Great course for the price

Very error friendly course. Wide open for the big hitters. Great course for the money. One of my favorites. Play there multiple times per year.

Some greens are messed up (mowers) and sand traps are poor (you might save a lot of money by letting the sand traps become green traps and just mow them. Everything else was good.

Elks

The course does not play long. We played from the blue tees and it’s about what you would get plain white tees at longer golf courses. It’s a simple layout, but a challenge with water trees and will place bunkers. It will give you a good round of golf, and test you if you venture off the fairways.

Issues

I paid the entire greens fee online via GolfNow and they tried to charge me an additional $11.00. Unacceptable. Good thing I had access to my email receipt.

Awefull

Course is in very very bad shape. Fairways are mud pits and have tank tracks everywhere. Greens have crabgrass and bare spots all over them. Bunkers are not even bunkers any more. I've been playing this course for years. Never seen it this bad!!!! Looks like the maintenance staff took a permanent vacation. Cant wait till Majestic Springs opens. It's a little more money but at least you feel like your on a golf course and not a wasteland. Stay away. I am.

First Time Playing

Greens are the worst I’ve played

They course is so badly maintained that you will find basically holes in the greens. The greens have so many bumps and chunks taken out not to mention the dead areas on them. I wouldn’t recommend coming here if your expecting to be playing on a good surface. I love the island green hole tho
