Horrible Ownership

Been playing here almost 20 years. Staff is as rude as you will get anywhere and owners do not care at all about the customer. I have never seen a golf course with such horrible employees. Also I never had a problem making a 5pm tee time but now they don't even allow it. And when you make a tee time at 4:30 and they tell you in a rude manner that you must have the carts in by 7:30pm even though right now it doesn't get dark until almost 9pm. I know, it's very expensive to pay that extra $8/hr. to the person who puts the carts away. This is such a great local course and the locals used to love it but not anymore. They provide nothing as far as tournaments, specials, and provide no food at all as the restaurant and car area close by 5pm. Such a waste.

Needs work

I understand that the current superintendent is finally leaving Hopefully all started projects get completed. We hardly ever see him working, He usually just drives around and is either on the phone or watching the Mexican work. The cart paths still are in bad shape. They did repair some of the bunkers and added sand to some. The cut a lot of of trees down but left all the stumps up. Hopefully things change soon

Pace of play

The pace of play is very slow especially when you start the back nine, this course is too much for super senior golfers, but for some reason they come to play and Hold up the whole course, the course is in great shape, nice fast greens, fairways beautiful, unfortunately the golfers this course draws don’t fix ball marks.

Hard to beat

I have played this course many times, and beleive it is one of the toughest coursesvaround..Greens nice but deceivingly quick, and very tricky. You will NOT figure them out no matter how many times you play. Fairways are decent as are the tees. One issues is the safety on #2 with the cartpath after you hit your 2nd shot..Very nasty incline that is slippery/dangerous, so you have to drive the cart around local road to halfway down #3 when it is wet as YOU CAN NOT NEGOTIATE THIS CARTPATH unless it is dry, and that is hard too. Anyway, if you are a seasoned golfer and want a challenge, THIS IS THE COURSE FOR YOU! Hacks stay away as you may lose all you balls by hole 6.

Great layout

Unfortunately, some conditions need to be addressed Several tees were in very bad shape Cart path on two continues to be literally dangerous. For such a classic course there should be more attention to detail

Finally got out and tried my new ping 425 max

Got out right away. Only a few singles playing. Still soggy from IDA remnants but ground crew working hard to get course back in condition.

Fairways in good condition. Tees need work.

All things considered especially the price a good value.

Not a lot of water or traps but the greens are this course’s defense. Ball ovens run off if speed is not carefully applied while putting and on approach shoots.

Needs work

Fairways dry and bare at places while other areas were soaking wet. Green closed on 12. Rough is high making locating your ball difficult to impossible.
