Great Value, Helpful staff and fun course

This course winds through some natural areas with very few houses overlooking the course. Greens were in perfect condition. At $45 the very best value for a fun and moderately challenging course.

Nice course In better shape

Haven't played here in a couple years. It was a little rough back then, but the new owners have turned it around.

Greens were in great shape just a little fluffy and slow, but that's because of recent rains so obviously they couldn't mow or roll them. I would go back and play again.

Rough around the edges.

This course may be under new management and improving, but I don’t have any prior experience to measure it against. The greens were pretty consistently slow . I don’t think they had been mowed that day. And they could’ve used it. As for the rest of the course much of it felt like it was under Repair.

Course is ok

My only complaint is that the distance markers on the course are poor. Some holes have the markers, some don’t. Its difficult to figure out the yardages from the brochure they give you.

Much improved

I golfed here a couple of years ago and swore that I would never go back due to the condition of the course. After reading several recent reviews, I decided to give it another try. The greens are in much better shape, and the Fairways have also improved, but there is still a lot of work to do.

Excellent conditions

When looking at the course map on The Grint, the course looked beat up & worn down, but recent reviews said all good things about the recent conditions and boy were they right! Had a blast & shot well!

Good course

Staff were terrific!. Starter and Rangers were on point. Cart Lady was frequent. Conditions were good for this time of year. Will play again. Only problem. The bathroom was filty. Get a Biohazzard suit on before entry. Nasty prior to start and nasty at the turn. Find a tree.

Slowish

Elements of the course are still needing some work but overall it looks and plays quite nice. Pace was a bit slow although may have been due to a very slow 4 ball a few holes in front. Front 9 was 1 hour 20 mins, but back nine was close to 2 hours for 2 ball on a midweek afternoon? That said we would play again though.

First Time - Liked the Course

Great value for the money. The course is challenging. Pace of play was good. We had a twosome in front of us who held things up but it wasn't the course's fault. Course in good condition compared to others we have recently played. Will be playing there again soon.
