St Marks Golf Course

Relatively nice course, decent value. Good meetup location for me and some of my buddies, but have to say the customer service was awful. We played the front 9 with carts and came in to ask if we could play another 9. The guy working the counter said «Walking.» I said no we would like to use the carts again and he responded louder with «WALKING!» Eventually another guy came out and explained the carts were dead from a tournament and we would need to walk, fine, no problem. If he had explained that rather than just repeating «WALKING» over and over again I would have been fine. The same rude guy from behind the counter told us we needed to be done by 7:45pm. We flew through the back 9 and were finishing the last hole when the same guy came flying out of the clubhouse on a cart at 7:40 and told us to «PICK THEM UP!» We asked if we could finish the hole and he said again «PICK THEM UP!» One of my friends went inside and told him that we liked the course, and the value and it was a good meetup spot for us but we would not be returning because he was so rude. He tried to claim he gave us «10 extra minutes.» We looked at our watches and it was 7:47. There are much better places to go in the area if you want to play golf for cheap.

A forgiving course that is wide open. The best time to play is between 10 – 1, otherwise they have leagues and the school team playing. Easy to walk. The fairways are not in great shape. The greens are fast in good shape. It is links golf with out the tall rough. Most of the greens have sand traps on both sides, you must be accurate with your short game. I would play this course after having few rounds under your belt, not for your first round of the season. You won’t lose many balls. It kind of felt like playing a US open and British open course. A fun and easy going atmosphere.

I golfed here for the first time last weekend. This is only a mind hole course and it’s $ 20 for nine. Not bad. Course is in great shape. It is a very forgiving course as there’s quite a bit of open space. Greens seem to be a little quick. I would definitely recommend this course. Tee times are preferred but there’s a good chance of getting out quick if you don’t have one.
