Played Eagle Glenn on 12/30/2010, what a disappointment. We arrived to find they were charging holiday rates all week, no mention of this when I made the reservation or in the email flier. To make matters worse they made us go out as a 5, can you say 6 1/2 hr round. As if all of that wasn't bad enough, you could not find a dry lie on any fairway and the bunkers were water or mud hazards. When we completed the round we looked like we had been to a mud wrestling contest rather then golfing. The course was in such poor shape I'm not sure why they would even allow play ($$) in this condition. It will be a long time before I return to Eagle Glen..

This course has taken a bit of a beating from all the rains - not sure there is much the ground crew can do as the hillsides adjacent many fairways are just weeping water. #1, 2, 3 & 16 were particularly wet and times not very playable. Cart path only as a result (and probably because of that no one os filling in there divots so there's a lot of divot damage on the fairways, along with a lot of re-sodding. Not sure what previous reviewers were thinking as a perfect illustration of how much the course has suffered are the washed-out, temporary cart paths on 15, 16, 17.

Rough is mainly dormant but it's inconsistent as there is also some thin lies and some real fluffy new growth - the dormant parts are very spongy and extremely difficult to hit from.

Tee boxes have taken a pounding here and there too with a lot of divot marks.

Greens were good, but a bit slower than normal, somewhat bumpy and inconsistent speed-wise (no doubt due the drainage problems).

Worth the discount greens fee but probably not full rate.

Played Tuesday morning. A little late teeing off not a big deal. CPO as expected. Played in 4.5 and waited a bit. Greens were great. Fairways a little long in spots but not bad. Lots of sod planted in the fairways but did not affect play. Greens were great.

#2 had some mud and water damage. But did not affect play. Great day.

Just played Eagle Glen this morning and had a great time! After reading the previous poster's comments, I was a little aprehensive to keep my tee time. I have to say that I agree with him on the comments about the staff being great, but I'm not really sure where he was coming from with the comments about the actual golf course. Here is my review of all aspects of the course:
Greens - Fast, firm, and true. NO BARE SPOTS. Minimal pitch marks (which our group helped out to fix a couple on every hole)
Fairways - Good grass coverage although a little wet in low areas. As far as the comment in the previous post about the grass being dead....not true! It is bermuda grass that is begining to go dormant....it's a big difference! It is starting to brown a bit because they didn't overseed (which I was told you can't do every year) but it did NOT affect playability.
Rough - Read comments about fairways
Bunkers - Was only in a 2 bunkers today (both greenside) and they were fantastic.
Tee Boxes - Level with good grass coverage.
Beer Cart - Saw the beer girl 5 times!

Overall- I highly recommend getting out to play Eagle Glen! I am a 3 handicap and my Dad is a 20 and we both really enjoyed the layout.

Played Saturday, 12/04 at 11:00. Round lasted 5 hours, saw the beverage cart three times. Every member of the staff I dealt with was very friendly and accommodating, which was great; one of the most exceptional customer service experiences I've had on a golf course to date. The clubhouse was beautiful and luxurious, and the restaurant had great food and drinks. There were amazing views of the local mountains and valleys throughout the round. Okay, now comes the hard part: The course was, in my opinion, terrible. My twosome was paired up with a member, who stated that the course purposely decided not to overseed this year. It really showed in the course condition. Fairways were mostly dormant/dead, with many bare areas and mostly muddy lies. The rough was similar to the fairways, just a little fuller. Bunkers were either hardpan or mud, with a few rocks in the mix as well. Greens were running at about an 11, really fast, but only because they were very hard and bare in spots. They rolled somewhat true, but had a few bumps and unrepaired pitch marks. The majority of the back nine, from tee to green, was covered in duck feces; there was even a dead duck in the middle of one of the fairways which appeared to have been there for a while. Putting through duck poop isn't very fun, and cleaning it off your shoes, clubs and ball is a chore. The layout of this course is already very difficult, with many forced carries, abundant uneven fairway lies, undulating greens and some holes that were designed to be just plain hard; the unfortunate course conditions put the difficulty of play for me over the top. I am a 20 hcp, so take this review with a grain of salt if you are a better player...you may have a much better time than I did. Ultimately, I just could not score well out there, and even though the customer service experience was amazing, I will not be returning.

Played Eagle Glen this morning with a friend of mine and got a smoking deal on Golfnow.com for only $35.00 with a GPS equipped cart. Arrived at the course about 45-minutes prior to tee off and practiced putting on their practice green. Greens rolled nice and true and had some sections with undulation. Unfortunately, the driving range didn't open until 8:00AM and out tee time was for 7:30AM.

It was definitely cold this morning and I could barely feel my hands. Now I know why places like Golfsmith sell mittens! I would much rather have purchased some of those hand warming gel packs! Anyways ....

Eagle Glen is a very nice track. There is a good combination of holes with wide and narrow fairways. There is even a hole or two with split level fairways. Most, if not all of the greens were well guarded and made you think about approach shot. Pin placement was mixture of nice and "what the heck were they thinking?"

This was the first time (in a long time) that I lost a lot of balls. I blamed the cart's GPS but later tonight at the range, I realized that it was ME that was blocking some shots out to the right!

The pace of play was fantastic! We finished the entire round in about 3.5 hours. We weren't rushed at all. The course is in great condition and well worth the internet rates. This course, along with several others in the local area, are surrounding by very nice and probably expensive homes. Once the homes become out of sight, the mountain views are real nice with numerous elevation changes.

All in all, I had a great time in spite of my terrible score. I recommend brining a few sleeves of balls and think even the "gold" tees are plenty challenging. This track is not the longest but, plenty of undulation, blind shots, elevation changes, dog legs and split fairways is making me want to come back for some payback.

Enjoy!

Played Tues 11/09. As I sat in the clubhouse having breakfast, the view of the course in the early morning was tremendous. The course looked light green and the hills were dark green in contrast. The baby rabbits near the putting green were a nice touch. Tee boxes were level, trimmed and had the divots filled in. Rough was high and you could lose a ball if you didn't walk right on top of it. Fairway bunkers had a harder sand in them, more compressed. The greenside bunkers, by contrast, had fluffy sand. Fairways were firm with the new sod starting to blend in. Greens were firm and rolling smooth. Carts were clean and beverage cart came by 4 times. Customer service is outstanding throughout. Very sparse day for players. Great pace of play.

Course is great shape, the greens, fairways, tee boxes, everything. Lots of elevated tees, with beatiful views of the surrounding hills. Wide fairways, pleasant staff, pretty beer girls. For the money, one of the best courses around.

Played here on 10/16/10, 12:08 tee time. Man, what a bummer. I love this course. Has a great mix of flat and elevated holes, the scenery is fantastic, and the course was in really good shape! Greens rolled true and pretty quick. Would have been a great day, except that it took us 5.5 hours to get through 15 HOLES.....we quit after that. There were no marshalls out enforcing pace of play, which would have done the trick as we found that we when we went in, it was one group two ahead of us that was 3 holes behind. We passed them up (at this point now just a twosome since we left our group to go in) and decided to play 18 real quick since no one was there. You can see #17 green from the 18th green and we found that, even though we were a twosome, we played 18 (a par 5) from tee to green in the amount of time it took the slow group to simply get on #17 green.....which is a par 3. Aside from the good course conditions, it was a very frustrating day given that we payed for 18 holes and could only get through 15. The course needs to do a better job of marshalling.
