Great course, sand traps were a little rough and greens had some patches but overall it was great. Staff was was extremely friendly and helpful.

After hosting my golf tournament at the National on Saturday, August 16th, it is a must that I share the negative experience. 1. Not one but 3 golf carts experienced malfunctions. (2 flat tires) (1 weak battery) Note that it took some 20-25 minutes for carts to be replaced. Ive been playing golf over 40+ years, never before have 3 carts failed in an event that I've participated in. Lack of ice for the entire golf course. Not the fault of staff. Fault is directed at the management! Much needed customer service skills improvement on behalf of Austin the golf Director and Jaime Perkins, General Manager. Excuses were provided for the lack of maintenance with the golf carts. Tires were bald on most carts within our groups that passed us while waiting for our cart to be replaced. Explanation was that The National host some 160 tournaments throughout the year. So does Koasati Pines, so does The Golden Nugget, so does L'auberge. No flat tires or issues when playing these courses on Friday & Sunday. Note, I have hosted my tournament here for over 10+ years. No issues prior to this year. Jevon Perry previous Golf Director, excellent job!! Kudos for a job we'll done by Hunter Parker, Golf Pro. Hunter & other staff members went above & beyond to make our tournament a success. Leadership changes need to be made in my opinion. It was mentioned by Jaime Perkins the course loss money as a result of our group's slow play! Wow!! Enough said. Don't waste your money or time playing this course until changes have been made within the leadership at this course!! Mayor Hal McMillan did listen to my concerns. I appreciate his time but pretty much attempted to smooth over the concerns I brought to his attention. Our group will spend our hard earned money with the courses that appreciate us being there!!

I would highly discourage anyone from playing here if smooth greens is what you care about. There are little tufts of grass all over the green that make it impossible to get a true roll. Hopefully this goes away by summer, but until then call the course to make sure they’re cleaner. Otherwise, the $50 for twilight would be an okay price for a fun layout and some challenging holes. Fairways are in great condition but bunkers don’t drain too well. Pace of play works out well for the course (4 people all shooting +25 in our group in 4 hrs 15). One of the best practice facilities in the area and a great clubhouse. Hopefully the Poa Annua will be under control soon and then this will be a 5 star course again!
