Lots of fun blind shots, very open and great greens

This course was super open which was nice to as someone who can spray the ball all over from the tee box. It also had a lot of blind shots which were fun and challenging. The pace of play was okay until the 15th whole which was super challenging and where we had to wait 30 mins just to tee off and had a pile of 3 different groups waiting to hit at one point. Aside from that, great course and value. Would definitely recommend.

Will come back

Have to come back and play this course again. It’s not hard but if you’re not hitting it straight you can be on the fairway next to yours. If that does happen play it safe. Back 9 can be tight.

Great Course, Especially for the Price

This is a "municipal" course, so to speak, so the amenities were nice, but not spectacular. We found the course very nice and fun to play. the grounds were great, the greens were great. The greens could be a challenge at times given the elevations and placement, but overall they were far above average. We had a great time and will definitely come back. The price/performance was Top 10 for us.

Overall rating, for the price, is EXCELLENT

Half normal course half billy goat hill

Poor pace of play. Mostly fit the time you have to wait for the two groups playing the same hole and every hole you need to drive up ahead to see over the hill and blind spot to see if you can hit. Then drive back to your ball to hit it. Waste of time. Greens are nice but way too difficult for the average public golfer. Fine if you have pros and amateurs there all the time. .

4/5 stars

Course isn’t for beginners, a lot of the fairways you have to hit the ball a decent distance. My biggest knock for the course are two things no driving range to practice and some of the holes are too close to each other. For example if you slice too far left or too far right it will go into another field of play, my friend and I played on a Monday had heard “four” at least 4-5 times, I could only imagine how bad it would be on a busy Saturday

Rude

Sadly I do not recommend this course if you are a minority. They yell at us and said they did not need people like us. So, don’t go there. They are fine if people like us don’t go there. So, just don’t there and let them be.

Worth the hour drive for me

Played October 2024. I’m really glad I went and am adding to the course rotation. When I first pulled up and saw the first there holes it looked plain, but the course is anything but plain. There are some really inventive holes, some shorter doglegs and some excellent elevation changes. If you put the ball in the right places you can really attack the course. Greens are in great shape, and are challenging. If you are on the wrong side of the hole it can be treacherous.

Bunkers don’t have the best sand, but are definitely playable. Layout on this course is amazing. If it’s your first time, have a gps app because you need to know where to lay up to on some of the trickier par 4s. Overall the course is in great shape. Staff very friendly and I teed off at 2:30 and wasn’t sure I’d finish. Pace of play was really good for a Saturday afternoon, finished in plenty of time before dark (Sunset was around 6:50). Bonus: the restaurant attached to the clubhouse is a nice relaxed place to eat after your round. Very friendly and the fried chicken sandwich was very good.

I live an hour away so I’m not going here wvery week but I plan on playing at least a couple of times per year. It’s hard to book as single but when I saw an open spot I grabbed it and was glad I did.
