First Time Playing

This course has a lot of potential

First time Canadian playing this course. Upon arrival great gentleman assisted with clubs and instructions. Practice facilities were average at best. Range balls were terrible along with tee area. Putting green looked like it was spray painted green which left paint all over your ball. As for the course itself, I've played a lot nicer courses for $100 (130 exchange) in Canada. Tee boxes were terrible. Fairways were okay. Greens were good and challenging but towards end of course more ball mark divots becoming an issue. Water everywhere and those poor houses along the course on miss hits!!! Gave it a 3 overall because for the price I expect more.

Grass on tee boxes was long or non - existent

Greens were very good

Challenging

This course has always been challenging.

Played it at least 12 yrs ago when the conditions were supreme but has deteriorated since. Still a great layout with challenging holes but the greens were like velcro.

We unfortunately were paired with 2 very slow players and had a 3some ahead of us that were also beginners which lead to a 5 hour round.

Staff is extremely friendly and they offer free bottles of water.
