Cow Pasture

Disgraceful excuse for a golf course. Greens are a mess. Clumps of grass growing. Bumpy. Fairways painted green over dead Bermuda.

They sent a single out in front of us, he joined the foursome ahead of us, made a group of five, two walking, and three in carts. Called the pro shop, came out and split the group up. Then a threesome behind us, that the starter moved us ahead because they were not ready, came up and told the single to join them. This was fine, but instead of the single dropping back with them, they just moved up, telling us, they were scheduled to be before us. This was not right! They weren’t ready at their tee time, they should have stayed behind us.

Not Worth The Money

Horrible course conditions. Need a new Grounds Manager to keep this course in good shape.

Greens terrible

Played this course numerous times and found out to be nice. Haven't played for a couple of weeks and the greens are just terrible. Looks like weeds and very bumpy. Will not be going back until I see

Poor conditions for prime season

Dormant painted fairways and greens were half dead. For being prime season course was in terrible shape. It is a flat course so there are a lot of walkers which slows the pace of play to a slow crawl. Plan on a 5 hour round

This course is a Dog Track

Unbelievably poor condition, a total sham for $52…….Have never played a course so bad in 49 yrs of golf.. The greens were worse than pathetic and fairways were painted , presumably to attract the unsuspecting golfer. Close it down.

Like playing in a cesspool

Be aware that fully 50% of the course is blanketed in a massive stink zone. We played twice in the past four days, but never again. The water is so stinky it gags you. The greens are in awful shape. It was windy, I can't imagine the smell on a calm day.

They have let this course go

It was very disappointing to experience the course. The fairways were dry, no grass, some kind of paint in it, minimal grass around the greens, greens were bumpy. Worse I’ve seen it ever.

First and last time

This course is a joke, fairways don't have grass. If you do find some fairway grass it is parched or brown

Back 9 was backed up where I counted 4 groups waiting to tee off on one of the par threes.No Marshall to control play, Fairways have not seen water since last years monsoon season

Total waste of money

Cold and wet

Unfortunately we were driven off the course after 6 holes of play by the extreme cold, rain, hail and high winds, so, not too surprisingly we did not see any other insane people on the course and pace of play was dictated by our own ability to actually move in our multiple layers of clothing. The staff were very friendly and we were given rainchecks with no argument. This was a very pleasant surprise.
