Poor greens

Terrible greens the worst I have ever seen there.

The rest of the course was good.

Course is challenging for me as an average senior aged golfer. But I enjoy the variety of the hole layouts.

ok

My partner and I played from the yellow/senior tees which made the course ridiculously short. Greens were difficult with substantial grain effect. Putted off the green more than once. Too many three-putts! Tees were ok, some very bad though-all dirt.

Nice fresh grilled burger and a beer served outdoors by pleasant people.

Rough day

It’s been a bit since we’ve had rain, I’ll give them that. Course is hard as a rock. For 2 holes I played into some kid hosing down the greens, my tee time was 11:52. Blows my mind why they’d boil their greens on the hottest day we’ve had this year, also why I’m playing into him on the greens..... tee boxes were chewed, so goodluck with that. Also, the tees they set up, I played outside of a few times because who wants to tee off on an OBVIOUS uneven lie. I’m local, and I enjoy playing this course, but I can tell it’s going downhill quick. I doubt I’ll be back this year. Maybe just to challenge my own play, but the conditions were rough, imho.

Not as good as I hoped

This course has been written up several times lately as a hidden gem. Sorry, but I beg to differ. From the indifferent guy in the pro shop to the (several) chewed-up tee boxes to the really odd earthworks around some of the greens, I couldn't say it was one of the great golf experiences of my life. Don't get me wrong; it was OK, but nothing special. I was just a bit disappointed because of all the hype.

Great architecture

Awesome mix of holes, better conditions than in years past (a couple of bare tee boxes).

Tougher Than It Looks

Tough course for someone of my skill level. It's early in the season, so the course wasn't in great shape. Lots of bare patches on the tee boxes and fairways. Greens were in good shape, deceptively slick unless you play them that way. Overall it's a good layout and a nice course. Hopefully later in the season they'll have the snack shack open after hole 10 since the course doesn't turn around at the clubhouse. Best to bring some snacks with you or grab something at the start of the round to be safe.
