1st time

1st time ever golfing. From what I was told about the adding the golf cart when you arrive, the price was for 2 was $30+ but if I say it’s for 1 it’s like $5… why???

Other than the arm and a leg pricing on the golf cart, it was fun.

Perfect weather

Long wait times

Tee times are not honored. I had to start by waiting for two groups ahead of me. I was waiting for every hole. Not a bad course for the money, but no driving range is a deal breaker for me if I can't warm up before starting.

Tee box is like hitting off the parking lot

Needs major maintenance and the Tee box have to be fixed. Layout is great and play was very slow at 5pm on a Saturday night.
