    Course was in good shape, wish the snack bar was open. Play was slow as many families were out as…read moreit was Easter. Great experience and great opportunity to introduce my 14year old grandson to the sport. Staff was fantastic. I definitely will be back.

    Start with the greens, if you can call them that. Rather than the smooth, consistent surfaces one…read moreexpects to putt on, you're met with a blotchy, uneven mess patches of thinning, discolored turf scattered across the surface like the green itself is suffering from some kind of chronic skin condition, all bald patches and inflamed splotches, as if psoriasis or alopecia had taken hold of the turf. Reading a putt here isn't a matter of skill; it's a matter of luck, because no amount of green-reading ability accounts for a surface this poorly maintained. The driving range fares no better. The mats are worn through, the turf beneath them is patchy and hard, and hitting off of it feels less like practice and more like penance. The equipment doesn't help matters. The push carts are relics, and the motorized carts aren't much of an improvement sluggish, battered, running on batteries that seem perpetually on the verge of dying mid-round. And when I tried to rent one myself with a valid license in hand I was flatly refused because I'm under 18. Fine. Rules exist. But when I asked, reasonably, whether I could rent one under my parent's name instead, the staff didn't just say no they laughed. Openly. In my face. That kind of contempt for a paying customer isn't an oversight; it's a culture. The grounds themselves are no better maintained than the equipment. There's an active construction zone bordering part of the course, and the surrounding area is littered with trash along the sidelines. The lakes on the property sit empty and stagnant, more of an eyesore than a water feature at this point if the course can't be bothered to keep them filled, it says a lot about where their priorities are. I also came across two dead birds during my round, which says something about the general upkeep of the place. There were also several people loitering around the course grounds, which didn't exactly add to the sense that this is a well-managed, well-supervised facility. And then there's the matter of restrooms or the lack thereof. There are no real facilities on this course, just a scattering of porta potties, while the one or two actual restrooms on-site sit locked and inaccessible for the entire round. Between the diseased-looking greens, the derelict range, the neglected grounds, and a staff that treats basic customer questions with open ridicule, Buenaventura isn't just an underwhelming round of golf it's an insult to anyone who pays to walk through the gate. I won't be back. Genuinely, I hope they get their act together fill the lakes, clean up the grounds, and treat their customers with a shred of respect because right now, I'd be surprised if anyone books a tee time there again.

    I've been coming to this store for years and have always had great experiences. The store is clean,…read moreand the customer service is usually excellent. Today, I purchased a wagon and the young lady who helped me was amazing. She brought the item down, answered my questions, and even offered to carry it for me. She was incredibly kind and deserves recognition for her outstanding customer service. One thing I noticed was that while I was carrying the wagon through the store, the only employees who offered help were female team members. I passed two younger male employees who didn't check in, even though I was clearly struggling a bit. I wasn't expecting anyone to carry it for me, but a simple offer to help would have been appreciated. I also want to recognize the older gentleman outside who checked on me while I was loading my car and made sure I was okay. Overall, this is still a great store. My only suggestion is to encourage all employees to check on customers carrying heavy items. Maybe because I wasn't older or looked like I struggled but it was heavy and seeing me struggle a bit - A small gesture can make a big difference.

    I normally don't leave negative reviews, but this experience deserves to be documented, especially…read moreafter the manager told me that writing a review "wouldn't make a difference." I came in to exchange a pair of FootJoy golf shoes I bought here one week ago. I didn't have my receipt on me, so the associate scanned the shoes to look up the "lowest selling price." Their system came back with $19 for shoes I paid $110 for days earlier. When I asked how that number made any sense, no one could explain it. No price history, no verification, no transparency just "that's what the system says." I wasn't asking for anything unreasonable, just a fair exchange based on the actual purchase price. The part that pushed me to write this review was the manager's response. Instead of helping or even acknowledging the issue, he told me that leaving a review "wouldn't make a difference." That's not just dismissive, it's unprofessional. He said he wouldn't even consider making an exception because I had dropped the F-Bomb in reference to their insane store policy and ridiculous lowball valuation. He also demanded that I apologize to the associate for using the F word. For the record, I found my receipt and will be returning the shoes properly. But the principle matters. If their system is generating inaccurate "lowest selling prices," that affects more than just me. I'll be filing formal complaints with the appropriate agencies so this doesn't get brushed aside. I'm sharing this so other customers know what to expect if they try to make an even exchange without a receipt. A $110 purchase shouldn't magically turn into $19 because a system says so and a manager shouldn't act like customer feedback is meaningless.
