The Golf Club at Swan Lake Resort

"I've been here earlier in the year and had a great time, whereas this time was different. The good: Course was maintained very well except for all the bunkers being under construction and/or having terrible sand it in. Since it's under maintenance, and saw people actively working on them, it didn't really bother me. The bar area staff and cart girls were friendly and great. The bad: The villa I stayed in had a lot of flies both dead and alive as well as the shower had a huge hole in it (faucet). The ugly: The rangers alone ruined the experience to the point where my 2 friends and I left the night before (we prepaid for both nights). We golfed all 4 rounds but only stayed one night. Friday - Bob was the ranger. Our second teetime was pretty much empty all around us. Since no one was behind us, the 7 of us paired up and did a scramble. On hole 5, The ranger came up to us and yelled from the cart "Absolutely not!" Didn't ask politely or anything. I explained there was no one pressing us from behind to which he told us "I don't care. It's the weekend." I asked him if we could continue our round and as soon as we see a cart behind us, we'll split back up no problem. He stayed with us talking to someone on the walkie. We eventually saw the cart when we were on the green so I said no problem we will split up. What really irritated us with Bob, is we caught up to the group in front of us by hole 7. Bob never once spoke to the group in front of us to go faster, but hung around us until hole 10 before finally leaving us alone. Furthermore, he treated all of us like his children instead of adults or respect. Even though I treated him with respect. Day 2: Ranger (name unknown) approaches us on the practice green asking when we tee off. Told him in 20min on hole #10. Again, with a disrespectful attitude, this ranger says "No you'll be on #1." We asked him if he was sure because the package on the email says hole #10 to which he replies "I don't care, this is my package, and hits his clipboard." We ask him if we can tee off early and on #10 like the day before because no one is around and we could get a head start. He laughed at us and said we will stick to what's on his clipboard. We said that's fine, but he doesn't have to be rude about it, that we were just asking questions. "I'm not being rude" as he laughs it off. Further along the day I asked a random employee to put my cart into a handicap mode due to my disability. Employee told me the GPS would be disabled to which I told him that's fine because I use my phone and rangefinder anyway. He unlocked it, and I went about my round. Bob stops us several holes later (Mid backswing on the teebox) waving his flag asking me about my cart. I explained what happened and he said he will take a look. I asked him to stop slowing us down both yesterday and today and he replied "I'm just doing my job." Once again, we got stuck behind a foursome and no ranger came to them to push their play. All in all, it was an ok time."

"Stopped at Putters bar & grill for lunch. Pork Tenderlion was a prefab, not so great patty. Battered fries & pickle chips were good. Probably won't come back just for fries & pickles though. Their double smash burger looked good like a very thick homemade burger. Not necessarily a thinner patty smashed burger with crisp edges. Staff was very nice though."

"I'll start by saying that we got unlucky with the weather and it rained for probably 2 days straight and the first day of the trip. But despite that, everyone had a great time. Both courses do not have full cart paths so if it gets really wet like it was for us, be prepared to do a little walking. Black course is definitely tougher than the silver, but even with all the water, the greens rolled well and they were both in really good shape. We stayed in the villas which are right next to the green on Black 18. Pretty sweet set up, just wish there was more of a common room other than the bedroom that has the walkout door to the back patio. IMO the Chophouse is way overpriced for the quality of the food but we found a couple spots near by that weren't too bad. Overall a pretty cool place, the golf staff were great and I'd definitely be willing to go back."
