Tee box construction

This course tee box under full construction with bulldozer. More than half course not allowed teeboxes. You have to hit in mats on par 3 halls. Other par 4 and 5 halls must hitting on the rough ground with tee. The distance shorter than lady red tee box. Don't play under teebox construction.

Tee boxes are closed

I'm not trying to pan this normally amazing municipal golf course. Charging regular price when 15 of 18 tee boxes completely shut down is unacceptable.

Fairways and Greens are fine. Hitting of mats is not golf. The course will be better in the fall.

Golf staff and food service are excellent.

Tee box construction through end of May

Great course, but tee box construction means many of the holes are shortened through at least the end of May.

Tee Box Issues

Once the tee boxes are open I would recommend the course but right now it’s hard to play with 10 temporary tee boxes

Terrible conditions

The course was in awful shape with many of the tee boxes being unusable and the temporary ones were slanted and unable to hit from. Charged full price when you don’t get the full experience. Great course when i played last year

Tee Boxes are under construction, don’t play!

Holes 4, 5, 6, 8, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16 tee boxes are all under construction. They are giving 0 discounts for the round!!! Really disappointed getting charged full price for a round of golf where you have to hit off mats or overgrown rough for your tee shot. Would not recommend playing here this summer.

Juniors Tournament Destroyed Pace of Play

Management has to do a better job managing tee times and/or pace when a juniors event is happening. The slow play created a 25 min delay to tee off along with waiting at every hole. We finished the front-nine three hours after our original tee time.

I am excited about all the renovations being done but this was a foreseeable problem that was botched.

Aerated with Tee Box Construction

GolfNow did not warn of the construction and aeration. This was unexpected, had I known I would of booked another course. Already a shorter course even at the tips, made shorter with the current construction.

Tee box repair

Fairways and greens were in great shape. However, several tee boxes are being redone at the course, which is a great thing! Those holes had temporary tees set up in the rough or on grass mats. Glad to see they are taking care of this issue…
