Avoid on weekends, otherwise great

I've played this course twice on Friday afternoons and it was a great course. Slightly overpriced but a very nice hidden gem.

We decided to play there on a Saturday morning this summer and it was an absolute joke. They were out of carts due to an outing, there were fall-down drunks on the course and in the clubhouse, and everyone's rounds were over 5 hours (ours was 5hrs 15min, and that's not including a 40 minute tee-off delay). Apparently there was an outing on the course, but how could you not be prepared for that with enough carts and a ranger? There was no ranger at all that day. The staff did a good job of keeping us informed of what was going on during the tee delay and we were even given free drinks for the inconvenience, so they deserve some praise. But I hope in the future the owner would get their act together and better prepare for Saturday outings. Until then I will not be playing there on weekends.

Beautifully Maintained

The grass was well maintained, staff was friendly, my brother and I went in the early morning and had most of the course to ourselves, beer is a bit expensive but the everything else makes it a minor detail. Definitely look forward to going back!

Decent for the money

Pretty easy course. Was able to use to use most of my clubs. Not a whole lot of creativity needed to golf here. I'm a high handicapper so this course fit me very well. Rough was not obscenely long and was decent to hit out of, the traps were in good shape and consistent from hole to hole with depth and softness of sand. If you like to hit driver and not play a "shotmakers" this is a great one.

Walked

Great course to walk :)

I'm a 5 handicap and this course provided plenty of challenging shots and breaks on the greens. I arrived about 30 minutes before my tee time and the clubhouse starter was very cordial and let me go early. I would recommend this course to anyone. Long par 4's are challenging and you have to take advantage of the par 5's to get your strokes back.

Longer Par 4s

First time here. Nicely maintained course on a scenic property in country setting. Challenging, longish par 4s and 3s with some undulating greens that were quick but not crazy fast. Lots of mature oaks line the course but fairways generous enough to provide confidence off the tee. Enjoyed first round here and looking forward to many more.

A great course for everyone

With generous fairways and a good price, this course is prefect for a bogey golfer. A nice variety of holes. Fair but challenging. The staff is friendly too.

Good Sun pace of play

Course in excellent shape, a little challenging early AM with east/west hole layout but a good challenge. Staff quite friendly and so were the locals.
