I can't give this course less than three stars. If it were up to the condition of course, price, and quality it would be an absolute 5 start course. Yes, you will see many reviews that complain about the pace of play. Yet, it makes sense when given the price. If you are looking for a great course that has some of the best kept greats in ALL of OC then Mile Square is a great option. Just be prepared for an four and a half to five hour round.
Now... let's get to the reason why I have to give this course a three star review. It all comes down to one special individual, Kevin. The man either lives in a world where he's been managing Pebble Beach (in his mind) or is completely delusional. The impression he gives is that HE IS GOLF. How dare you question his authority in HIS DOMAIN. I've compiled some of my favorite Kevin quotes:
- Our cart died in the middle of the fairway. We tried to reset, turn off and on, basically ALL you can do to restart a cart. I call the pro shop and breakdown our issue. Kevin, "our carts don't die" me, "oh... well I'm sorry but we've tried everything we can to get it to work", Kevin "Yeah our carts don't die but I'll send someone out to show you how to use a cart"... ouchy Kevin... Sure enough someone came out and shocker... cart was dead
- I called ahead to inform Kevin we'd arrive right on time. Once we arrived he asked that I go get the other person in my twosome. I said, "could I pay" he said, "no" I said, "why not" he said, "Bc we have a system" I said, "I'm going to get him... then come back... like in 5 minutes you are delaying the inevitable" he said, "no you're delaying it". Now I will say Kevin is not the only one to blame in this interaction. I should have been able to read his mind. That's on me, we went back and forth I tried to use reason and logic but... nothing can sway Kevin. In his domain? No sir... Have heard of a lose lose lose scenario? Kevin seems to live there. Finally he hit me with the following, "We never have any issues with children here only adults" BOOM roasted. He also kept repeating how they'd been doing this for 55 years? As if... that mattered. Ok... that's fair the course has been doing it for a long time. But if you see other reviews the pace of play is bad...mmmmmmmmight be time for a change bud.
Alright, that's it. All that to say it's a great course. But I hope that you now prepared if you come across Kevin. You will lose... then lose... then lose. You will get tired of losing.
