Members ruin the experience

3 straight groups of 5 playing very slow with a member mentality that you can’t question. The course needs a starter

Winter toll

The greens were in good shape, but there were a number of places where rain runoff created bare, rutted areas. Hopefully withe the warmer weather they’ll attempt to repair these places.

Excellent Course for the money

Just like the title states, it’s an excellent course. I watch their series ‘restoring the ridge’ on YouTube from time to time and all the work they’ve done is spectacular. The range being included along with the practice bunker, chipping area, and putting green make it a fantastic value. I would pay normal rate but the hot deal times are an absolute steal. Try to tell everyone to give this gem a shot. Was able to play a full 18 with a 4pm tee time, left at 6:15 and would’ve been done sooner if I wanted to speed up a bit. 10/10 come play this course.

Too Slow

Course range is not maintained. They stack tee times too close together so that the pace of play is always extremely slow. Most members aren’t very polite to allow faster playing groups play through.

For a February day the course (cart path only) that day day was in excellent condition. The greens were awesome. Also the course waterfall was running beautifully.
