Great routing.

Looks like there might have been some flooding here, because the fairways were pretty thin. In times of drought, like now, this can make it more difficult to repair the damage. With sod installed in various fairways, it's evidence of course supervisor trying to upgrade the conditions. Great layout, with plenty of length. Great set of par 3s. Friendly and helpful staff.

Horrible Fairways

Pace of play is good. Most people walk. The fairways are absolutely horrible though. It’s just dirt minus a few holes. The greens are good, but if you destroy your clubs on the way doesn’t matter. They should shut down for 6-12 months and fix the course.

It was hard to find a fairway in all the brown patches

I understand that the course fairways may be under aerification but the course is absolutely in no condition to play.

They should not be charging 50 bucks for this course especially in this condition. This was the price that one of the golfers paid.

Could be better

Greens are in good condition. A lot of the tee boxes are under repair a long with many fairways. I found myself strategically hitting the ball to avoid all the grounds under repair (manure). the course layout is fun and challenging.

A Regular

Played the course about 20 times over the last 9 months, condition of the course has started to improve, the greens are in better condition, new tee boxes are being grown in, but the fairways need help, hit a drive dead center of the fairway and you have no grass, but the layout is great, challenging but fair. I like the course and will be back many more times!!

A lot of dirt

I hope they can get this place back in better condition. Not a lot of grass on the fairways. Greens not bad but the fairways are bare.

Hitting Out of Dirt!

Course has great potential. However, the current conditions makes the course unplayable. All fairways are in very poor condition. Way to many dirt patches. I spent the day fighting poor lies instead of enjoying the round, hitting out of dirt patches all day. Spoke to the course martial, who stated "Club House rules are to move your ball onto the closets patch of grass." I would not recommend play this course for now until they get it fixed.
