Heck of a deal
Really good golf course for the money. Probably in the best condition it has ever been in. I would prefer the greens a little faster. Tim and his staff are first rate!
gas carts
The carts are loud.there gas
Ok Value For The Money, But...
Greens were in terrible shape, with the course close to losing most. Pace of play was torture. A group of 5 in front of us made for one of the slowest rounds I have ever played. There were 4 groups stacked up behind this one group and no ranger was out on the course. I will not be going back.
Nice layout
The designer did a great job of using the natural contours of the land to build a wonderful layout. Although it winds through a housing development the fairways are lined by trees not houses. Wide fairways. Nice elevation changes. Although not fast the greens are fast enough and soft enough to be receptive. Liked the course very much and will play it again the next time I'm in town.
Lenny
Good value and nice overall, would golf again.
Unique design with hills and slopes, would be fun to see and play in growing season.
I liked the course, some repair of paths needed. Would be fun to play in growing season
Course in good shape; Greens a bit slower,but in good shape. Staff in Clubhouse exellent.
Good course ! Some holes required 'thinking' off the tee shot .. i.e. not all holes required using a driver off the tee. Older style course with smaller greens. Great value & fun to play.
Good value close to interstate
More hilly than perceived, water not an issue, had a great time with My Sweet Valentine. First ever eagle number 8, will always remember.
Lots of houses
Even though it is winter, the course was in good shape. There are some elevation changes from tee to green on a few holes. It is not a tight course, which is a good thing because most of the holes are lined with houses. You get a tour of homes as well as a round of golf. Staff is friendly. When you go out on #1 you don't come back to the clubhouse till #18, so I guess it would be termed a "links" course. On a scale of one to ten with ten being the best, I would rate this course a six.
Great track, good value
Course plays well, greens in good shape, staff excellant
Nice experience
Would play this course again. Not too challenging we had a relaxed round - played in 4 hrs - had a beverage cart out. Not bad for a Saturday warning do not count on god call for directions - as ours took us to some housing development and they say it happens all the time.
Great Fairways
This course has some of the best fairways in the area; they're wide and most of them are immaculate.
The greens were aerified several weeks ago and they're still covered with a unique top dressing, but I thought they rolled ok.
Three out of the four par-3's are really great, dramatic holes.
This course is definitely worth the short drive over from Mobile or Pensacola.
My First Time
The course was very well layed out between the beautiful homes. There is ample room on the fairways so a slight miss hit will not get you into someone living room. The food was good, and everyone was friendly. My complaints were that you had to cross too many streets between holes, and that the first 3 of 4 holes greens were very rough.
Beautiful course
Great course and greens in great condition. Fairways coming in and overall are in good shape. Definitely would play again
Great value
I was very skeptical when booking the round, based on the price. Driving into the course, based on the surrounding housing, I had even more reservations. Arrived early so I took advantage of the driving range. The balls were in good condition, the range was average at best. Noticed that a large group of members were getting ready to go off, thought it was going to be an extremely long day. The starter asked if I would like to go off early and get ahead of the group. One of the nicest starters I've ever come across, took time to give me an overview of the entire course. Found the course to be in excellent shape, greens were good. A few had some dead spots, but overall rolled well. Came up on a couple groups of 2, but was waved through. Finished and was greeted by the starter again. Can't say enough about his kindness, definitely will go back if I'm ever in the area again.
Good value in dapne
a cool morning but starting to warm up. I was paired with a father and he's son, who lived in the subdivision, nice people. Course was in good shape considering it was just 29* yesterday. The holes were fun and not to hard, a couple were vary scenic holes like 17 were the tee box was above the green some sixty feet or so with a little pond beside it. I will be playing this course again!
Every hole is a different challenge.
Every hole is a different challenge. Lots of hills, slopes and dog legs. Nice scenery also. I enjoyed that fact that no two holes looked or played alike, I used almost every club in my bag.
very challenging greens.
Overall a good course. Will challenge your game and patience.
