MUST Play

We played this course several years ago during the fall and I can honestly say, this time around was so much better.

The greens were in great condition, several holes had amazing views and challenging as you had to place your tee shot in the right spot. Same with the greens, of you had a chance for a two put, you had to put the ball in the correct side.

We enjoyed it and will definitely be back.

Worse course for the dollar

If you are looking to play a course that is over priced unkept with no ball washers and rough so high you lose your ball after watching right where it lands. This is a must play. Might be the most disappointed I have ever been in a course. Paid $64 for 18 and a cart. It’s a $35 course. It has a nice layout but it is unkept. Robot mowers sitting all over not working. Partially mowed fairways.

The rough was long due to wet weather and is being mowed down to a goal height of 1.5" which will make the course extremely playable, at times in the Spring we have stretches of wet weather that prevent regular, consistent mowing. The old ball washers have been removed, making room for new ball washers, which will be going in this week. Thanks too for noticing the 8 Kress Autonomous Mowers, they have been working great with some occasional troubleshooting needed. The cut on the fairways is very consistent and much improved.

Golfer Beware

Our group of 20 players all paid different green fees. Some paid $32, $43, and $51. Then they charged us $29 for 9 hole replay. Called to discuss my concerns, 4 days later no response. Too many other golf courses in the area…

Thanks for the feedback, it sure looked the group had a great time! In terms of different fees, some but not all of the golf courses had a Tee Time PassBook that provides a tremendous value. Since some had the discount book and some didn't the fees were different. Since the group played 27 holes, there was an additional 9 hole fee. If there was an unreturned call, that was in error. Please contact us again and ask for Matt.

Great layout that is unkept.

Grass is left unbagged in huge clumps throughout the entirety of the rough. Tons of blemishes on the greens. This course has great potential but doesn’t seem to put much care into groundskeeping.

The rough was long due to repeated wet weather, it has since been cut several times with longer grass 'clumps' largely removed., The goal is extremely playable rough throughout the course Thanks for the feedback on the course an dit's potential. It's come a long way and is getting better every week.

Should advertise as new management and course won’t be ready again for years

I know this course well and when I’m good condition is a nice course. Was unaware of condition when just booking on Golf Now. It is literally a cow pasture at the moment. Couldn’t tell the difference between rough and fairway. The bunkers are unplayable and u will literally get zero roll on any shot. Lost a few balls in the middle of the fairway. For real that bad at moment. Wishing the new owners well for I would hate to see this course turn into a nature trail…

I would encourage you to come back...the fairways were soft and long due to rain, but with the good weather they are now much shorter, firmer and there's roll on most drives. The New Ownership is actively working to improve the conditions, new tee boxes are being constructed on several holes and a lot of necessary drainage work.

Very disappointing

I was under the impression this coarse was on the way up! ! Iv played it 3 times this year and feel it’s getting worse! Not to mention the fact I played on a Saturday afternoon! They were out of just about all food and beverage! No cart girl and honestly some of the rudest other golfers I ever encountered on an average golf coarse! So I’ll have to say it will be my last time this year there weather permitting or not! For what I payed the value is not there! It seems a shame as it’s got potential but seems to just keep failing! So for me I’ll drive further out and play a coarse in better condition and better service and amenities for the same price!

The course has made considerable improvement this year...it's refreshing to have ownership that is actively making upgrades to cart paths, bunkers, tee boxes, drainage, etc. ... it may take a while longer but as a whole the conditions are improving quite a bit.

It was furry

It's been wet lately and likely prevented them from mowing this week but grass on the entire course was overgrown including the greens. We lost balls in the fairway it was so high. New bunkers looked good. Would really have liked playing this joint after a fresh mow.

Thanks,...sorry it was an unusually wet stretch of weather when you played and as you said everything was quite long ... not what we wanted, just an issue with the weather. With the recent dry weather everything fairways, aprons and greens are much tighter and back to summertime conditions (pending no more rain)

Course was not in good shape

Aside from the irrigation the course needs a lot of work. It could be a beautiful course definitely has the potential.

Down Hill Fast

I have played this course a few times in the last few years. First time playing this year and I doubt I will be going back. By September you expect some wear and tear but the fairways were destroyed, not even burnt grass just dirt. The pace of play was awful and the ranger who came by twice did nothing about it. The only positive experience was the clubhouse remodel.

Good news...on 9/15 & 9/16 the new ownership did a full Aerification of the fairways, tees & greens. Rumor is it had been a long time since the fairways were aerified...the new group seems to be on top of it and is putting in the time, effort & money to make it better.

what a shame

What used to be a beautiful course is now hands down the worst shape course in the area. I play 30+ local courses a year. Average to below average in my opinion courses are Raccoon Hill, Brookledge, Chenowith. Those courses are in WAY BETTER shape as hard is that may be to believe. Fairways with 30-40 foot spots with little to no grass, tee boxes a mess. Only positive is staff was very friendly, but I would not go back possibly even for a free round, I would rather pay money and play anywhere else.

I've seen dog tracks in better condition

Anybody who says this course is in good condition has been smoking the grass rather than playing on it. And, there isn't enough of it on any of the fairways. Choked with crabgrass and bare spots. Greens were exceptionally slow on front and fast on back. Almost as if only some of the greens had been cut and rolled. Tees were in terrible condition, including one green that looked like it had just been sprayed with weed killer. Entire space between the posts was brown with long dead weeds and lots of dirt. Very disappointing. Won't be back.

This course should pay you to golf there.

With all the courses in our area this one by leaps and bounds is in horrendous condition. The superintendent should be ashamed to have his or her name attached to this. The fairways are dried up with bare patches and weeds. The rough is a cow pasture in many places. The greens were ok at best. I find it hard to believe given the upscale area this course is in that they are hurting for upkeep money. I will never play here again unless they do something with the conditions. So many other courses in the area are in great condition. Very disappointing.
