Course in rough shape

Course was nice but very beat up. Could be really good but needs quite a bit of renovations.

3 hours for 9 holes

My review is only for the first 9 holes. No idea how the back 9 plays because after finishing hole number 9 in 3 hours and 4 minutes, I had to leave. Paid for 18 but figured a 6 hour pace of not what I signed up for.

I've been told it's a slow pace but I was not expecting it to be this bad.

CV Golf course

Great to have a starter. Pace of play was average. I never saw a course marshal out there to take care of the slow play. Fairways should be maintained better. In below average shape. Greens were in excellent shape. Great bunker placement.

Slow pace of play + fairways being punched

I grew up with this course and although conditions have improved, pace of play hasn't. Even on weekdays it is still slow, just too many players on the course at once. The back 9 are being punched and although the marshall welcomes you to try to play double front 9, the course is packed with nowhere to go.

Just a slow day

Usually play here in 4-5 hours. Unfortunately this day it took us 5 1/2 just for 15 holes. Marshals more interested in getting cans and bottles out of trash cans then fixing ropes, raking bunkers, moving golfers along. Still, extremely happy about this course. Just a little more TLC and we have a gem!

Longest round I ever played, more than 6 hrs.

Back nine has the tees and green too close. We were almost hit by several balls coming from other holes. Dangerous

Course play.

No starter organizing tee times. Started 15 minutes past my tee time because another group was claiming they had my tee time (I had a full group too). By the 4th hole (par 3) there was 5… yes 5 different tee times trying to play the hole. We waited about 20-25 minutes to play, Marshall came by and we complained but he just shrugged it off and said that’s usual for the par 3 holes to get backed up like that. Can’t say I have the desire to ever go back again.

Nice course Terrible maintenance

This was a nice course back in the day but for them to let it get as bad as it is they should be ashamed, and for the price they are charging that is criminal
