TWILIGHT GOLF EXPERIENCE

Not the 1st time at KG but 1st time at twilight. Tee off on time but we were behind 4 walkers so we had to wait until they had a far enough distance which took a bit. While on fairway halfway to hole 1, the walkers were putting so we had to again wait. The range marshall then pulled up next to us and said if we can't go a bit faster the group behind us can overtake us. We thought this was odd as we were behind walkers, so if they group behind overtakes then they would be behind the walkers. We kept playing our game and at the check point we were only 5 minutes behind. At hole 8 we had 20 minutes to return (must return by 730 pm) the cart and the group behind us skipped that hole and got stuck behind the walkers at hole 9. They weren't happy and had to drop their cart and walk. We did the same and return by foot to hole 9 to finish. It was a kerfuffle as 3 walking groups merged together (at this time is mostly comedy). It took another 20 minutes for the group of 4 to finish, before we could go. Then the group behind us had to wait that additional time. We spoke to the range marshall again and he said we weren't hitting our times but he seemed to forget we were behind walkers. He said "it took you 6 hits to get to the hole" (it was a par 5). I think he just had a long day. Still an enjoyable golf outing.

Can’t beat the price for a fun layout

Only negative was the amount of older solo players (who refused to pair up) and were taking longer than groups of 2-3 around them. Otherwise loved the course and day!

Great customer service!

I didn’t get to play. After about 45 minutes of waiting for the weather to clear I decided to leave. It was an easy calm the next day for a refund! The agent that helped was very friendly and helpful.

Good value option

A decent challenge on a very short track - particularly the back nine where irons from tees are needed. Many holes with water so wayward hitters might suffer as fairways are tight.

Great value and course condition was pretty good. Overall experience was better than I was expecting

Fun Course

Overall great 5 stars. The cart paths are heaving because of tree roots, still not a big deal. The course layout and greens were awesome. Had a great time with the group of people that had the same tee time. The marshal was a very nice, the club house staff had everything ready to go, cart cleaned and cart gps worked great.

A gem in the city

Very nice municipal course. Fairways were well maintained and greens were rolling true.

We had a shower the night before which left the course cart path only but drainage was excellent in most holes.

Avoid the geese that are local residents of the course but are a reflection of the balance of the course.

Pro shop staff was friendly and helpful. Paired me up with 2 locals that play daily. Pace was great even with all the groups after us.

At the turn we saw summer camps for the upcoming younger kids happening.

Would definitely play again.

Fun course no matter your level of play

Course is kept in great shape considering how much it is played. It also drains very well. Greens were a little slow even after the morning dew evaporated.
