Can't get any better for the money!

Ever since I started playing General Old in 2006, its always been the same: affordable golf. Really nothing to complain about. Anything left or right of the fairway is trouble, although not by design; dirt roads and dried swamps surround the facility. As long as you keep it in the fairway, you'll enjoy your day out. I've played it three times in the last month and its in as good a shape as you're gonna see it. The greens are running smooth and the fairways are the usual light green with occasional yellow. A great fit for the average golfer looking to get in a quick round close to home.

Great course, grumpy snack bar lady.

Over all, a great place to swing the clubs. the price is very fair. Newer carts are a + and course seems to be in really good shape now that plugs have filled in on the greens. The old man was right, "Everything breaks to the runway". Only issue that i had. oddly enough, was with the snack bar lady. Just looking for a couple of dogs to settle the liquor belly, and was gruffly informed the grill was closed. This was at 3:20 in the afternoon. Assumed they would be open till at least 4-5:00. Fritos and cookies it is, I guess.

course in terrible condition

This course was somewhat of a disappointment. The fairways were in terrible shape. The greens were bumpy and slow. The actual design of the course was not bad but needs to be maintained better.

Well taken care of, nice views, fast greens

You can't beet this course for the money, I have played courses of this caliber for the twice the amount. It plays long from the blues and there are some fun T-shots. The greens are always plush but still fairly fast.

Fun Course to play

It was nice course and maintained well. People around were very friendly. We got stuck in traffic due to an accident and were a little late, and the host and other golfers were more than accommodating. No one held up anyone, and we all had fun.

Nice course

We had a nice time golfing on this course. The greens were well maintained and the course was challenging enough to make it fun but not frustrating. The pace was pretty good for a Sunday afternoon. My only complaint is that they don't allow outside food and drinks, yet not once did anyone come around so we could buy some water or food. Despite this, I would golf at this course again.

wide fairways, muni course, some greens still have signs of aeration, bunkers are dirt

I like the wide fairways on most holes. Greens were pretty good but some had some weird breaks because of aeration (say 3 weeks ago ?). Bunkers are dirt so impossible to keep ball close on short side. Good time of year to play because valley has less smog and good views.

great value, but staff is rude

Great price to golf a pretty decent course. But the staff is very rude
If you reserved a special rate they deem you suspicious as you might try to tee off ahead of your scheduled tee time.

Fair Test - Beautiful Greens

This course has a simple but challenging layout. It has a little of everything to make for a fun day. Hit good shots and you have a chance to score. Hit bad shots and you could find yourself in a world of trouble.

Good course. Some holes play long.

The course was in good condition, the greens run good & in good condition. The course has no fairway bunkers or not much for water hazards. It plays long from the Blue T's, good course for the grip & rip long bomber. Great value thru golfnow.

Okay Course

The Tee Boxes were satisfactory, the fairways are in good shape and when I played the greens were a little tore up because of sand being tracked from the bunkers and people not fixing the greens. Maybe it was the group in front of us or maybe it was standard for this course. The price was good though so I'll probably play there again even if I have to clean up my line before I putt.

You get what you pay for.

For $17 weekday twilight with cart, not a bad deal. The course is in decent enough condition, fairways and greens are for the most part green and manicured. On many holes, if you're not on fairway, you're hitting off dirt. Not much rough to speak of. Bunkers are not really sand here either, but hard pack dirt. There is just one little pseudo water hazard on the back 9. Many mature trees line fairways and no homes are around the course. Most holes are pretty simplistic in design. They actually have a pretty nice club house for a low budget course. The only beef I had on this round was the low budget rift raft on the course. I was playing as a single and ran into a 4 sum on 9th tee playing very slow and well below my skill level (took one guy 3 swings to get 150 yards). He asked if I wanted to join them? I asked him if he was getting something at the turn, I would sneak past them at the then. He said "no" and drove off. Followed them for 3 holes before I had enough and went around them on 12 and went back and played that hole after 18. Another single I ran into on the course said this tends to be a problem being you have so many uneducated low budget golfers playing here. So course would benefit greatly from a Marshal around. All in all, if you're low on dough and want to get a round in, is not a bad place to play.

The course is relatively simple, narrow, and or long depending on the hole.

Good course & fairly quick greens that were in great shape. It has been hot out here for some time now, so the fairways do have some dried out areas; otherwise I would have given it a "Pristine" rating. Tee boxes were also in great shape. I enjoyed playing there & will do so again here in the near future.
