Little things can make a big difference!

Repairing your ball mark helps keep our greens healthy and smooth for everyone. Simply use a ball mark repair tool—or even a tee—to gently pull the edges of the mark back toward the center, then lightly tap it down with your putter or your foot. This helps the turf recover more quickly and reduces damage.

Teasel (Dipsacus)

Another beautiful plant with an invasive history!

Our industrious forefathers discovered that the stiff, egg-shaped flower heads of teasel made excellent wool cards—tools used to clean and raise the nap on wool. The Skaneateles area imported Teasel to grow for this very reason!

You may notice teasel growing around Parkview right now. At this time of year, the flower heads often have a hint of purple. Later in the season, the dried stalks and seed heads remain standing, adding interesting texture to the landscape throughout the fall and winter.

Despite its beauty, teasel is considered an invasive species. Its large leaves shade out native plants, making it difficult for them to thrive. Teasel also has a fascinating trick: the bases of its leaves form little cups that collect rainwater. These pools can slow down crawling insects like aphids, and researchers believe the plant may even benefit from nutrients released by insects that become trapped there.

Like the multiflora rose we featured a few weeks ago, teasel is a beautiful and interesting plant—but one that can be surprisingly invasive in our area. Nature is full of fascinating stories, and sometimes the prettiest plants come with the biggest challenges!

"WTF Parkview! More dirt and straw?! Why do I have to drive around ropes and stakes just to get to my ball?" How annoying!

Yes, we completely agree. It is definitely frustrating to navigate under-construction areas on the course. But we promise the long-term improvements will be worth it for everyone's playing experience!

We don't have a ton of strict cart rules here—but if you see roped-off areas or spots covered in straw (a big clue we are trying to grow grass!), please stay off.

What We Are Working On:
Our main focus right now is restoring our cart path areas. Over the years, some paths have slowly widened past their original boundaries. We are actively reshaping them and pulling them back to where they belong.

The Latest Project:
We are currently pulling back the cart path near the 1st tee. This specific spot has suffered from years of washouts, and the extra wide path isn't really needed anymore.

Thank you so much for your patience, humor, and cooperation while we let the new seed take root!

Saturday's course conditions:

Wakeboarding: 10/10
Golf: Maybe not so much.

After this weekend's rain, the wakeboarders headed out to the prime conditions... on our fairways. Best wakeboarding this side of the Mississippi!

Don't worry—the river is gone, the course has dried out, and we're be back to golf instead of water sports! Thanks for everyone's patience after Mother Nature gave Parkview a little more water than we ordered.

What do you do when someone hits into your group?

Picture this...

You're lining up that 12-foot birdie putt when suddenly a golf ball comes rolling onto the fringe behind you. It's the shot of a lifetime for the group behind... and definitely not the timing of a lifetime for your group!

Your first reaction probably isn't, "Nice shot!" It's more likely something... a little less printable.

The truth is, golf is a funny game. Sometimes we chunk one 40 yards. Sometimes we absolutely flush one. And every once in a while, we hit a shot that we were certain couldn't reach the group ahead... until it catches a firm fairway, a downslope, or gets an unexpected kick and suddenly rolls onto the green.

Does it happen? Yes.
Should it happen often? No.
Was it probably intentional? Almost certainly not.

A little grace goes a long way. A sincere wave or apology from the group behind, and a little understanding from the group ahead, can keep everyone's round enjoyable.

At Parkview, we're fortunate to have some of the best golfers around—not necessarily because they all shoot under par, but because they're good people who treat each other with respect.

If a situation ever becomes more than an honest mistake, please flag down the ranger or give the clubhouse a call. We're always happy to help get things back on track.

Now... if you'll excuse us, we have ruled that this one gets a free pass.

Play well. Play safe. And remember—everyone has been "that group" at least once.

Golf carts sure are fun... but they can also be dangerous.

A friendly reminder that golf carts are real vehicles—not amusement park rides—and they definitely don't come with bumpers to keep you out of a rough spot!

A sharp turn on a hill, driving too fast over uneven ground, or hitting a rut can cause a cart to change direction unexpectedly or even tip onto its side.

