So just ok

There is some value here at $33 but the course is in rough shape. Rock hard fairways. The green were better but a few had bare patches. Pace of play was ok 4 1/2 hours but waiting at every hole. There were 2 onesomes ahead of our twosome we caught up and played with one of them. Club could benefit from a starter. Lots of ambassadors on the course checking in and offering water. At this price point you got what you paid for. Overall a good experience, but there are better courses out there.

Crying for help !

This course is a fine layout and the cart fleet is in great condition but otherwise totally in need of a great amount of TLC. Greens were in poor condition even though they were punched and top dressed weeks ago and there has been tons of rain to help them heal. Fairways are hard as a rock and have alternate bare areas and muddy spots. If you play there I would recommend not trying to play the ball down and agree with your partners to move into a good lie. Overall this course needs to have a major refurbishment and is only worth playing with discounted green fees.

Pro Bowl Golf

I have nothing but respect for the challenges the staff is faced with at this golf course. The cross between golfers who truly understand the rules of golf and speed of play and respect for those playing groups who are behind them. Its a win/loss situation when the course Marshals attempt to have groups speed up when they are playing slow. We had a group that was 2 holes behind at the 4th hole as a result we had a 3 hour front 9 and asked as was given a raincheck which was granted. Great job by them hopefully people will do better playing golf. and time management. The staff will continue to get kudos for listening and being apologetically sincere.

Waste of time

It was the longest round I have ever played. Stacked up 2-3-4 foursomes on each hole. 6 1/2 hours. Poorly managed. The course was a cow pasture. Greens are pebbled like a curling rink. I wouldn't play again if you paid me.

A little rough

This course hasn’t been in the best of shape for the last few years , but the greens are usually pretty playable!

You’ll just have to bump the ball up and move it around in the fairways thru to the greens . The staff are always really friendly and pretty good at pairing people up so u don’t get behind a bunch of singles stuck inbtween the foursomes! Play is usually at a decent pace
