Excellent course

The course was in good shape for this time of year. One par 4 was wet & therefore was set up as a par 3. It's a great course layout with all holes unique.

Fun course

Front nine a little rough. Back nine spectacular. Great layout, good pro shop, snack bar and cart girl were off duty a little early but no big deal.

Course is in horrible shape

Course is in rough shape. Temp green on one of the holes, par 4 changed to par 3, bunkers were muddy or wet. I understand that winter was rough this year, but paying $60 is not worth it. Could have played a course in better shape for $75. Also, when I checked in the guy wanted to charge me again.

Decent for early season

Course is BEAT with snow run off ruts and dead grass. But nothing so bad you can't play.

Bad Timing

Due to weather the back nine was closed. We were allowed to play 18 which meant the front nine was overcrowded. Overall the course conditions were below average because of the harsh winter weather. By late spring the course should be in excellent condition.
