SLLLOOOOWWWW

It took a me 2 hours just to make it to the 5th hole. Absolute waste of time they just push people out. They let a guy teeing off at 430 in front of me when I was at 410. No etiquette.

Poops are everywhere

Poops are everywhere in every greens, tee box and every hole fairway, too much poops and brownie fairway with bump hole. Low maintenance low quality golf course.

I booked from Golfnow and We are played here today. We are all 4 people today. Proshop lady ask 15 dollar each person for riding cart. So we pay 60 dollar extra. That was so feel bad and they look like cheat money from customer. Sometimes they didn’t ask sometimes they ask money. So bad ugly monster proshop people. Course fairway green tee box everywhere was bad bad bad. Lots of Duck poops on every green. So much disappointed. Never play here again.

Holiday 18

Pace or play was fast, though we teed off before 7am and that likely helped. Greens and tees were adequate but the fairways are in rough shape. The course layout needs an update.
