July 4th weekend and the grille was closed! No option to even buy a bottle of water...The staff said a 3rd party owns the food/bev and had no answers. Last time we play there for sure....not worth the $$
Good conditions, tight layout
The pace of play on a thursday at 2:40 was great, the conditions were overall great, but the greens were a little bit slow. I don't love the layout of the course due to it being really quite tight, and there are many holes which don't allow driver to be hit
Friday afternoon round of golf
It started out cool and windy as the rain had just moved out, but ended up sunny and beautiful. Front 9 we waited a bit for the 4some in front of us, but not bad. They only played 9 holes so back 9 was great.
All great, except the design
1st time playing the course. People in the Pro Shop were super nice, as was the starter. The clubhouse itself was decent as well - looks like it's had recent remodeling. Warm up area was ok, but practice green was good.
My beef is with the course design. There are some truly awful holes from a design perspective for a public course. Examples - #1 (totally blind from tee), #7 (a total mess), #8 (extremely narrow 2nd shot), #18 (if you can't hit a cut off the tee, you're hosed). There are some good holes, but these just ruined it for me.
Mid
Course Layout is too tight. Barely missing the fairway puts you on another hole (risking hitting other golfers). The bunkers are hard as a rock
Improving!
Best condition I’ve seen it in….Greens were GREAT for early season
Hidden Gem
Greens needed a little attention, but weren’t bad or annoying to putt on. Course is in good shape and is a surprisingly creative layout. My only complaint is that the bunkers were concrete, and I don’t mean maybe. I’m talking about zero, not any free grain sand in between the ball and hard pan. As a sand bunker connoisseur, this was highly disappointing, but also, this was seemingly random as some bunkers were average. Overall, the layout and the scenic holes, with the additional benefit of the seasonal scenery, it was a breath of fresh air.
Beautiful course but...
The fairways are laid out so close to each other that we had to stop play several times to let people coming toward us tee off, hit a second shot or hit onto their green. The more impatient players simply hit into us so we had 4 near misses and one direct hit into the cart.
The course is interesting and well cared for. Staff is excellent. Unfortunately we will not be back.
Great track
Course has a great layout and a fantastic practice facility. Green were kept well but did have some minor issues from high traffic. I would definitely play thei course again.
Where am I going?
I’ve never seen a course with such a confusing (and “goofy” layout). It’s one thing to be confused about which way to go on diverging cart paths (which happens often), but there are a few holes where it’s not even clear where the fairway is. I found the layout confusing overall and as a result did not enjoy the course.
Really nice
A nice and challenging course, well maintained and fun to play
