Nice course

Nice course, greens were in great shape. Only complaint is on the back nine there are a few holes that are blind shots and drop off dramatically, so if you don't have anybody that can watch for your shot and you are off even a little, good luck finding your ball

I will definitely be back to play again.

The staff is very friendly also.

Ok course

Ourselves could do with some better directions to tee boxes due to some long trips from one hole to another. Greens were very good. Putting saved my game. Some holes are blind and dangerous when people are hitting up on you. Enjoyed our day out all things considered.

Good Value, but Quirky

The course was in very good shape, but for slow greens... the problem I had is the 2-3 holes that were weird... electric transmission lines... seems forced to fit in 18 holes, and still only a par 68 course. Good value and the groundskeeper does a very good job keeping the fairways and rough in good shape. I only wished the greens were faster.

Nice mountain course

Greens and course were in good shape. Greens were not fast and not too slow. This is such a scenic course. Very friendly pro shop. Course has blind shots. I recommend playing it more than once so you know where to land your shots.

Golf Now

Had no problems whatsoever with the course. Small but fun. My problem was with Golf Now. I booked and pre-paid for a 9:40 tee time. I arrive and find out that Golf Now booked me for a time that was unavailable and my new tee time was 10:40. Fortunately the pro shop worked with me and I had a great time. I no longer trust Golf Now.

The course was a great layout and pace was fine as we played in 3 hours and 40 minutes. My only complaint is that the greens are incredibly SLOW which I don’t like at all. The staff was super friendly

Incompetent Staff

I played there on Monday. Called back on Tuesday and got a 1:30 tee time for Saturday for nine holes. When I arrived at the course on Saturday at 1:15, I was told that I didn't have a tee time. He offered to put me with a twosome at 2:00. I couldn't do two o'clock due to a prior commitment at 4:30. Not sure what kind of incompetent staff members work there but it was pretty frustrating to show up and get told I didn't have a tee time.
