Just a outstanding course.... well worth the drive. Photo submitted by DKN08 on 07/11/2016
Pace of play issues
First 9 holes were great, 3 ball finished an an hour and ten minutes. Took the turn, 30 minute wait for the tee box on 10. It took us 2.5 hours to get to Hole 14. We ended up calling it and left the course. There was a 4 ball on hole 17 (18 was wide open) holding up 2, groups of 4 and on 16 there was a 4 ball waiting to tee off. Needless to say, there absolutely needs to be a ranger or stop staggering tre times 5 minutes apart.
Emerald
Enjoyed the course. Good condition, despite being in a drought. A fair number of short distance part fours, but makes up for it with highly sloped and fast greens.
Great local courae
Always in great shape from tee to green. Staff is awesome as well
First time and really liked it
Staff was super and the course was in excellent shape.
Will definitely be back.
Beware of Slow Play
The course is in excellent condition. The course has a reputation for slow play although this was not the case yesterday and we finished our round in 3.5 hours. Previous two visits those rounds were both 5+ hours Due to 5 people being let out in a group.
Go play this course!!!
I recently moved to the state and live about an hour away from this course. Since I was curious about it, I decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly staff at the pro shop and the young lady working at the snack shop.
I usually play from the blue stakes, but I was paired with an older gentleman who was playing from the whites. I thought, “Why not?” and played from the whites, which turned out to be a great decision. It made for a fun and enjoyable round of golf.
I was glad to have Jim as my partner. He was knowledgeable about the course layout and could advise me on where to aim to avoid water hazards on certain holes. For example, on hole nine, I didn’t know that water would be all the way across in front of the green. Jim suggested that I switch to a different club to land short of the water.
I HIGHLY recommend this course if you’re in the area or live an hour away like I do. I plan to play it again with Jim in the near future, as well as some other courses he recommended.
Nice course
This is a very nice course. Not long and not much trouble to get into. Greens and fairways were in great shape. I found myself putting from around the greens instead of chipping due to very tight lies.Greens were fairly fast but not outrageously so. I would certainly play this course again.
