Outstanding Course

The course was in great condition with very challenging greens with undulating surfaces and breaks for putts. The staff was very informative and courteous. It was a great experience. Thank you!

Greens

Some of the early greens are ridiculous. Missing a clown and windmill. They get better as the course goes on.

Too tough for Seniors

The golf course has changed dramatically since all the Covid work. There are almost no flat lies. The greens with unreadable humps, to say nothing of ridiculous pin placements.

In summary: not for me or nearly any other Senior.

Beautiful Course with TOUGH GREENS

Beautiful course and a great pace of play. It’s short but the greens make it extremely challenging. I would play it again anytime.

Tough course but fair

Played at 12:45 on a Wednesday and played in 3 hours. Greens are hard, so land them on the front and roll them back.

Hard course, medium/fast paced greens but I thought it was very fair with great course conditions. Would play again with the hot deal pricing.
