Good course for the price

Considering the discounted rate for play, the course was good. Fairways have some bare spots. Bunkers are OK, some had stones others had grass growing in them. Nice course layout for the average golfer. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

It was just OK

The course was nice, but there is just so much upkeep that needs to be done to make it really enjoyable. The cart paths are in bad shape and directional signage could be improved.

Great for the price!

My wife and I played in 3 hours. Hardly anybody else on the course. We let one single play through and still finished in 3 hours on a Wednesday afternoon.

Beautiful course

1st off 29$ for this course is an unreal deal….. fairways were perfect greens were firm and fast which is challenging and the bunkers were soft….. only downfall is no range…. But they do have a hitting net and I knew there wasn’t a range going into my round…. The carts are nice with coolers and rain protection…. I love the par 3 8th with an extreme elevation change!!!! Will play here again for sure!

Great bang for the buck!

There are some holes that are tight off the tee that could make it a long day for golfers who spray it wide, but overall this is a very fun track. Good topography, sloping greens, and some great risk/reward shots. I was surprised to find the course virtually empty at 11:00 on a Saturday. At the pricing, I'll play here again in a heartbeat.
