I Recommend This Course
Nice place .. Needs a ranger
Golf course was good , greens were good . Staff was nice … Pace of play wasn’t good , got stuck behind 2 foursomes , that obviously aren’t friends of golf … Didn’t let me play through and killed my enjoyment … need to have someone that knows what they are doing to make it fun for everyone, at $64 bucks I wouldn’t do it but I had a hot deal and coupon so 30 bucks definitely worth it

Definitely look forward to playing again
Easily top two public courses in the area. The greens are in very good condition for this time of year, even the bunkers are in good shape and it’s actually like playing out of a real sand trap unlike any of the other courses this time of year. The cost was the best part and it’s easily the best deal in town. Pace of play is the one down fall.

Very nice course
Very nice round. Could have played faster if the two groups in front of us would have moved faster. We weren't in a hurry but it gets old having to wait on every hole. A marshall would have been a big help. Suggest signage or information on the score card about which tees to use based on your handicap.

Vacation Round
Overall my experience at this course was very enjoyable. This is not my first time playing the course and although they had temp tee boxes on all par 3's, the course was in good shape. The greens were slow but well maintained. Fairways not considered "tight" but not wide-open either. Pace of play was excellent. Will definitely play this course again when in the area.
