What people discuss
Most public feedback is highly favorable, praising the Donald Ross golf, food, scenery and attentive service. However, the review record also contains a serious allegation of racial profiling and discriminatory treatment from a member, so the sentiment is predominantly positive but includes a notable concern about inclusivity and guest treatment.
This is what people commonly say about this Club in public reviews and articles, not a member survey or a rating from us. Weigh it alongside the facts above, not in place of them.
