Terrible layout

Not a great layout. Several holes you didn’t know which green you were hitting into from 100 yards out. Some holes impossible to hit green in regulation. Very narrow as well, apartments and houses everywhere. Worst part we’re the greens, very small, and also we’re super slow. It was like putting on carpet.

Disappointed

We have played Old Orchard many times but this time may be our last. Pace of play was very bad as there seemed to be one slow foursome and with no rangers they never picked up play. We waited on nearly every shot. The tee boxes were very uneven and grass was long. Leaves were bad but there is not much you can do about that. Overall our group voted to give this one a rest for a few years.

Declining

It was a nice sunny day but windy. Tee boxes were in very poor shape. Uneven and not easy to find a level good spot. Greens were not as good as previously played. We have played here a few times but nearly all of our foursome said there are better places to play for the money. It took us 4 hours and 45 minutes to play which is too long. No rangers appeared to be out on the course.
