Good pace of play!

I play this course a lot as a single. Always get good partners. Wide open course with quick pace during the week. Firm fairways and the ball is going to roll!

Hit Em Straight

The course is challenging and has a good mix of holes, some long some short... The greens are always nice, but have very suttle breaks... Fun to play, just make sure you hit it straight off the tees...

Good shape and value

The only reason I'm not going with 5 stars is the terrain being basically carved from a flat field. Maintenance is excellent for this time of year (Sept), tee to green. The total number of brown spots found I can count on one hand.

Employee Harassment

If you want to be harassed by Mather employee Josh Winkler play here. He harassed us on how we should be playing golf . He also told my 75 year old grandfather that his cart was too close to the green when it was well over 30 yards away!!! My grandfather is a veteran who fought for this country and is disabled. Needless to say it was a great course until we were harassed by Mr. Winkler acting like he owns the course. We will not be playing here again.

It’s not a resort

Been awhile since I last played here. Greens were in good shape, most people fixing their divots. The sand traps could use a little work, tee boxes could use work also, level and mow. The fairways were in decent shape, nothing too terrible. Overall for the price it was worth playing. I like playing different courses and this one I hadn’t played in some time. I will play it again.
