A deluxe course, very challenging

Very good, lots of sand and water. A real challenge here, if you can golf this place anywhere near par, your a pretty good golfer, l would recommend this course to everyone, but 5 hours for 18 holes is way to long

Challanging course

Had a great time, the course is very challenging. Greens in good shape fairway bunkers not in good shape just keep it off the bunkers. Overall very nice course pace of play was slow I can see why players in front were having a difficult time. Course defenetlt not so forgiving for high handicap players. Will come back for sure even though is about about 35 to 40 minute drive.

A Great Track

George Dunn was in great shape today, and we were paired up with a couple of great guys. It's a classic course on the city's south side and is pretty tough, even from the white tees. I'll come back!

Some things never change

Haven’t played here in a while because of slow play. That was the case again today. Just over 5 hours!

It’s a wonderful layout and the bunkers are in pretty good shape. I’d play here again but only if not in a rush.

Terrible Experience

Avoid at all costs! Throughout the round it was apparent that the course has not been maintained this season. Every bunker was washed out with some having plants growing and sod chunks in them. It was ridiculous especially considering the amount of bunkers on the course. Several of the tee boxes were in desperate need of top dressing as it was hard to even tee your ball without another divot affecting your lie. Overall, the course was not as advertised on its website and I would never recommend this course to anyone.

Considering all the rain

The course was pretty good shape except for the bunkers. Time to spend some money and upgrade. Sand and mud makes for impossible bunker shots. Golf carts are old and could use new ones! Overall, we enjoy this challenging track. Be back soon!

Fishing on golf course... really

Great course, tough layout. Only issue I had was on several holes you had people fishing and standing in your way to shoot. They fix that I’ll be back but until then I’ll play somewhere else.
