However the course is doing a good job of compensating the distraction and maintaining the greens as best they can possibly do. I still recommend the course. William Holt

A pleasure to play

This course had many interesting and challenging holes. Generally the course and greens were in good condition despite the problems experienced in the winter. We found it difficult to come to terms with the slow pace of the greens but otherwise an enjoyable course to play. Staff were helpful and welcoming. Highly recommended!

Good course with marginal greens

Both the pro shop personnel and the starter/ranger were super friendly and accommodating. The fairways were In good condition but the greens were very inconsistent. Some were pretty good but many had large bare spots or patches of dead grass. No. 10 was pretty much dirt all over. If you can get a deal give it a try but you will be quite dissatisfied if paying full price.

Poor conditions

The grass on many tee boxes was not cut. Many greens had huge bare areas. Many areas of fairways were poor or even dirt. It rained 2 days ago and the bunkers were still hard-pack or hard dirt. Played 3 years ago and the course was in great shape. Something has gone wrong...a real shame.

elevated fairways

there were some unique holes the first green looked terrible but it rolled nice the second hole looked a little better after that the greens were great . It had a lot of elevated fairways so a ball missing the fairway would run in the woods . we got to the washroom and they were locked the starter forgot to tell us that the key was on the cart ring .again the greens were very and we enjoyed this course. I played 33 rounds on my 2 month golf trip and this would rank in the top 10

Upstate NY

I would warn golfers that this course has narrow fairways. Not much leeway for error. Not well marked.. pro shop, next tee. Personnel were friendly and the course was fun to play. Gave it a 3 star on my personal spreadsheet. Would play again.

Public with the Qualities of a private course

We played 2 rounds this week and even if It was in the afternoon the pace was excellent. Considering the season the conditions of fairways and greens were really good. For us it’s the plantation course we’ve played during our vacation in Myrtle beach.

Great layout run by folks without golf knowledge

The layout is great, greens were good and practice tee is good. BUT... we did not see a ranger or beverage cart for the 6 hours we were out there. Went off the back and played in 1.5 hours, then over 3.5 hours for our second nine. The starter obviously cannot balance two-tee starts. The tee boxes were driving range stall wide, the was never an option to select a side to tee off and 3 times there were trees in the direct line off the tee because the box was so tight and on the wrong side of the teeing ground. They played cart path only but the course was dry, other than holes that already had ropes, so a dumb decision that contributed to the terribly slow back nine. A real shame as the layout is terrific and challenging, just need some golf intelligence applied.
