WATER VALLEY GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB located in Water Valley, AB, Canada
This Layout is one of the best I have seen. It is a complete shame and discredit to the great and ancient game of golf that the character of the course is not reflected by the staff and resident golf pro Dennis Bradley. Around the fourth hole of play we were reprimanded for have our cart a few feet off the path. We sincerely apologized and continued play. On the fifth hole we were told that we two holes behind. My two other friends (who are seasoned players as well as myself) saw no evidence of play being held up. In fact we were a hole and a half in front of the next group. The Course Marshall followed our every move for the next 3 holes. I can't begin to tell you how intimidated and uncomfortable we all felt, so much so that by the 6th hole I stopped keeping score. We were finally left alone for about 3 holes. The course Marshall appeared again on the 11th and informed us that we were still behind by one hole. Again we saw no evidence of this, to try and keep the peace we increased our level of play( please keep in mind that two of us shoot in the low 90's and one in the low 70's.In short we are not beginners).Again our every move was followed until the 13th. The marshal appeared again on the 15 whole and told us were 2 holes behind. We maintained our distance about a hole and a half of the group behind us. Finally
we asked for a definite concrete explanation as we were now clearly being harassed for no just cause, the Marshall then sent down Dennis Bradley the Resident Golf Pro. We felt we could now talk to someone and get a decent explanation. This guy has the social skills of a four year old. He pulled up some obscure rule about keeping with the group in front of you as well as behind. The thing that made this so ridiculous is that the course was maybe 45-50% full and there was no need to get that Technical , none of us had ever heard of this rule inforced.we were told that unless our attitudes changed we should not come back. Golf is a four and a half hour game. We finished in four hours and forty five minutes; the extra time
was wasted on discussion with the resident "Golf Pro" and course marshal.
I would not recommend anybody support this course until the thinking and personnel changes are made. These guys tend to forget how their wages get paid. We came a long way, paid top dollar and were treated like dirt and cattle. Absolutely disgusted!!!!

BRAMPTON GOLF CLUB located in Brampton, ON, Canada
I was visiting family & friends on Vancouver Island and had heard what a great course Arrowsmith Golf & Country Club was to play. I not only had a great game on the beautifully manicured course but lunch was fabulous. The service was impeccable and very friendly. I will definitely recommend Arrowsmith to others. I know my family goes back to play quite often.
I give this course an 'A' plus! |

INKAMEEP CANYON DESERT GOLF COURSE located in Oliver, BC, Canada
What a disappointing day. We pay $90 on a Sunday in August to play punched greens? I seriously couldn't believe the absolute terrible quality that these greens were in. Give the players some discount if your greens are this bad. I will not play this course again, and will definitely recommend my friends to play Fairview instead of this course.
BCgolfguide asked Joe about the incident and he replied....
You know I didn't and now I regret it. I made a joke to my buddies at the start of the round, saying lets ask for our money back and go to Fairview, but no one took me seriously. I did make a comment to a guy in the pro shop when we made the turn, and he just responded by saying "everyone does their sanding now". Well after we completed our round, there was only a young kid working in the pro shop, so I didn't think it would be very useful to complain to him, and everyone was eager to get back to Vancouver, so I just left it. :( |
