Overall nice

Nice course, but after spending $65 I don’t think there should be an additional charge for the gps system.

Fun course with amazing scenery

The course is beautiful and the holes are challenging and fun. I am a novice golfer, at best, and was able to play well and challenge myself from the white tees. The carts are nice. There is no driving range, but there is a chip/putt area and some warm up nets. The clubhouse is clean and accommodating. The staff is friendly. The conditions are very wet right now and they are doing maintenance on some areas to remedy this. But the layout and scenery make up for any bald spots. The price is reasonable. I'll be going back.

I loved the layout of the course. A couple of holes are tricky, after playing one time you will remember where to lay up. Course is well maintained.

Like no other

This course is unbelievable it has fairways that funnel between sides of the mountain and drops in elevation. One par 3 your tee shot takes longer to fall down to the green than it takes to travel distance. Just so pretty.

Great course very very poor staff

Staff was very rude. Bad attitude and wouldn’t even look at us when we were trying to talk. Poor manners. Would never come back only because of the rude staff.

Consideration

While we did enjoy playing our first outing of the year, we were very disappointed in the staff and facility’s offerings. It was busy but no food on site aside from vending machine fare. Was told they didnt expect the traffic. Then told to hurry up even though there were no golfers behind us.

Great layout full of slope.

Great mountain course with awesome elevation changes. Played course end of January 2020 and course was extremely wet. We had the whole course to ourselves so pace of play couldn't have been any better. Will definitely return to play again.

Great fun

I played unbelievably well. Was it because of the course layout? No (although it was dope). I was so at peace with my mind, I didn’t even care what I shot. Beautiful, mind blowing scenery (coming from a midwestern). I tied the best score of my life which was a 77. Highly recommend!!!
