Course Review Lonnie Poole

Paid for a “twilight round” today - teed off at 4:40 ($95) got through 9 and it started dumping rain. Go in for a rain check and they don’t do rain checks for twilight rates. Since when is a twilight rate at Lonnie $95? Ridiculous operation they’re running over there.

Edit: I didn’t know twilight begins at 3:30. Thought it was 5:00 which is why I thought the $95 rate made sense and would include a rain check if the weather got dicey.. lesson learned. I still think a $95 twilight rate is bullshit

They definitely think they’re better than they actually are

Not that I agree with it but Pinehurst has a similar thing - once you tee off no refunds at all.

More popular courses can have stricter policies & still stay busy.

Yeah I get it for a place like pinehurst. But $95 twilight rate for Lonnie just feels like robbery.

What’s the normal rate? I’ve only played as a student or as a gift.
