Awful condition

The greens were littered with dead worms sticks and debris. Tee boxes and bunkers were not maintained. The fairways were a disaster ; apparently no one replaces their divots as they were everywhere. We got a hot rate to play, so it was not terribly expensive. Would never pay the normal rate to play there.

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and will return. For a semi new golfer it was challenging and I loved that.

Enjoyed the course

For this time of year it was in pretty good shape. Loved the elevation changes, interesting holes and smooth greens. Pace of play was not very good. Over 5 hours to play. Didn’t care all that much because I had the time to wait. Others behind us weren’t so patient. Much of it to do with 3 threesomes walking in front of us. Overall I really liked this course and would recommend it. Pack your patience

Early season

For early in the season and after a large rain, the course was soggy but in very good condition. Greens rolled true.

Bunkers were horrible, though. Like concrete.

My favorite course in the area, do it’s always great to play there.

Course

We only played 9 holes due the high wind and snow squalls that went through and brought cold temps with it. The first couple holes were good till the wind and snow. No fault of the course. Will return in spring.

Disappointing Conditions

No one told us they had verticut the greens and done it poorly. A lot of sand and deep ruts. Bunkers were wet and stony. Spots around greens overwatered. Several tees moved because of new tee construction. I play with my wife and hate when the grounds team is just too lazy to put the senior and ladies tees in different locations. Ive played here many times and used to love the course. It just looks like they have given up. Might as well build a data center tomorrow. The GPS shut down our cart twice while driving to senior tees. My cart also shut down twice when approaching a roped area but not quite there. If you going to use the system then get your technology to mirror where your ropes are. I don't understand what youre protecting with the condition of the course.

Championship layout

Exceptional layout. Will definitely play again, preferably during peak season for what I would hope to be 5 star course conditions. The layout of this course deserves to be kept in pristine condition.

Get it while you can

The staff said the awful words I was hoping not to hear. Apparently the rumors are true and the course will be sold in 2027 to make room for a frickin' data center. One of, if not the best public course in the area and it's going away. I can overstate how angry this makes me. Go and play as often as you can before it's a memory. Progress sucks sometimes.

Great course! Good price. Green grass. Every course has their areas and tee boxes that got hammered by rain this spring/summer. Fairly standard front 9. Challenging back 9. I usually join groups as a single. Never had anyone be upset. Decent putting green. I'm not a range guy but there is a moving rope grass range.

Challenging course with a great view;

Very well maintained course with several challenging traps. Since it was hot to play in the afternoon, we need more trees for shades.

Won’t Be Back

5 hours and 7 minutes to play a round on a random Saturday in August. I will not be going back. No ranger on the course enforcing pace of play.
