Nice course

I book online at 6:40 but the pro shop opens at 6:30 I didn't have enough time to hit balls on the range, but for half the price to play at this course I guess wasn't that bad The course is in excellent condition , the greens are not totally healed from aeration, but they roll better, fairway are looking beautiful. This time the course beat me one more time lol, but I will come back to play until I beat the course ,so see you next time.

Gorgeous

This is what a golf course should look like. Great time out there. So gorgeous. So well maintained! A lot of good company out there as well! Great place to grab a bite and a beer afterwards.

Disappointed

I got prepaid tee time online , the green were healing from aeration,and a little rain so Cart paths only therefore slow play. Greens won't be good for another 2 weeks if you're like putting on good greens ook somewhere else.

I wish I knew

This is a beautiful layout, and a great golf course. Unfortunately, or fortunately depending upon your thinking they had just sanded the greens a couple of days before I played. I understand maintaining beautiful greens, they need to be sanded and plugged; I just wish I would’ve known before I played. I signed up through GolfNow, and wish that information was available to me.

2 hours of driving time to play the same 9 holes as much as I’d like

Sucks not to be informed that only 9 of the 18 holes were available to play. 5 gallons of gas for a 9 hole course; such a deal.not!!!
