Solid track. Good layout.
Course has a good layout. Greens were mostly in good shape, receptive and good speed. A few tee boxes were basically sand but the course was in good shape otherwise. Enjoyed the round.
Nice layout and greens
Great layout - challenging narrow holes, some good elevation changes and a variety of holes. The greens were 80% great, but some really bad spots on several greens. Tee boxes were terrible. 3/4 were just a dirt patch...NO grass. fairways were decent, but no rough, just dirt. Needs some maintenance all around. Little expensive for conditions. Would try it again if they do some course maintenance.
Not easy as think
member of course very good value for the money, course plays longer then yardage as majority of holes are all on plateau so hitting up to the green, and few which not elevated sand traps guard them, the front nine small greens so have be accurate , black nine green bigger , course improving as seem like management spending lot money on course, does have great layout, just think cannot under estimate course, or it get you.
Decent
Cool and unique layout but the conditions don’t support the price. Greens on the back are very different that the front.
Tons of rocks in the bunkers so watch out for that. Tons of gravel on the sides of the course if you miss the tight fairways.
Tough green contours and tough pin locations on ridges. Green speeds differ greatly between holes. Some tee boxes are all dirt, and some are not flat or close to level. Fun play that requires shot shaping and course management. But overall it’s not worth the price tag. It should be in the $40-$45 range. Once in the $60-$70 range, the other course choices are far superior in terms of condition.
Great Course
Awesome atmosphere and staff.
Great course design!
Beautiful conditions for a difficult course
Played here a few times and stopped, now I remember why. While it is a great course, it’s quite humbling as well. The fairways (not all but many) are tight with little room for errant shots. Then, when you get to the greens (which were impeccable), the pin placement and undulations are so tough. A few of the tee boxes could use a refresh (some didn’t even have any grass). I’ll probably wait quite a while before I book another tee time here. Or maybe if my game improves significantly. Our group shot, 93, 96 and 99 where we all are usually low to mid 80s.
Beautiful Day of Golf
We had 4 groups go out, the staff was great and engaging. For me it was the first time playing this course in a year.
The course could use some loving care but with all the rain in the area that may have been difficult.
We went into the clubhouse after our round and had a great time. Staff was attentive and provided great service.
We will be back!
The course was beautiful and well groomed. The cart paths are in need of repair.
Excellent experience
What an absolute joy to play!
As our first experience with this course, I have to say, I could not be more impressed! From the cart amenities to the staff, to the course layout and condition, what a great folding day! I will absolutely be coming back time and time again!
