Worth the Money

After reading the reviews I was hesitant on booking, but I'm glad I did. For the money, the course is on point. Course conditions were good, pace of play was 4 hours and the starter was great about getting people to the tee on time. There was a beverage attendant on the course, but wasn't sure about food at the turn. All and all a good experience which could be great with a little extra effort.

Play elsewhere

Nice clubhouse, great staff. Course they n poor shape, greens riddled with missing patches of grass. Fairways bone dry and hard compact.

Had to wait gif carts and 9 holes took nearly 2:45 hours to play. We did not finish 18 holes. Great for locals but not for visitors looking for a decent game.

Good Course

First time playing this course in years. Good challenging course. Greens rolled well and were in good shape. Had a tee time at 9:40 but didn't tee off until 10:15. They seem to just sell tee times and hope for the best. Even though the course was crowded we did finish in 4.5 hours. That shocked me because we waited on every single shot.

Questionable Course Condition

This course was recommended by an acquaintance however I found the course to not be what was recommended. Greens were very patchy with noticeable unrepaired damage. The fairways were like hitting off of concrete- you couldn’t get the club to not bounce on every swing. I will not return. I’m

Would not waste your money

The tee boxes were uncut and very unlevel. I wouldn’t even call them fairways grass is very thin with hard dirt lies underneath. Greens were terrible. There was more surface that was ground under repair than actually putting surface.

Good But

Enjoyable round, friendly staff, course conditions good for winter, but our tee time was delayed 45 minutes due to shortage of carts. This is unacceptable.

Winter golf

The price was reasonable but the course wasn’t great this time of year. No grass to speak of and a lot of leaves and dormant areas to hit off of.
