Nice views, challenging course
It had been quite a while since I played this course as I live near the coast and it is 50 mil trek one way. However; I found the course to be in pretty good condition; with fast but true greens and enough grass or turf on the fairways to make good contact etc. It is a challenge but that is what I like as you have the possibility of using every club in your bag and are challenged with both uphill and downhill tees and greens; supplemented with some sloping fairways. If I lived closer I would play a couple of times a month or more instead of a couple of times a year! Off course amenities are good and the staff friendly.
Extremely hard
The course needs a lot of work on the fairways, sand traps and t-boxes. The elevation changes are rediculous. This is not for the average golfer! There were no more than 10 golfers on the entire course and I had to play alone! Sorry for the negative review, blame Greg Norman!!
See for yourself!
Had fun at this course. Enjoy the layout. Various lie angle changes. Lots of ravines to carry. Supposedly the grass is dormant at this time. It’s definitely in hibernation. The course is very brown. And seems to Need plenty of TLC. Paid $52 To play this past Saturday. Possibly a justified rate, or a bit overpriced. Greens are fast. Bunkers need work also. Would still recommend playing it.
Good course for the price
Made tee time 4 days after they completed their punch green week. I took gamble and hope the greens were restore but they were not. Most of the green were slow and sandy. Fairways were decent shape. Some holes had dead grass but for the most part it was ok. Pace of play was slow due to group ahead of us. No marshal in sigh to get them to pick up the pace. If it wasn't for that group we would of finish in under 4 hours. Group of 4. The course is challenging. Handful of blind shots. We played from the Silver tee. You can't hit driver on several holes. It help we played with someone who has played there before. Otherwise we would of had tough time. Overall it was good looking course, with challenging holes and fair price for Saturday.
Overall the course is in desperate need of water ( Bone dry} There were some newly planted trees and they are dying too. Greens are dry grass looks like artificial grass. You can hardly find the markings on the tee boxes.The Fairways are narrow and hilly if you don't land in the middle of the fairways your ball will end up in the ravine forget going after your ball there are warning signs to look out for snakes.
I wouldn't play this course for FREE!!!!
Course had great features to offer.
We just played the course at the wring time. Greens were aerated and fairways were brown in a lot of areas.
Deceiving
I booked a round here and when we got to the course the greens had just been punched and sanded the day before. There was no warnings on golf now on airification and it was like putting in a sand bunker
Vellano Country Club - A great experience!
Vellano CC is a beautiful, well maintained, and very challenging course! The Pro Shop is staffed by very courteous and knowledgeable personnel and has most golf items you would expect to find at a pro shop. They have a strict dress code and expect you to play with appropriate golf etiquette. This course is not for a beginner as it features a number of elevated tees and heavily bunkered greens and sometimes fairways. The course undulates through a beautiful gated and pristine neighborhood with some really breathtaking views of million dollar plus homes.
They have a great mix of par 5s and 4s which are fairly long and always challenging because it is not very forgiving of shots that are not in the fairway! They do not have a lot of par 3s but the ones they have are really challenging with the exception of the first on hole number 2. This course is one of the best in terms of having to think thru each of your shots, and some very complex greens to read that vary in speed. I highly recommend this course for a great golfing experience!
Course layout
The course has good amenities and facilities. But the layout is not great for the average golfer. As if the course isn't hard enough, there's holes that require s 200 yard drive just get to the fairway. And the course doesn't seem well.maintained either. Many of the tee boxes are uneven and the grass is damaged.
I would not play here again unless there is a great deal like the one I had online.
Great course design but...
The course management isn't properly caring for the course. Most of the course appears to be dying and the greens aren't well maintained.
Also, there's no course marshal and some other groups were taking too long. It took about 6 HOURS to complete our round of golf (waiting 10-15 minutes at every tee).
Good test of your golf game
Love the greens at Vellano. The course layout demands focus and is a great test of all facets of your game. Challenging but enjoyable.
Course conditions
Tough course to begin with but enticing when the rough stops the ball. Quite unfair right now with brown grass and zero rough. Quality drives get penalized as the ball rolls into the next fairway. Greens were nice and rolled pretty true
What a waste of a good course! Will never go again!
I have played 3-4 times already since last Oct, but the course condition got worse every time. The management doesn't water the course at all. The fairways are all dry with grass dead. The fairway will not hold the ball because of the dryness, the green speed is not constant because of poor maintenance. My shoes and pants got dirt and sand all over because the desertification is taking place on this course. The layout of this course is excellent and I can tell how great this course used to be, but it is now one of the most terrible courses I have ever played, even with the cheap price. I will definitely not coming back and play again.
Shortage of maintenance
This is a very challenging golf course in local, We played once at least a Quarter. But obviously the fairways are short to be maintenance as the glass are dried and dead like the artificial turf and like the carpet, the ball were rolling down very fast every where.
Difficult to play
The couse layout is superb.
But, this course is difficult to play.
Also they did not water fairway enough.
Just close the place
Close it. If you do not want to maintain it and control the pace of play then close it. 6 years ago it was beautiful and not it is total trash. Complete mismanagement
