Could be SO much better

This course could be so much better, but chooses not to. I play in a League every week and I’ve never been more disappointed. Course conditions have been poor all year and the on course amenities are terrible. No tee markers on some holes, no ball washers, and the pro shop just opened up a few weeks ago more than half way into the season. They have a lot of work to do before they are labeled a serious golf course.

Don't waste your money here

I don't recommend people go here. They charge people under a certain age $100 a round after 4PM. No other course in WNY charges this much. I have golfed here when they allowed 5, 6, and even 7 out at a time. I have had some of the longest rounds here in WNY. Course is always in rough shape and poorly maintained. Not worth the money or time. Would rather not golf then go here.

This course has no after golf amenities

Course conditions are very bad. They just don't take good care of this course. Traps, rough, greens, tee boxes all need a lot of attention. I played 55 rounds at area public courses this year and this is the worst. Played it twicethis year. No interest in going back.t

Getting Better

Course was in great shape this year. Still needs an investment to repair some pretty rough cart paths and numerous bare patches in the rough areas on many holes. The tee boxes also need attention on many holes. The greens were generally in good shape and putting is usually very consistent. They need to continue to make upgrades to the course to get their rating into a “4” range

Swamp

They need to invest in drainage. Second time I booked this course and second time I received a “courtesy call” on how it was flooded, minutes before my tee time. This was after I was in the parking lot coming from 2 hours away. Luckily, every other course was open in the area so I booked Dande Farms, which was an amazing choice and will be my first going forward. BTC needs to get their flooding under control. I will never waste my time with them again.

Leaves a lot to be desired

Large holes in the middle of fairways. Bunkers not taken care of. No tee markers on several tee boxes. Hole cut on 1 green right next to damaged area on green that was not new damage. No food and limited beverages. Ridiculous rules and poor response to customer concerns. It's a shame because this course can provide a high level experience.

Could improve

Course layout is good. Conditions have improved some over last year. There are NO amenities. You don't have an open clubhouse for refreshments and food. Half the holes don't have markers on the tee boxes and there are no ball washers. The price is too high unless you have a discount voucher.

Bare Minimum

Course layout was nice and some pretty holes but the course is disappointeing. Staff is minimal, no club house, they dont sell food or drinks… Literally only chips and powerades. Fine if you just want to get some holes in but there are alot better courses out there in WNY.

Poor customer service

Got caught in an unexpected storm after 2 holes. They wouldn't offer a rain check because we used a discount coupon for our round. Rain checks were offered to those in our group who paid full price. You shouldn't be treated like a second-class citizen because you opt to use a coupon.

Refreshments / food can’t be that difficult to provide

I enjoy the course, and can’t really complain as the fees are for and it’s relatively well layer out. We were absolutely starving and the only food they offered were granola bars and chips. We understand that it’s a challenge to get employees at this time but other courses seem able to have a littler cook out area with burgers and such readily available. The place of play was very slow this particular time (7/24/21) which only make the lack of food/refreshment that much worse. Also, they don’t take American Express which was crazy as many companies use that for corporate expenses. I’d come back with groups if they did.

Pricing

I really like this course in the summer. I generally like to play nine holes because of my age and endurance. It's great to play in between the leagues in the mid afternoon. My gripe is that as soon as the leagues are done for the season they eliminate the 9 holes price and only offer 18 holes. I go elsewhere then.
