Well, I was invited by a member to come use the pool.The summer had been well over 95 degrees, so cooling off at the pool sounded great. Our host was kind enough to pay our entrance fee ($5 per guest when accompanied by a member). The pool was not busy at all. The water and deck were clean. There were plenty of chairs to lounge on. But the best part of the pool was having a shallow end that began at 1 ft and went to 3 ft before the rope dividing the 9 ft end started. This was perfect for taking a non swimmer/toddler. But if you are looking for a life guard, diving board or slide, this is not the place to go.
Shortly after we got there, a severe thunderstorm rolled in. We packed up, went inside, and headed toward the dining area for a light lunch. We were the last group to sit down, so we were the last to get served. It didn't seem like much of a problem until we noticed that there was only one server working and what appeared to be one cook. For a first time experience, it was not good. We sat for about 10 minutes before the server came by to apologize that it was busy and that she'd be back to take our order. So we waited some more. Less than 10 minutes later when she was caught up, she returned to take our order (2 sandwiches and 3 drinks. After another 15 minutes or so, I walked up to the counter, asked for our drinks, and took them back to the table. I bet it was more than 20 mintues until our meals were finally delivered (and mine was wrong). At this point, we just ate what was served. Once the other tables cashed out and were leaving, the server came over and sincerely apologized for such bad service. She even offered each of us popsicles. We all passed, but that was kind. The member that invited us wanted to pay for lunch, so she was gracious in doing so and was given a discount for what had happened earlier. My overall assessment was that #1, I would prefer eating at home next time, especially if everyone crowds in at once. A server can get slammed and have a bad day, but I do give her credit for apologizing. #2 Although the golf club is open to the public, the pool is not. You must come with a member. read more
