Very Interesting course

Course is laid out in the most random way I have ever seen. All of the staff were very friendly,minus one old guy atthe front desk. We were told several times that our wives could ride along with us, and then when we went to check in, the older guy was rude. Also, my buddy asked to purchase a box of balls, meaning he wanted a sleave, and the old guy rang gimme for a box of balls and said he couldn't void the purchase. Eveyone was great except that guy.

Waited 20 minutes for a golf cart. Very, very slow pace. People were quitting after 3 holes. It was backed up.

Poor service at bar.

Nice all around course

I played as a single and fortunately the course was a bit empty that day finished in 3 hours. Staff were very friendly and all the amenities were great. The carts are newer and have charging ports for your phone nice bonus. I would recommend playing here if you’re in the area.

Beautiful setting

It had rained hard the night before we played, so the course was a little soggy. That didn’t detract from how beautiful the course is! The course was well kept and challenging. The 18th hole was brutal, but we had a great time and will be back! Highly recommended!

Nice Course/Horrible Service

The course is a challenging and fair course. Holes 2,3, and 18 are extremely narrow. However, the rest of course is more fair. holes 17 and 18 feel like a different course.

POOR SERVICE: You have to walk to the carts from the other side of the street. Two card kids sat in their own carts looking at their phones and didn’t acknowledge me as I walked up. I had to initiate conversation by asking, “Do I take any cart?” Their response, “yeah”. I then asked, “Who am I paired up with?” Their response was “We don’t know.”

ZERO WATER on the entire course! No restroom on the entire front nine. At the tenth tee there was a snack shack that was closed at 4pm. No bev cart girl. On the last 5 holes every tee box had the foursome in front of us and we were a threesome. So seven people waiting on the group in the fairway. On the last hole (par 5) there were 5 groups. One on the green, two groups in the fairway, two groups on the tee box. Called clubhouse on 14th tee, was told “No Marshall he left at 2.” It was 92 degrees and zero water, no snack bar, no bev cart.

Difficult course

If you are a player who relies on your driver, and wide open fairways; this might not be the course for you. While it is a stunning course lined end to end with trees. It is a very challenging course with narrow fairways and very little rough to play.

Plays much tougher than the card suggests

If you do not hit your drives straight the tree-lined fairways will eat you alive. And the fast greens will challenge you when you eventually arrive. I can't believe the slope and rating are accurate for this recently reconfigured layout, which by the way, routes you dangerously across a busy street. And then there is the insanely routed par five 18th that measures 594 from the white tees and is only the 3rd hardest hcp! Really?

Slow play

No Marshall’s on the course and we left after the 15th hole because it was taking 20 minutes per shot. After passing up the 2 groups ahead of us on the 16th hole there was no one one 17 or 18?
