Great courses!

Love Craft Farms courses, facilities, and people. Best practice facilities in the area. The courses are in fantastic shape. Greens are not too fast and cut just right. I enjoy practicing there just as much if not more than playing, because Lord knows I need the practice! Staff is great and very professional, but not too serious. Overall a great experience. Will be back many more times.
