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.

Very sad to see it like this

I have heard such amazing things about this course. I was so disappointed with the conditions of the course. Tee boxes were closed, they had temporary tee boxes much further up which most of the time would take the best parts of the holes away. IE going from a dog leg right over water to just a straight shot no water, shortening holes by 50 yards+ in many cases. On top of that, the temporary, tee boxes were just dirt, it was harder to hit out of the tee boxes than out of the rough. It’s such a shame, because you can tell the course was once a beautiful and tough course. The fairways were in good shape, but once you get to the green, plenty of dead patches and bumps. Green speeds were also extremely inconsistent ranging from super quick to super slow. Overall, I probably won’t be going back again unless there is a huge overall.

Bad conditions and rude manners.

The person in charge of the golf carts was very rude, showed disrespect and very bad manners with us.

Hot and long day

The staff was very friendly but the course was muddy and they build the regular boxes new...so you have to play a very short course...

In front of us were two guys who played so slow that it takes more than 4 and 1/2 h instead of max 3h...we ask to let us throu...even the Ranger talked with them...but no way....some guys dont know anything...

Golf course very poor condition

The golf course was in very pior conditions! All 18 tee are provisional and fairways was very bad and the greens was terrible. The app Golf Now should require fields to put the conditions of the field in detail before payment!

Temporary tee boxes on every hole. Some of the greens were in very rough shape. The quality of the course for the price they charge for 18 holes isn’t even close to being okay.

Horrible Shape

The course is in really bad shape. All the tees are temporary and moved up. Golfnow has no information about it and are charging regular rate. Golfnow is also not willing to do anything about it. Disappointing experience

It was $98 to play this course during the summer and the tee boxes and greens were in bad shape.not to mention the carts have no gps and the course is poorly marked for yardage. We won’t be back

Fun course

This is a challenging course. Really fun to play with a great layout I def recommend to you lay just be sure to give yourself 5 1/2 to 6ths to play. Over booked the last few times I’ve played and super slow pace of play. We had to wait on every hole for multiple groups to finish.
