayed by a tournament that started an hour late. If they wanted to study slow play from the wrong tees, not caring about other groups on the course, or fixing any ballmarks, this place would be the lab. They are punching the greens tomorrow so stay away for a while.
