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.

Not as good as it used to be

Sad to see the course slip in its condition as it was great the last time I played in March. They have a couple of unrealistic par 3 holes with greens that don't hold as the slopes are just silly to force the ball off the greens.

Great Layout

This course has a fantastic layout, that can be somewhat difficult, with water coming into play on many of the holes. No GPS on the carts, but the did provide a free yardage book. Range balls were extraj$7 for about 40 balls. The course it self, was not in country club shape, but really didn't expect it to be as it is a public course. Play moved nicely throughout the round, and we finished in about 4 hours. I would likely play it again, but wouldn't put on the Must play list by any means. Staff was nice, drinks were a bit high, but in line with what you get in the area. Didn't play well, but enjoyed the day.

Dissapointed

Played here several times. Course layout is incredible, with very interesting, varied and challenging holes. Plays up to 7800 from the tips. The issue was the conditions and pace. Toos us 5 hours. Conditions were awful from the tees to the greens. Hopefully a one off or a seasonal issue. So, a great course, but conditions have to improve in order for me to return.

Monday afternoon play

Was able to get a teatime last minute on Golfnow. Their rates were very reasonable. My partner and I strolled in late and the staff was very accommodating. Don’t think that would be the case on a weekend.

Rate of play was very consistent and the course was in good shape….. The greens were faster than I recall !

Terrible pace of play and course conditions

Brutal round. Almost 3 hours for 9 holes, then walked off the course. Not to mention the greens were 75% filled with sand mixture.

Not like the good old days

There are courses in the exact same condition you can play for half the price. Only amenity they had was free bottles of water at the start of your round. Save your money and play elsewhere, this course is not what it used to be after ownership change. Not worth the money at all, course was pretty beat up. Won’t play here again

Atrocious conditions and pace of play
