Bare bones

Seriously, this is bare bones. The only thing you get for your money is the use of the course. No warmup balls, no water. He ll, they don’t even provide tees.

First time wasn’t good

The pace of play wasn’t bad up until about hole 8 or 9. We finished the front in 2 hours. Once we hit the back 9 there was a huge backup and we had 4 groups waiting at the 12 tee box. Multiple people called the pro shop to let staff know and no one came out to do anything about it. There was one group of degenerates playing ahead and they were holding up everyone. They had no respect for anyone else playing behind them and management did nothing to fix it. Probably won’t be back for a while.

Nice course for the money. Finished in less than 4 hours. Pace of play is typically a problem on the weekends.

Good value but crawling pace of play

The course is in really good shape. It’s short but the layout and thick rough provide good defense. Well priced relative to other courses of similar quality in the area. Pace of play is RIDICULOUSLY SLOW. Be prepared to play a 5 to 5.5 hour round. The course needs to get a couple rangers out there to improve pace, because many of the people who play there are apparently not aware of proper pace of play.

US Open rough

Had a great time. Course was in fine condition but the rough was really thick. Anything off the fairway was hard to find and very tough to make contact. Keep it on the short grass.

Good course to feel good about yourself

Not a lot of trouble, not very long, several wood and wedge holes, greens in great shape. Might be better value paying a little more for something more challenging, but was an overall enjoyable early season round

Well designed and maintained course just make sure to stay out of the unforgiving rough. Staff was friendly and helpful. Only complaint was the pricing ( a little too much for me).

Course is great but a few minor issues

Lovely course with fast greens and thick roughs.

2 minor issues:

1- the starter is not nice. He’s pushy and makes you play early rather than allowing you a few minutes to warm up and play at your designated tee time. His attitude leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

2- the tee boxes could use some work. It’s challenging to find a flat spot to hit off of. Most of the time you are teeing off with the ball below or above your feet.
