playing in a cow pasture

simple review - like playing in a cow pasture!

Rack rate is $70 a round, thank you Golf Now for a $20 discount. With that said, $20 was WAY too much considering the condition of this course.

Tee boxes and fairways had a LOT of bare spots. Greens look like they had fungus all over them.

Would NOT recommend and will NOT go back - ever!

This course is awful

This is hands downs the worst course I have ever played. The tee boxes & greens were in the worst condition I have ever seen. Do not play this course right now. I will be taking further action to get my 60$ back.

NOT WORTH THE MONEY

Booked as Hot Deal on Golf Now for $50 versus regular rate of $70. Thought this might be a deal but nope!!

Tee boxes in terrible condition, many bare spots all over the course. Had the look and feel of a $20 muni, cattle field. Definitely not going back!

Very slow play

Have played here several times but there was a 5 some of ladies holding up at least 7 or more groups. No ranger and a call to the pro shop did not help. Also no water on the course on a very hot day.
