Trash

Worst course in South Alabama. Greens are dead and course is awful. Do not come to this course. Play in your backyard you will enjoy it better.

Garbage

The greens are awful and some greens are dead. No starter and no tee times. It's a backyard no golf etiquette and nobody controlling the course. 6 playing on one hole, four golfers taking four carts, and nobody let's you play through. Worst golf course in South alabama.

Work to Do

Greens were in pretty rough shape. Course closed down the back 9 without notifying us but allowed us to play the front twice. $40 for a round here is laughable. The course needs to either decide to vastly improve the course and greens to make it worth full price or move the price point to a more appropriate $15-20 per round.
