Great Facilites, fun track

Great facility and a nice easy track. Not a lot of waste area or elevation change makes it a great place to go low. Set my current PR here

TYPICAL SLOW PLAY

A delayed start and very, very slow play due to a bachelor party involving bad golfers that the course could not or would not manage

Great day!

It was a great day on the course! I would like them to do something about their driving range. As fairways on either side of the driving range was littered with balls and it was hard to find our ball. Either raised the fence or use off colored balls for the driving range. Also there was several non-range balls in the mix which made it very hard to sort out which ball was ours. I assume that they are balls that got picked up off of the driving range that golfers had errant hit into the driving range. And never got sorted out.

Always a good course to play

I play this course regularly. The greens and fairways are in good shape They lost some big trees over the last few years, but they have planted many more. It's now under good management with some good ideas. Always fun to walk this course.

March golf is amazing

We were in town for a wedding and we wanted to play a great course. REally enjoyed this course. Pace of play was quick. We finished our round in 4 hours. Course was in great shape. One negative was the sand in the bunkers. It is a dark brown sand and tough to hit a consistent shot from the bunkers. Staff was very friendly and a reasonable price for club rentals.
