I've played Coronado 20 or 30 times and usually have an okay experience. The location and cheap rates, typically make up for the slow play. But today, I played at Coronado and had the worst golf experience of my life. I showed up 30 minutes before my tee time and teed off at 3:05pm. There was some type of tournament with young kids going on, so I asked if we could tee off the back nine. The starter told me yes, then no, and well, I could of if I asked 10 minutes ago. I was already checked in, why didn't someone let me know, since this was obviously going to be a problem? \r

After an hour I had only played 2 holes, because of the tournament in front of me. I was very frustrated and decided to call it a day, as I was only going to get in a total of 4 or 5 holes before it got dark. I went in the pro shop to explain the situation and asked for a rain check. They said that they don't give rain checks and that it was a typical pace. Really?!? Because I've played Coronado 20 or 30 times and the pace is normally slow, as many other reviewers have noted, but never anything like this. I couldn't even believe the guy working was trying to tell me that this was somehow reasonable. Then, he told me that they have lots of tournaments and I could check the schedule online before I make tee times in the future. Again, somehow this is my fault? Maybe they should have told me that there would be a tournament in front of me and it might be slow, when I called to make my tee time. \r

Needless to say, I won't be coming back here for a long time. It may be the best bargain in town, but If it's too much of a problem for you to give customer service at that rate, then I would rather go pay more to play somewhere that values their customers. This is one of the worst examples of customer service I have ever seen. \r
Pros: location, price
Cons: slow play, poor customer service
