Front 9

I was only able to play the front 9. Being from Fla was surprised at how steep the fairways were. But the overall condition of the course was very well maintained and I throughly enjoyed myself. At my age there is no way I would walk this course. Look forward to going back and getting in the full 18.

Great greens

Greens great, rest of course is in poor shape because of lack of daily maintenance needed to maintain a golf course.

Not Bad for the price

Very scenic! Front nine was not in as good is shape as the back nine. A lot of sloped fairways, turning good shots into the middle of fairways into bad results. Greens in good shape but very slow. I would request to play the back 9 twice next time

Good Course but missed some details

For the money on a weekend, good value. Layout is good but it has it points and its tight with slopes everywhere. Public golf courses should have ball washers on a few holes and not having ANY water on the course is ahuge miss to me. Tees and fairways are solid but the greens were good and rolled nice. Would go back but bring a cooler of water.

Great course for the price.

Except for slow pace from the 6 young guys playing ahead of us (they finally let us play through), the round was excellent. The greens were in great shape. Some holes are very challenging. The front 9 is very hilly with a lot of blind shots. The back 9 is much flatter. It was like playing 2 different courses. Great course for the price.

Great priced round but need to blow off greens

Sines spots were rough and not much grass but most of the fairways were nicer, greens were covered in twigs and leaves. Overall good for $20

Thank you for the review.

I am guesing that you played after 3:00 PM by the rate you paid but rest assured the greens are either mowed or blown off daily depending on conditions. The day you played the winds blew 15-18 MPH with gusts to 25 which explains the debris on the greens.

Please come back and see us again and I'm sure you will see a better product. Bill

Garbage

My friend and I travel to play golf away from our town very often. On 4/2/2023 we traveled 2.5 hours to play here only to find out when we got there the greens had just been punched and sanded. A warning of this would have been very nice since we travel so far to play we generally like to play a decent course with nice views and such. The layout of the course was not the best I’ve ever played. The front nine layout is not really fun at all. The back nine was better however. We generally plan on expecting a hilly course when we travel to the mountains and that is the case with this course. However the hills are sloped so bad that a beautiful shot down the middle of the fairway would wind up missing the fairway. The greens were so sandy that putting was virtually impossible. We understand that this process has to be done this time of the year but a warning would have been nice so we could have traveled to this course after the green conditions improved. Also when we travel to these courses we collect logo balls for our display cases only to find this course didn’t have any. The pace of play was the only positive in this case (probably due to the fact the locals knew it had just been aerated). So take away the fact the greens had just been punched I still wouldn’t recommend this course if you plan on traveling a great distance to play due to the layout and course amenities. There are no ball washers, no grass on the tees, unlevel tee boxes and no warning of aeration.

Stayed nearby for a family get together. Had never been to the area before. Course was awesome. It was in pretty solid condition and it wasn’t busy either. Views on the course were absolutely incredible.

nice layout

Vacationing in the area and found this course on Golf Now. Made reservation at 9:00am for 11:45AM same day. No problems at all (GPS took me to the wrong place:) Check in was uneventful.

Started on the back nine - no big deal. Nice layout. Tricky greens (back straight and soft/front hard, fast, sloping)

Several blind shots made it slow due to the mixed 3-some ahead of me (caught them on the 5th hole, followed the rest of the round.)

Course was in decent shape (it is, after all, October).

I plan to go back.
