Amazing course and staff!

We played here for the first time, and we will definitely be coming back! The staff was very friendly and welcoming which we really appreciated. The course is well maintained with manicured fairways and smooth fast greens. We enjoyed the layout as well. Water, trees, bunkers, and elevation changes keep you focused on shot placement the entire round.

Always a Pleasure

I always enjoy this course. There were really good deals on GolfPass so of course I jumped on it. It's been very cold in the area so I expected that possibly some of the grass would be in winter shape. Boy was I wrong.

It amazes me how well kept this course is on a consistent basis. Very happy and will be back again soon as always.

Good conditions

Greens- super

Fairways- lush

Tee boxes- well

Pace of play, ouch!

Overall this was a great track to play, felt like the tale of two 9’s… front was straight with minimal danger. Back 9 was up and down, blind shots, shot making angles and played harder….

First Time Playing

Great track, brutal greens

Played it for the first time on Sunday. Only downside to the layout is there are several holes that feel kind of dumb just some shots that don’t really require much more than a five iron to a pitching wedge to the green.

Can’t ask for more interesting challenging greens though. They were in pretty good shape, recovering from being punched, but I’m not gonna hold that against them. They rolled true. They were fast. They had a ton of topography.

Fairway was in pretty good shape. The rough was very rough with all the rain we’ve had. It was very punishing… Just don’t go there right?

Only downside was the pace of play, but it was a Sunday afternoon… So again not going to really hold it against them.

Great course and value

Course was the best value for 18 I have found in the area. I paid $35 for 18 when I played. The course was beautiful and well kept. The bar and clubhouse are spectacular and the food was really good.

Course is well maintained

Fairways and roughs in good condition. Sand traps best in the area. Greens were recovering from aeration but rolled true, moderate speed, held the approach shot fairly well. Always a pleasure playing this course because it is well maintained.

Poor greens

Greens had been aerated and were awful. There were 1’ x 2’ divots- as many as a dozen on one green- cut into the greens. You have to cross a busy road to get to #1, something the pro shop didn’t bother to mention.
