Poor Course

I was shocked to see a golf course in such a bad condition. Had to give up playing on 13 hole because of the Course was not playable.

Overall, a nice course.

Overall I really like the course. I would certainly play it again. It wasn't in perfect shape but the course is well designed and offers good challenge depending on the tees you choose to play from. We've had a lot of rain lately which contributed to some of the conditions. However, with 1 of the 4 nines closed outright and basically funneling all the groups from the 2 front nines to a single back nine created some waiting, didn't like that. One fairway was unplayable due to its condition. Nonetheless our foursome had a very enjoyable round and i have no doubt we'd go back again.

Slow!!!

Slowest round I have played in a very long time. We started our round just after an outing and were promised that once we make the turn the outing was done and the pace would speed up. It did not! The coures workers continued to just drive and not say anything to the extremely slow players ahead of us.

Course needs help. Too early in the season maybe

This course was in poor condition. Greens were recently aerated and they were not playable. The putts bounced around all over the place and you could not get a line. They should not have charged full fair for the conditions the course was in. In addition, the course itself is not well maintained. If you are not in the faiway you are in either a patch of dirt or a clump of grass. This can be just off the fairway too not way off in the woods either.

Not worth full price on Saturday/Sunday mornings.

I understand it takes a lot of money to keep bunkers filled with sand, but don't build them if you can't make the effort to fill them. I have played here for a few times every year and I have never seen sand in ALL the bunkers.

It is still a nice course and you will be challeged on most holes.

terrible condition

I have played this course many times and this was the worst I have seen it. The greens that had grass needed to be cut and several had dirt around the hole placement. They also aerated the greens and did not tell us about any of this before playing. They did give me $20 towards another round after I said something. This should have been disclose upfront and given to me for the round I played.

Nice layout - Terrible shape

I am from out of the area and book courses relying on web sites. This is the first time I have been disappointed.
I can't stress enough how bad the conditions of the fairways, greens, bunkers, golf carts and even the tee boxes were. The place was in shambles. Some greens had bare dirt spots, some were "furry". On one hole that was overgrown I reached down and pulled up a blade of grass, it measured over 1" long. Even the cart paths were in bad shape. There is no way I would play here again.
I booked online at $50 ea. and a local person that joined our twosome had paid only $25. Even he told us this place was bad and he overaid. What a ripoff. This was a bad ending to a nice road trip.
