Love the wooded vibe

Fairways and greens are in excellent condition. Just like many golf courses in the area the traps are unplayable. At this time many eliminate a third of them and make them grass bunkers

GD Review

The course is a great layout. However the bunkers lack sand and maintenance. Would be awesome if the bunkers were bunkers not dirt pits. Areas, around greens and bunkers were hard pan. Fairways and greens in great shape except for 2 fairways that had water issues in center.

Needs water

Fairways & rough were dry, sand was barebones. Greens were almost unfair but best part. 5 hr pace. Challenging layout yet overall fun experience. Definitely a course you need to play proper tees on and drop the ego. Wouldn’t go again without a hotdeal

Beautiful Course!

I was invited to join 3 players to round out a foursome. I am so glad I took them up on it. The course was in amazing shape for late summer- early fall. I have no complaints about the fairways, rough or greens. The greens are 'sneaky' fast and it took me the front 9 to adjust. Otherwise, it was an enjoyable day. The only issue we had was a threesome ahead of us that turned a 4 hour round into a 5 hour round. Three groups went thru us and them. Maybe a ranger would have helped.

Great layout, poor traps, no drinking water, no mobile refreshments

Traps were bareley sanded. Consider removing half of traps to reduce operating costs.

Nice course slow play

The course is fun and challenging with many long fun holes, the greens were ok not receptive they need more water or aeration.

The main issue was pacenif play just under 5 Hours way to slow I won’t be back until the weather is cool due to the terrible pace of play

Great course one of my favorites

Conditions were amazing. The greens are true and fast. Bunkers need some love. Course in great shape especially considering the amount of play it receives. White tees are challenging but fair at 6,200. Blue tees are very long and you need 250 plus drives to make it enjoyable from 6,677 yards. Average weekend round will be around 5 hours due to full tee sheets.

Great but…

The layout is great. It’s a relatively straightforward course, but the woods and placement of the sand traps are what make it a challenging round for the average golfer. The greens were pristine, quick and filled with plenty of break. But… the sand traps were virtually unplayable. In August. They were like playing out of the parking lot, and we actually ended up using putter out of the sand on every shot. To charge $70+ for a major part of the course to be unplayable is a bit ridiculous. If you want to play the whole course, you may want to wait until they figure out the sand traps.
