Nice layout and Well maintained course

Course is in great shape from tee to green. Back nines are carved through tree forest makes it challenging and fun. Staff is very friendly . Will definitely play again.

Some tight areas of OB on some of the fairways. Greens were nice for the most part considering there is lots of tree coverage on the back 9. Some forced carries make it challenging.

First time playing this course

I played on Memorial Day and thought the course was well kept with a good pro shop and restaurant. I did however run in to 2 angry players. The 1st person was vocally angry at me for hit a chip on the practice green that dribbled close to the hole he was putting on. While I didn’t intend for the ball to go that close that guy was verbally abusive. After playing for about 2 hours the group behind us caught up to us and said that the people in the group behind them were yelling at them for looking stray balls. I chuckled and said I also ran into an angry person. Not sure what’s going on either in this area or on this particular course but there were too many angry people golfing on Memorial Day when they should have been relaxing and having fun. PS. I have to give credit to the ranger for his patience and ability to diffuse the complaints about slow play.

Nice course, crazy people

Decent course overall. Fairways, greens and tea boxes all in good shape. The layout of the course was just OK. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We golfed on Memorial Day and ran into two different angry golfers. One was upset at the putting green if anybody used the same cup that he was using and another group complained because they said the flow of play was too slow. While these things can be annoyances. I don’t understand people‘s full-blown temper tantrums on a beautiful day when they should be enjoying the day out.

Great day on the golf course!

Scored a great hot deal rate! They were not busy and let us out a bit early where there was a a gap. We sailed around in 3 hours 20 minutes with no one in front or behind us! Greens were a bit slow but the course was in great shape overall. Friendly service at the 19th hole!

Good quality course

This was my second time playing this course. The grounds are in very good shape and the hole layouts aren’t overly challenging but they avoid having a bunch of straight fairways as well. Definitely a fun one too play and a reasonable price.
