Good value, fairly easy, pretty short course

The course is pretty short, so I'd play the blues - they're more like white tees at most courses, and even then a little short. There are a couple par 5s that are really just long par 4s that need a solid tee shot. Layout is so-so, some holes it's decent, some holes are pretty straight and not much going on. Greens are slow, but they are green, so for this price range I consider that a win. Course was pretty wet, and we've gotten rain here and there recently, but seems like it should have drained a little bit more. We did play the 18 of course, not the 9 hole learning course just to make sure there's no confusion. But overall good value with this course. A little short but at least it's green and for $32 and (for us) not a real long drive, it's a good course to go get some swings in a have some fun. Definitely not going to be my go-to every week, but here and there it's good and also good for playing with friends just getting into the game.

Don’t expect much!

Great coarse if you pay less than $25. Not worth more.

Course was in great shape. Some tee boxes were a little sketchy but pretty good. Fairways looked great. Greens were in good shape but they need to be cut. I know we've had a lot of rain lately and that could be the reason they were a little high. All in all, great course for the money paid

Good for the price

This is a great course especially for beginners. Par 71 and a pretty simple course with a mix of dogleg lefts and rights and straight shots. Greens are in good shape but this is not a 5 star course by any means. If your looking for a place to play and learn and have a good time this is it. I played with 1 person and it took us 2:45 minutes and we were not rushing. during covid though so no one in front of us.

Value King

Great course for the money, so many options with all the extra things there. Pitching greens, putting greens, driving range and two courses!
