Point Venture Golf Course

The course is in good shape and for a nine hole course, its a gem. The cost is usually under $ 20 for cart and a round during the week. The only issue — its a long drive to Pt Venture. Its is literally across the lake from Lake Way marina.

Great course for the price, I book on GolfNow and usually pay $ 11. Friendly staff and the course is maintained well. TONS OF DEER and they are not scared to stand right in the fairway or around the greens. Cheap beer in the club house and they started an open mic session on Thursday, haven’t been to those but I’m sure it’s laid back.

It’s a neighborhood golf course in a retiree community that’s not convenient for anyone to get to but the locals. That being said, the nine holes play nicely, no hazards, difficult greens, but certainly a good atmosphere. I’ve played a couple times and enjoyed each round.

9 hole course that has groupons available on groupon now almost daily it seems. Its a par 36 and frankly its not that easy due to the very difficult, hard as a rock, sloped greens. The greens are not good and very difficult to putt. Landing pin high is not a good idea on this course. The grass in the fairways is not great either, grass missing often. Course has nice views, price awesome, pace of play quick. Cost less than 20 bucks usually, good place to bring a junior. Clubhouse really small, but fine for what it is. driving range short for big hitters, but ok to warmup.

9-​hole course without any major hazards. Watching the deer along the course was fun. Some of the fairways felt narrow, but all grass was in really good condition with no areas in bad shape. Tee boxes on every hole to play it as a par 3 course, probably really good for the junior players in your group. Will play again.

I purchased a Groupon for my girlfriend and I to play a round of golf. From a novice’s perspective, the golf course was pretty ok, with the map a wee-​bit hard to follow (we ended up going from the 2^nd to the 6^th hole, unsure of where we had to properly turn to get to the 3^rd).
My poor review has nothing to do with the golf course, however, but their poor attitude and customer service. At first, I almost wrote it off as, Well, they probably know I don’t know the first thing about golf, especially since I’m coming in with a Groupon, so maybe they didn’t want to take the time to show me around. But you know what? NO. There were several things that occurred that are simply unacceptable.
1. When making my appointment, I was merely asked, What time would you like to come in? I asked, what would be the best time. No suggestions were offered. Would it have really killed you to suggest, «Well, noon-​time is the worst time to go golfing, with the heat and all, so I would recommend mornings or late afternoons.» Me, admittedly not thinking, book for 11am, and end up burning on the course. It would have been *nice*.
2. I get there, and it reeks of cigarette smoke. We’re offered a lukewarm greeting, and just asked whether we want balls or not, tees or not, clubs or not. No conversation, no asking if we’ve ever golfed before, no explaining of the map, how to use the golf cart, NOTHING. I feel that if you put yourself up on Groupon, you should expect a certain number of people who are coming in just-​for-​fun. Look ALIVE people. Please don’t act like we’re wasting your time, even if we are. I’m not saying the customer is always right, but when it comes to service, it pays to be friendly and accommodating.
3. On our return, we entered the cigarette-​smelling entrance, and the woman was at her computer desk. We handed her our clubs and told her where we parked the cart. She said, ok, you’re good to go, without making any kind of eye contact, never even getting up from her computer. And that was it. No «did you have a good game?» «thank you for coming» or «have a great day». UNACCEPTABLE.
So PVGC, thank you for making me feel like me and my gf were thoroughly unwelcome in your establishment. I hope you and your snooty, unhelpful, and down-​right rude attitude have a wonderful life together.
