Cool tee shot at the par-3 13th hole. Reminds me a bit of 16 at Augusta. Photo submitted by DenisDotson on 02/17/2020

A tricky finishing hole; a dogleg right over a lake to an elevated green. Photo submitted by DenisDotson on 02/17/2020

Nice course. Been playing it all summer and stays backed up. Will have to find somewhere else to play because of the poor pace of play

Friendly and Fun Golf
The staff great and made me feel like they had known me for years and at home. Loved the course layout because it offered a challenge without taxing you terribly for off target shots. The limited food options were a small concern but not a deal breaker. And the greens were in fantastic shape. I would say it is the best public course between Chester and the Charlotte area.

Horrible conditions
Worst conditions I've ever seen been playing there for 20 years. Should be a $20 course.

Greens need work
Some green maintenance a few months ago is still visible, and putting is less than optimal. Multiple times my group moved balls on putting surface to avoid these issues.
Love the course, but won't return until greens are up to par.
