Beautifully maintained course

Very well kept and moderately challenging course. I just wish more people would fix their divots on the greens. Maybe they should give away cheap plastic divot tools at the desk.

Great Value

The greens and fairways are in great shape right now. The course is one of the best public courses around and it's nearly half the price of some of the others. It's a decently challenging course if you play the back (gold) tees. I was a little sad that my round got cut short due to the weather, but I'll for sure be back.

Solid course

It’s a nice course. Not overly long so a good chance to score.

A little pricey but what isn’t these days.

What a great deal

The course is in pretty great shape right now. Bunkers are good sand, fairways and greens are well maintained, the tee boxes are in good shape too. Two small things that could be improved; the rough is a bit too short and I think letting it grow out just a little would be great. And distance markers in the fairway would be helpful. There are basically none so distance is a guessing game. If you have a distance finder, be sure to bring it with charged batteries. Otherwise, great course.

Even on a wet day this was a good course

I wasn't expecting it to rain much on the selected day I chose to play, but it did up to 10min after I arrived. After the rain stopped and other players left, I decided to go ahead and play still. I'm glad I did b/c it ended up being a smooth day on the course and didn't rain again until 10min after I finished the 18th hole. Maybe it was meant for me to use that day as a good day of practice. The staff was great while everyone who was there to play were also very friendly. I look forward to coming back to this course again in the near future.
