Great Fun Layout

We play this course regularly this Winter season as the HotDeals have been great value for the product. The Staff is friendly, accommodating and kind. ProShop Scott and Mark have been so kind. The greens are in great shape and are fast. Don't be above the hole!! Bunkers need some TLC however, manageable. When it's windy the course plays quite long. The biggest "beef"; they lock up the clubhouse and Proshop at 5 pm even with lots of groups still out, so there is no place to use the restrooms. This is unacceptable and management should correct this ASAP.

First Time Playing

Totally enjoyable

First time playing this course and the experience couldn’t have been better. Everyone was super friendly and seemed to want to make sure you had a good experience. Range balls are included in the greens fee as well as a putting and chipping area. As for the course, good condition, really enjoyable layout with multiple tees to choose from. The greens were fast and true, really nice to putt on. Played in 3 hrs 45 min.

A wealth of green

Playing the course was a pleasure. Lots of green from tee box, on fairways, to greens. No excuses. The course is in great shape.

Cancelled Tee Times

Love playing here but am NOT happy about making tee times that get cancelled the day of play or the day before. Perhaps in those cases an offer of another day be complimentary and an apology issued. Monday’s and Tuesday’s tee times are the cancelled tee times!!!

The course was in good condition except for some of the tee boxes. They were not flat, lacked grass and pointing in the wrong direction.

Amazing condition very good design

Handicap: 2-6. I would recommend this course to anyone I know. Very good design. Excellent course condition when I played it. It had been raining a lot but the course held up to the rain very well in my opinion. The greens were rolling about 10.5 on the stimp meter. Yes, I own a stimp meter. The greens were pretty healthy and were medium firmness. They would hold any decent shot hit into them. The fairways were in top condition. Tee boxes too. I would play it again anytime.

On my list

The positives:

Good pace of play, Saw a ranger go by.

Greens were fast (played university the day before and they were ridiculously slow,)

Course was fun to play

Great value for the money

The negatives (which you can live with)

No cart person

Bring your own lunch

Called clubhouse that out cart battery was dying on 12, said they would send someone but we had to ride that bucking bronco all the way thru. Don’t understand that.

Why then did I recommend so highly? Pace of play and those slick greens. Had enjoyable round.

Great Greens & Layout

We have come to appreciate this course every time we play it. The staff are all friendly and welcoming. The layout is interesting and the greens are great to put on running nicely fast pace and true. The bunkers need some sand and maintenance however, overall this is a wonderfully golf course for the layout, great challenge and enjoyment.
