TEE FOR 2

YES IT WAS A WEEKEND MORNING / SATURDAY. WE WERE SENT OFF AS A TWOSOME BEHIND A TERRIBLE FOURSOME, WHICH MADE US WAIT EVERY SINGLE HOLE. EVEN AFTER THE 1ST HOLE WHERE WE TEED OFF WITH THEM ON THE GREEN. AND THEY WERE PLAYING FROM WHITES. COURSE IS NICE. I HAD TWO COURSES TO CHOOSE FROM TO PLAY. IDENTUICAL 33+ MILES TO EACH IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS. CHOOSE THIS ONE. SOME TOUGH PAR 4, LONG PAR 3's and greens were nice

Poor pace of play even for a muni. 3hrs to play the front 9 alone. No Marshall or course attendant to speed up slower players. Greens were very pot marked. Fairways were in good condition.

First Time Playing

Decent track. Good value

I am a 16 handicap and played the course for the first time. Blue tees are relatively long for a 120 slope course. Greens were below average, but not terrible. Slow and neglected by the public. Doesn't appear like any golfers repair their pitch marks. Overall, a decent course and a good value.
