We had our reception at Allenmore and it could not have been more perfect. Kaylee and her team took amazing care of us through the entire process, and on the day of took care of our every need before we even asked. It was such a stress free and fun experience. I would recommend it a million times over.

Staff diesnt answer phone,staff doesnt enforce parking rules, staff doesnt do anything but take your money and then dissappear when it comes to providing service...unless you are buying something, then they are readily available to take your money. The administration and management is irresponsible and flakey across the breadth of the organization. Might be time to have the organization reviewed by the proper authorities to make sure this public service isn't getting money from our taxes and then failing to do their jobs. They cant even do the simple things like answer the phone...and their mailboxes are always full so clearly theyve just checked out.I wonder how much these people are getting paid to be absent?

Whether you're sitting inside or on the terrace, the vibe is delightful at this restaurant/bar. The ambiance enhances the whole eating experience. Urban Elk Restaurant and Bar is an absolute hidden treasure. Overall, eating at this restaurant was a pleasure from beginning to end. The wonderful cuisine, amazing service by Tiffany and attractive view of the golf course created a memorable experience.

I've been a golf course superintendent for nearly 20 years and this is, by far in my 10 top best municipal courses I've ever played. Greens roll true and are pretty quick in the afternoon. Great views, staff, and playability. I'll be back

Greens were absolute crap but the price was right and my higher handicap friends had a good time.

This course used to be so much fun to play. The greens are still pretty good. Entire course has been waterlogged for 2 years +… if you are not in the fairway be prepared to take a bunch of drops. Unless you’re going to pay folks to stand out and mark balls you need to trim the friggin rough! Staff is nice as well as restaurant, unfortunately the reason people are here is for the course. I used to be an Elks club member here too.
