Poppy Hills Golf Course

Another round at a great course. The staff was helpful and friendly. The course is in great shape, with the greens as challenging ever.

Wow there sure are a lot of golf courses. I don't know how to feel about that.

Played at Poppy hills today, March 27, 2019. I usually play at a club in Illinois. The course appeared to be in good shape after aeration several weeks ago. The practice green was fast but all greens on the course were slow. Bunkers were in good condition. There were intermittent very light showers but I expected the greens to roll much better for this level course. The views are very nice with beautiful large trees but certainly not spectacular.

Overall a pretty nice course.
However, the service was disappointing. Starter told me if my handicap was over 10 I should tee off from Poppy 2. After reaching the first par 5 in 2 I reviewed the scorecard which suggests 2s for a handicap over 14. No one helped me when I pulled up to the bag drop. No food or drink cart on course. No one helped when I returned to bag drop after round. No one offered to clean clubs. I had to put the push cart away myself. Staff act like it’s beneath them to help you out.

Level of service is a surprising when paying $260 with push cart for a visitor. I didn’t play Pebble Beach due to recent aeration. I may play that in the future but don’t think I’ll be back to Poppy.

This course is awesome ,I came up with my mark twiane saying after this round of golf ,twaines saying was "the coldest winter I ever spent was the summer I spent in San Francisco". My saying is "the longest golf course I ever walked was the time I took a cart at poppi hills" and trump national. Cart path only for alot of the course . Which means your going to do alot of walking . I'm a 4 handicap so I hit it where I'm aimed alot , but by the time we finished 18 it felt like we played 27 or more . Great course A++;;++
