As good as it gets around here

Love this course and the people. The work gone into this course over the last little bit has been tremendous This course is a jewel Now for the bad. It doesn’t matter if there’s 20 cars in the lot or a hundred the pace is always painfully slow. No rangers to move the 6 hour guys along. Plan on packing a lunch. Other than that. 5 stars.

No raincheck for sick 4th

I called to book a tee time, and was instructed that I could only book tee times through golfnow. I booked a 10:50 tee time 3/26 (off season, wide open tee sheet) for 4 players and paid $256. Morning of, our 4th called out sick. Upon arrival I requested a raincheck for paying for our 4th player, but was denied. Although I understand the 24 hour rule and the reason the course uses the service due to no shows, but I was unimpressed the course would not honor a rain check and punished those who did show up. Even after noting that a rain check would bring me back in the future, with additional paying guests, the course refused to work with me. Poor management and bad business. Fun course, wont be back.

Not bas for time of the year

Course was not bad considering the time of year and recent weather. Only thing negative was that the range was closed without any mention when booking tee time. Range time before starting round is important to myself and playing partners.
