Have always liked

Tamarack is one of those courses you go to so you can feel better about your game. Normally in good shape, not overly hard, but having some interest.

The issue this time was the water. It was everywhere. Puddles in the fairways, traps filled, tees wet, creeks up. With nowhere to go, the water just sits there. Greens were OK.

All that said, I will be back because I know what this course can be.

Overpriced

Overpriced compared to other courses in the area. Sand bunkers are some of the worst. Full of rocks. No water coolers on the course.

First Time Playing

Very professional

We had a 10 o’clock tee time canceled because of a heavy rain that night before.
The course actually called to let me know my reservation was canceled and that I needed to contact Golf Now to cancel it there. I went to Teetime and it was already canceled.
I wish everything in life was this easy!

Course in great shape for time of the year.

Couldn't play after 3hrs of waiting

I arrived 20mins before my tee time at 10 only to have the staff said oh, no one called to tell you that we're on a snow delay. We're letting people on the course at 11. I left to run some errands and upon returning I was told again snow delay til 1pm. Unfortunately, I could not play due to prior commitments and staff did not apologize or anything. I was not happy. Fortunately my commitments did not happen so I proceeded to search out another course to play and was able to. The original course i like playing at but the way they handled the situation was poor

Charged for cancellation l didn’t submit

I had booked a tee time on 2/21 for that Friday 2/23 to play at Tamarack a course l frequently play. Well my tee time was somehow cancelled so l had to re book as l had never planed on not playing. I was charged still for the cancellation that l did not choose to process so l ended up paying twice to play one round. As often as l book through the app l would really appreciate a refund or some type of reimbursement for the charged cancellation fee time that l did not choose to cancel in the first place. You can see in my history on the app that l still booked the same day to play on 2/23.

Angry Mower

I will start with a positive, the greens were in good shape as well as the fairways. The tee boxes however, were in poor shape. In many cases it was flat dirt to hit off off, as well as uneven surfaces.

What was really egregious was that my friend and I were playing and the signs directing cart traffic pointed both directions going outside of the green area. As we drove to the right of the green, a large dude on a lawn mower shouted very loudly that we needed to follow the cart signs. We shouted back over the sound of his running lawn mower that they point both ways, to which he yelled even louder this time to follow the signs. We again said the signs point both ways so he could fix them, and he just yelled so belligerently at the top of his lungs to follow the signs. We just shook our heads and drove off.

Last, the pace of play is not enforced. To the point the young man in the club house asked us how slow it was going for us out there, as he knew when we teed off. This is a problem in all of St. Louis, so certainly not exclusive to Tamarack, but rangers really need to enforce pace.
