One of my favorites.

Course is great, well taken care of. Prices are fair, especially if you’re an afternoon golfer. Overall love the course. Wish they would bring back twilight where after 530 you could golf as many holes as you could get in before dark!

Shady Staff - Trying to overcharge

Played and paid for 9 and decided to make the turn for the back 9. When going to pay for the back 9 they tried charging us $29. Cost for 18 is $56 and we had already payed 37 on GN. Therefore, should have only been $19. Pro shop staff was shady and couldn’t understand the problem with that. Will be taking business elsewhere.

Good!!!!

The staff was awesome and very friendly. The Clubhouse was impressive. The course itself was not in very good condition. Greens were nice, but there was a lot of ground under repair. Fairways just not maintained that well. The front nine also felt like a shooting range with the fairways being too close to one another. We had people in our fairway on multiple holes (more than normal). all that said, I would go back in hopes it is much improved.

Challenging but Fun

We always enjoy playing here. Certainly helps to know the course for hidden trouble on a couple of holes. White tees and longer have to hit over a lot of marsh areas. Greens are in great shape.

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.
