Slow Play & What's With The Tee Boxes

From the start we waited 5 to 15 minutes on every shot while a threesome and two singles played in front of us. Why the singles weren't allowed to play through is beyond me and the non-existent course ranger. I plead on these pages once again for better fellow golfer etiquette.

And, for the second time in a week we experienced the shortage of tee boxes - 3 instead of the usual 5. This denies average golfers (male or female) to enjoy the chance to reach 4 and 5 par greens in regulation.

This lakeside course is in decent shape as are all area courses are plush with lush green fairways, thick rough and undulating greens.

Finally, I only recommend this course to others with the two concerns mentioned - slow play and lack of standard tee boxes.

Exceeded expectations

First time playing there definitely worth the 40 minute drive from the lake. Greens were nice, semi slow but very true. Course was way nicer than I expected and was a very fun layout

driving range was nonexistent, they sold you 20 balls for 14 dollars...driving range was out of nowhere, you have to pass throughh the 1st 2 holes to find it, and people are driving their balls to you...customer service was throughle, spend your money elsewhere...im sorry but this is all true..
