Course is very open

Course is very fun and open. Greens look tough but not as much break as they look. Very makable. Not to fast not too slow. Most holes are dogleg right so fit my driver very well.

Wettest course I have ever played and I’m 51 and play over 100 rounds per year. Fairways were an absolute swamp. I understand it rained the night before, but as wet as these fairways were there should have been no play that day. My shoes were literally ruined. We kept playing, of course, because of the $100 plus greens fees that we had already invested but there is no way, when you can’t even find a single dry spot on fairways, that we should have played that day. Felt like a money grab. Its was literally a swamp out there….

Great course!

The course was great minus weather at the time we were playing. Additionally, the staff specifically Paola and Kevin were helpful and accommodating with the change in our tee times.

Staff is top notch

From the moment i got out of my truck the staff could not have been more nice. They let me know the cotton course had just been sanded so they let me switch over to the cypress

course. From tee to green the cypress course was in great shape. I look forward to coming back in September and playing with some friends.

Good golf for the money

They did pair us with another pair of golfers the only reason I don’t like that is they were by far better than us and we more than likely slowed them down. Overall good course
