Played the CCOA course for the first time in over ten years on a recent visit to Little Rock. The course and sourrounding neighborhood(s) have matured nicely. Understand course is semi-private- open to public and members. It was not very crowded on Monday morning in mid-October, so very relaxing to play with friends.

Horrible experience old head with grey short hair and glasses working front desk had an attitude from the start when getting carts, after playing the front 9 we came to grab food at the club house and he had an attitude again when we asked about the price of food then after playing the back 9 we went to turn our keys in at 6 he complained because he had just vacuumed (we didn’t know and the doors were unlocked) at that point I told him if he was going to keep his attitude he shouldn’t be working front desk he stated last time you were here it took you 2 and a half hours to play the front 9( and to not come back) which we hadn’t played this Course in 2 months and at that time it was our first time then with 4 people so why hold a grudge over that and give an attitude if that’s the case, but this was our first time seeing the guy so that can’t be true but overall if he’s working the front desk steer clear

I’m by no means a golf snob when it comes to courses, but this place is in really poor shape. The staff were all very nice and accommodating, but the course is terrible. There’s no real practice putting green. It looks like they converted an old tee box, tiny little thing. Everything looks like either they ran out of money or nobody cares, or both. Most greens are in really bad shape with weeds growing in them, bald spots, heat spots already? The fairways have poor drainage so even days after it’s rained everything is muddy, live they’re not doing ongoing maintenance or sanding. The tee boxes are an afterthought on most holes. The cart paths are a wreck, in many cases broken up and underwater from creeks and other areas that don’t drain. No signage on the course telling you where to go. There are a few holes that border some nice houses that were in good shape, but 12-15 of the holes look like a rundown municipal course. It’s a shame, because I heard this was a nice place 10-15 years ago. Again, the people working there were nice, but the facilities and grounds are very poor for a semi-private facility.

Compared to other public courses, pace of play is usually very slow. If they aren’t going to have Marshall’s enforce pace of play, they need to put more time between tee times. Also need to do some simple upkeep… trees trimmed so carts can drive under, remove debris, etc.
