Writing this on hole 5

I’m writing this review on hole 5. So far it has taken me an hr to play 5 holes.... I can play all 18 in 2.5 hours. The pace of play is painfully slow. Never have I been able to sit on a putting green and practice putting for 15 mins a hole basically. The group a head of me will not let me pass and the group in front of them is painfully slow as well. Greens are fast like super fast. Fair ways are nice and green. I would recommend this course.

*Edit*

Had so much time waiting on the 5th hole greens keeper came and talked to me. Very nice and told me when they mow and seed. Awesome staff here!

This course was well kept.

I wish they would of spaced out golfers a bit more. We trailed a four-some and then behind us was another four-some and we all kept bumping into each other. Other than that. It was awesome.

Just right for a beginner

I chose this course because my 16 yr old son wanted to golf with me, but he only picks up his clubs a couple of times a year. As it turns out, the other twosome that joined us had a newbie also. It seems to cater to this type of golfer, so the pace of play was slow enough for them to have fun!

As far as the course conditions are concerned, fairways were in better conditions than I expected, but the tee boxes were terrible.

Overall though, fun was had by all and I would absolutely take him there again :)

Great short course

We had a really good time playing this course. We went around twice. The course was in great shape with tricky greens that made it more challenging than expected. Absolutely would recommend this course.

9 hole quickie

Nice little 9 hole golf course. Looks maintained just fine. Not too many obstacle challenges. Maintenance guys have hoses drug across fairways watering, which definitely messes up the rolling golf ball. One guy was watering by hand and would not move. I'm not a great shot, he was playing with fire. $51 for a 7:30 tee time with a cart. A little expensive for 9 holes I think.
