In spite of these tough times (oe maybe because of them) Waterview has gone up 5 dollars on their senior rates.

Tough course for short hitters. Has 4 four pars over 400, but all are open so you can run up a fairway wood if necessary. Wide open with little water. Except for the length, its very playable. Great greens. Fairway are often wet.

Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area

Major problem on this course has been slow play and one of the main reasons could be fixed by the course. The cart signs are set on a lot of holes around the 100 yard mark. This leads to leaving cart and walking 50 yards and back or driving to green and walking back. This and cart path only are the 2 major issues on most of the courses we play and these are the 2 complaints for senior golfers.

Would travel: 20-30 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing

Slow play, twosomes not paired. We had 2 twosomes in front of us and a twosome behind us. Marshalls all over the course but don't seem to be doing anything to speed up play. But main problem is the cart signs out 100 to 140 years in the fairway. you either park and walk up and hit and come back or go to the green and walk back. Most all of the courses in our area have either no cart signs or around 50 years at the most. We have complained but no results. What is so important about that 100 years. This is a great place to play but this cart sign thing is a problem.

Would travel: 10-20 Miles
Bottom line: I would play again, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
