It’s unfortunate to hear about you experience at our club. We just had an extreme wind storm that came through the night before you played. This storm had damaging winds which caused trees/limbs to fall down along with debris all over the course. We are in the process of getting the course cleaned up and back to the shape it was in.

Hot deal was worth it, but at regular rate?

Went out with my son to play who hasn’t played in a few years. Took advantage of a hot deal at $24 each. At that rate I was pretty happy. Had I paid regular of $62 I would have been very disappointed. Greens were rough. Course was in decent shape except the greens and cart paths.

Bad experience - 1st time playing

Booked an 8:30am tee time for 2 players for what I thought was a decent rate for this level of course. Arrived at the course to find the parking lot full and a tournament was about to start. Staff in pro shop said the tournament was starting at 9am… He suggested it wouldn’t affect our round or slow us up and to pick any cart out back ready and pointed to hole 1. By hole 2 already waiting for 3 foursomes of seniors who had also started Approx. 8am-8:15am. Fairways, greens and sand traps were in good conditions a pleasant surprise. After finishing front nine, hole 10 had a foursome waiting on the tee box, the fairway and on the green. We decided to only play 9 with a round of 18 holes projected to take 5hrs. Would’ve liked to known ahead of booking about a tournament being held.
