Fun use-friendly course

Loved this course. Not too difficult, but enough sand and water to keep your attention. I happily recommend this course to others

Fall

Greens and fairway were not in a good condition. The club house also didn’t tell us there was a full blown festival going on right next to the course. Bathrooms on the course were closed too.

Hard fairways

All of the fairways are hard and have very little grass. Greens are always good.

If they ever grow the grass in the fairways, this course would be great!

It's a Muni

Greens are medium to slow and in decent condition. Fairways are very rough. I'm sure it's due to the lack of rain this summer. Be ready to play preferred lies in the fairway or accept that you may be hitting out of a bare spot or hole. As I put in the title it a muni and is definitely worth the green fees. I will come back because it is a great place for a practice round.

Best bang for your buck!

Course was in nice shape and greens played well. In town for the weekend and was planning to play English Turn however with the resident and non resident fees being more then double $$$ decided to play the “Bart” course. It was the perfect choice!

friendly people

Everybody needs rain around there. Nice restrooms around the course. Water was available on course. Courtesy cart was present for snacks and cold drinks. Lots of water on the course, so checking the scorecard for their locations is a good idea.
