Glenlakes Golf Club - Vista/Dunes Course

All 18 greens are toast! A few patches of grass surrounded by dirt. Avoid playing until greens can be fixed or replaced.

Have played here many times over the past 20 years. Originally a superb course designed by Bruce Devlin. They really never had the money to keep it up, but it has mostly been a pretty good course in pretty good shape.
Last time i played (last fall) the course was Ok but they were not doing anything for pace of play, and it took well over 5 hours.
This time (5/6/2025) the course was a disaster. The greens were 25-50% dirt. The little grass they had was slow but patchy and bumpy. The dirt was dirt. balls hit hard dirt and bounced like concrete, but some of the bare spots on the greens were soft ground and so soft you could plan on anything.
Several traps have been grown over with grass.
I expect I have played on a worse course from the standpoint of conditioning, but I can't remember when or where. It is a shame-the two Devlin nines were challenging years ago........

The greens are gradually improving. The rate of play was great until we hit 13, then we caught up to the log jam, but even then the wait wasn't that bad. When the greens have come back, the course will definitely be on my list of favorites.

Overall good condition but greens are thin and on poor shape

I still enjoy the course, but the greens still haven't recovered. Fairways are in good shape. All the employees in the clubhouse are pleasant to deal with and willing to help. The outside people are friendly and ready to help. I will be back.

I was a Member in 2024, at Glen Lakes. Glen lakes Greens are the worst I’ve ever seen, no Grass on the Greens. My understanding from Glen Lakes news letter indicates they had a Winter grass kill on their Greens.
* Glen Lakes is getting bad press from many of our local Golfers.
* I will not be joining Glen Lakes in 2025. I hope their greens recover.

The course is not worth the greens fee. Management should reduce the fees to reflect the horrible condition of the greens. Mostly bare ground with inconsistent areas of a bit of grass. Imagine attempting to read a washboard.

Will not return.

The greens are in very bad shape. The starter says it’s because of some snow and freezing weather they had in January but I’m not sure that’s right. You are putting through about 65% dirt with sand mixed in.

The greens are in very poor condition. Will not play here again until they have improved.

The course was in generally good condition, but it appeared very dry. However, the greens are in terrible shape. Think of the worse greens you’ve ever played, these are worse! I don’t know if they’re trying to kill off the grass to replace it or what, but they’re bad.

The course was in decent shape with the exception of the greens. The greens had little to no grass on them. Very bumpy and bare. Not a great value for price.

The greens are the worse I have ever seen. No grass, and ridiculous.
Pace of play was fine mainly because not many people playing probably due to condition of greens.

Price should be reduced and they should let you know about the greens.

The course is a great layout and fun to play. However the putting greens have some serious work needed. They have some sort of disease that needs to be taken care of. There are several holes where there is very little grass. You are putting on compacted dirt. If it weren’t for the greens this could be one of the best courses in the area.
