Much improved over 2023

Played last year. Layout and staff are fantastic as always. Last year the greens were a 2 on a scale of 1 to 10. They are much improved, I'd give them a 6 or 7 now. Will improve more with the weather. Way to go staff!!

Nice course but the greens were awful.

I've played this course 10 different times through the years and this was by far the worst shape I've ever seen the greens. They were patchy, what appeared to be 3 levels of grass. Was truly hard to putt with any consistency.
The staff was great and I've always enjoyed the the other courses too. Just sad to see this good courses greens so bad. Hopefully they'll get it back right soon!

Thank you for the very nice Four Star review of Panther's Run. We truly appreciate your patronage and your feedback. We apologize the greens were not at their best on this visit. We did overseed them with Poa Trivialis this winter and they were very nice for months, but they are going through the natural short-term transition brought on by the quick warm-up of the weather this year. They will improve quickly and should be in great shape for the remainder of 2024 and beyond. We hope you will visit us again and see our continued progress. Thanks again!

Coarse was under construction

I like the course layout I thought the clubhouse was very nice, but there was a lot of construction. The cart paths were very back jarring when I was done playing I was in some pain because of the construction that we had to drive over.

My first review ever

Tee’d off 10 min late, took 2 hrs and 40 min to play the front nine and 5 hrs and 30 min overall. The ranger told us it was busy lol. It was so slow that the two groups of women in front of our foursome dropped 3 players at the turn and played as a fivesome and never lost ground to the group in front of them. Brutal. And the greens were patchy and inconsistent for this time of year.

We deeply apologize for the slow play issue you described below. As this is the height of our busiest season, play can sometimes be slower than ideal, due to the large volume of players on the course, many of whom might be playing the course for the first time. Our course marshals are instructed to try to keep play moving at a good pace, but sometimes this can be difficult, due to many factors. I would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you further about this issue. If you would, please contact me directly at blong@oceanridge.com, as I would like to hear more about this matter and see what we can do to make amends. Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon.
