What people discuss
Recent guest feedback is broadly positive about the golf courses, scenery, spa and staff, especially for group golf trips. Reviews are not uniformly glowing: some 2026 guests reported dated rooms, musty accommodations, slow food service or inconsistent service, so the strongest consensus is on the golf and setting rather than every lodging touchpoint.
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.
