Impact of People

This was my first time at this course, and would love to come back. Layout was fun, and the pace of play made it a great day of golf.

I gave 3 stars to 'Staff Friendliness', and feel it is worth explaining. When checking in the staff in the clubhouse were exceptionally grumpy. Not only rude to me, but when I had another question to ask before I started out, say them be rude to several others. BUT, Larry (Player Assistance) who met us on the first tee was exceptional in every way. He was fun, having fun, and making sure we were going to start the round on a good note.

It was a true tale of two people, but I want Larry to get his due. If it was not for him, I could honestly cross this course off and be fine not returning, but he gave me a reason to want to play there again.

Rolling hills; very tight

Great course with rolling hills and blind shots. Lots of dog legs and very small greens. Driving range and nice area to chip and putt also. First hole is very challenging with out of bounds on both sides. Hard course to walk but if you can walk it you will burn a load of calories. Greens are very true. My only complaint is that this course was $40 to walk and $50 to ride 18 holes. $35 to walk would be more reasonable.

Pros: water on the course, ball washers on the course.

Need rangers going around the course

Need rangers going around the course to speed up play. Front 9 was fine. Back 9 was pretty bad as a result of two really slow foursomes.

Golf

Course was great but purchasing 18 holes from golf now sucked it was late in the day and they only let us play 9 after 2:00 so I don’t know how you could sell us a round of 18 holes for four people. Will never use golf now and on top of it I had to pay your convenience fee if 13.96.

Brutal.

I played this course at around 8am with a buddy of mine. The first 9 the greens/rough were still not cut down. Not only that but the course was in such bad condition we almost had to lift clean and place every shot, even though it hadn't rained. The greens have 0 consistency and sound like concrete when you hit them. They aren't quick greens, they are concrete and poor quality. Did not enjoy my round at all.

It was good, but not my type of course

The course itself was good, the greens were good, loved the layout, staff was nice. It’s just not my type of course, I only played the front nine and am not a fan of hearing cars pass by every 5 seconds. Everything else was fine, I’m just picky. The best hole was number 3 which is a slight dog leg right par 4 that then has a water hazard in front of the green, beautifully design. Overall good course, but just not the type of course for me.

Fairways and Greens not Cut

I have played here many times in the past. The grass is fine but needs to be cut. There has been enough rain and there is not much danger of burning the grass. Also, price is much higher compared to other city owned courses like Lost Nations which are in much better shape. However, this course is in better shape than another of our past favorite -- Gleneagles.
