The layout of the course is interesting, challenging and features perfectly manicured lush, rolling fairways. You'll be glad you experienced this excellent combination of hole designs and truly great golf. Water comes into play on 10 holes.

Overpriced and outdoor staff unfriendly

Limited public course options, this is a poor one. Course/clubhouse will be demolished and redone (taken private) soon. Course was in bad shape and played slow. Outdoor staff was rude and aggressive but apologized.

Save your money and play somewhere else, lesson learned the hard way.

Too many people booked!

2nd week in a row that we left after 9 holes. 3 hours to play nine and my group left me as a single to finish the back nine. Had all foursomes behind me so I had to leave and not play the back nine. Way too many rounds booked every day. Won’t be back unless things change and I do have the frequent players card. It’s no good if you can’t play 18 holes in under 5 hours!

Not easy

Some whole ask you to be pin point to the flag. Others are fine only if you start at the right place(black, blue , red etc). If not you will have challenge to go over like trees, bunker or water. Finally the green are fast and uneven. You need to carefully read the green.

In conclusion it is a golf course if you want to see where you are in you improvements.

Course in great shape

Course is in great shape. I have however noted 3 or 4 women box tee that were sandy.

Staff was exceptionally agreable and pleasant. If this course was easier (for me), I would play it more :)
