Friday Afternoon

First time playing here since they opened to the public. The course was in great shape, even with a few of the greens being recently plugged and sanded. Booked through GolfNow and had zero issues. The guy running the pro shop, Will, was awesome and explained everything perfectly. Rained out before playing the back 9, but will definitely be back to play. Thanks!

Course bad shape

Course was in bad shape. Sand traps were hard as a rock. Tall weeds all over the place in fairways and all around the greens. They were in the process of putting sand on the greens and they were not in good shape. Not worth the money I spent for 4 people golfing.

Great track.

Was able to get a GolfNow hot deal. Great value. Course was in fantastic condition. Greens rolled perfectly. Staff was friendly. Cart I got was super fast, I won’t say which number so they don’t get rid of it, but I was able to play 18 in just 2hrs. Highly recommend course.
