No food!!!

Went to get a hot dog on the turn. None!!

Went to get some crackers, candy bar or anything. Said the snack lady was closed up!

All at about 2:00!! Won’t be back for a while. I thought by law, you had to have food available when your serving drinks??

River Wilderness fun

The course as always was fun. It was a shame that there was still some hurricane damage on and around the course. The greens had also been punched two weeks prior to my round. But overall I would play the course every other week.

Rough course

The course has a great layout. It was fun to play in spite of the conditions. Greens had just been aerated, but that’s understandable. The worst conditions on the course seem to be in the rough and in the areas around the greens. Tea boxes were decent.. I get the impression that this was a very nice course years ago, but they probably don’t have the funds to keep the condition of the course up to snuff. We will probably play it again, because the green fee was appropriate for the course. Nice people everywhere, and a really good restaurant.

Horrible condition for prime season

This course was in a horrible condition, giving the environment of season. The grains were freshly punched and not manicure in a way to promote good green health. The fairways were rough and not taken care of. We paid $30 per person around for this golf course it’s worth maybe 10 at best. The best part of our round was the weather

Nice course but need a ranger to move things along

Nice course, new carts with nice tools including Bluetooth BUT they had no ranger and this foursome ahead of us were at a snails pace and it took 2.5 just to get thru the front nine! We were so frustrated that we just left and went to the gun range to blow off steam. Very disappointing

They had just aerated and put sand on the greens, but give it a couple of weeks. It should be in real good shape.

Still under cleanup

Course should be closed until it’s up to playing status . Rough is so thick you lose any ball not on fairway. 9 holes still blocked off from hurricane so you may only play back 9. Greens punched and full of sand .wish golf now had a way of letting customers know when things are like this . I’d say it’s pretty important to know before you spend your money that half the course is closed and the greens are punched . In short it was nice to be outside but it was a total waste of money . The guy working counter was very friendly and so was the cart guy. Call before you book there is my advice and ask if greens are healed and front 9 is back open .

Back nine was closed due to huricane cleanup

Pro shop said they notified GolfNow that back nine was closed but I was unaware when I booked our foursome.

Most local courses are struggling with hurricane cleanup but are mowing the fairways and rough. The front nine has not been mowed making it very difficult to find any ball not in the fairway.

Greens were in pretty good shape but they played slow.Bunkers need to be refreshed as well.