Although a roughed up cart requires more work for us, we are always thankful when no one gets hurt. This photo is a good reminder that it doesn't take much for an enjoyable round to turn into a bad day.

Take it easy out on the course. Enjoy the sunshine, the fresh air, and hopefully your golf game. Slow down on hills, avoid sharp turns, and always keep all four wheels on the ground.

Play safe. Have fun. We'll see you on the course!

Why don't you let my young children drive the golf carts?

We know many of the young golfers who play at Parkview are talented and passionate about the game. Who knows... maybe the next Haeran Ryu, Nelly Korda, or Scottie Scheffler is out on our course today!

But being a great golfer isn't the same as being ready to drive a golf cart.

For that reason, we ask that only golfers with a valid driver's license operate our golf carts.

Our number one reason is simple: safety. Requiring a driver's license gives us a reasonable standard to help protect everyone on the course.

Here are just a few situations we've seen—or hope to never see:

* A young driver can slide off the seat and accidentally press the accelerator.
* A driver can mistakenly put the cart in forward instead of reverse.
* Quick turns, hills, wet grass, bridges, and uneven terrain can all make a golf cart more challenging to operate than many people realize.
* And with plenty of sand bunkers, ponds, and other hazards around the course... we'd really prefer our carts stay on the fairways and paths!

The photo with this post is a reminder that even licensed drivers occasionally find themselves in some interesting situations! Golf carts deserve the same care and attention as any other vehicle.

We appreciate your help in following this policy. It's in place to protect your children, your family, other golfers, our staff, and our equipment.

Thank you for helping us keep Parkview a fun—and safe—place for everyone to enjoy.

What's with the new hours at Parkview?

If you've noticed that our last cart tee times are earlier this year, you're not alone!

For many years, we allowed golfers with carts to play until dark. It wasn't unusual for the last carts to arrive back at the cart barn after 9:00 p.m. While we were happy to offer that flexibility, it also meant very long days for our staff and often left carts being returned in low-light conditions.

This season, we've made a change.

Our last 18-hole tee times with carts are now around 4:00 p.m., and our last 9-hole tee times with carts are around 6:00 p.m. This gives golfers plenty of time to enjoy their round while allowing our staff to have the carts cleaned, charged, and safely put away before dark.

If you enjoy an evening round, don't worry! Walking golfers are still welcome to head out after 6:00 p.m. The change only applies to golfers using carts.

We know this adjustment has been disappointing for some of our regular players and members, and we truly appreciate your understanding. Every day, our staff is up early preparing the course and clubhouse so you can have the best experience possible. Setting reasonable closing times helps us maintain that level of service while also keeping both our customers and employees safe.

Thank you for your patience, your support, and for being part of the Parkview family. We look forward to seeing you on the course!

Starting on Hole #10... Why we often can't say "YES"

One of the most common questions we hear is:

"I'm only playing 9 holes. Why can't I just start on #10?"

It's a great question!

Many golfers enjoy playing the back nine, especially those who regularly play only 9 holes and have played the front many times. Whenever space allows, we're happy to send 9-hole guests off #10.

The challenge comes on busy days when many groups are playing 18 holes. Those golfers naturally make the turn from #9 to #10, and they have priority to continue their round without interruption. When 9-hole groups are added into that flow, it can create delays and frustration for everyone.

Another idea we sometimes hear is:

"The first tee has a couple of groups waiting. I'll just start on #10 and come back to #1 when I finish."

It sounds like a good plan—especially if the 10th tee happens to be open. But here's the problem: while the back nine may be available now, there's no guarantee there will be room on #1 when you finish 18. Tee times always take priority, and on many days there simply isn't an opening to fit another group onto the front nine. That can leave golfers waiting or unable to complete their round as planned.

For that reason, we ask all golfers not to begin their round on Hole #10 without checking with the clubhouse or course ranger first. And, to please respect the answer you receive.

We appreciate everyone's understanding and cooperation. A little planning helps keep play moving smoothly and makes for a better experience for everyone on the course.
