Great Day Always

I will start with is the course great shape. This year I had a Golf outing, Family Day Outting of 70, ending with a birthday outing small but great. I was able to park my RV in the back for the extra travelers. The staff I rate 100%,

Tried to upload images, not working.

Women’s bathroom is a mess for Years!

The clubhouse bathrooms are a disgrace and have been for years! This could be a beautiful place to hold events - but the bathrooms are a disgrace!

Great Value for a Course in Great Shape

Course is in really good shape for the money, greens rolled true. Staff is great. Front 9 plays pretty easy compared to the back.

Local Course Keeps Getting Better

Booked through GolfNow website. Staff was very friendly. Allowed me as a single to head out early since they were not super busy. Course was in good condition and being improved during my round - new sand being added to bunkers on the back 9. Not a super difficult track, but will keep you on your toes and honest. Greens were firm, but fair. Will be back again

Confusing layout, frustrating back 9

Course was in great condition. Awesome that they had a full restaurant. Staff was friendly. Only 6200 from the tips. Pace of play was the best out of any course I've played, finished in just over 3 hours.

The layout was so frustrating, particularly the back 9. Trees line just about every hole and if you miss the fairway your ball is gone. If you're not a straight hitter, bring a half dozen balls.

Do not walk the course. There is a long winding bridge through marsh with narrow tracks to keep the cart on.

Tons of blind shots and doglegs that lead to marshes/water. Do not play here unless you have some sort of a course GPS.

Cart return is confusing, no signs on where to put the carts, everyone just parks them in random spots.

Would recommend playing the front 9 only.

Extremely fun course to play

This course has something for everybody. It's extremely fun to play. Every hole is different. You have great scenery and every hole is different. One whole year driving off an island over the marshes up a hill around the corner. The next hole you're teeing off a top of a super high hill overwater into the woods. The staff was really nice. I actually forgot my putter of course and they had one for me. No questions asked. Everything was maintained. I got a tee time off the golf now hot time for $25 for 18 holes which is an absolute steal for this course.
