Colonial Charters Golf Club

The review record is the weakest in this batch and needs stating without softening. Across 122 reviews the average is 3.35. Thirty are five star and 26 are four star, so fewer than half of all reviewers rated the round well. Thirty-five sit at three stars, with 19 two-star and 12 one-star ratings behind them. The written complaints are strikingly consistent. Bare spots in the fairways come up in review after review, described variously as bare compacted soil throughout, many rough patches, and multiple bare areas. Hard bunkers are the second recurring theme. One reviewer called it a disappointing end to an otherwise satisfying stay, which captures the tone of the middling ratings better than any star average.

There is a positive side and it is worth reporting accurately. Staff earns real praise, both in the pro shop and in booking, with one reviewer naming a staff member who made their whole trip easy. Reviewers returning after a long gap liked the newer layout. Some rounds land on good conditions, with reports of very nice course and good condition and at least one golfer posting their lowest score of the week here. Practice facilities include a driving range, putting green and chipping green, though one reviewer noted the range being unavailable during their visit. Price is the honest selling point: nobody claims it is expensive, and the complaints are about turf rather than value.
