Great small course
It was slow for the first 4 holes then picked up. Nice executive course.
Great little course
Wasn’t in the best condition but very playable. Fun course to walk, pace was good, staff was great and price was a great value. We’ll be back.
Decent course - Clubhouse staff not so great.
Checked in for our tee time 15 minutes before our round. The lady working the front desk gave us a condescending attitude because people at a later tee time were waiting… and she stated we were “holding everything up.”
We got our cart and had roughly 10 minutes to spare before teeing off.
This is the second time the lady working the front desk has been extremely rude for us being EARLY.
The rest of the staff were great.
Poor Conditions
The course is in rough shape. Greens are mostly patchy and bumpy. Lots of bare spots in the fairways. Pace of play was pathetically slow on the front 9 ( 3 groups waiting at each tee box on every par 3 hole). Fortunately most were only playing 9 so the back 9 was actually fast. We won't be going back to this one.
Horrible Conditions
Course is in worst shape ever. We have played many times throughout the years and this time was the worse. Female starter was not friendly at all. Most players there only do 9 holes so the pace of play for 9 was really bad, back 9 was much better.
Decent exec course
Nothing spectacular but a fine souped up executive course. One par 5 and many par fours will allow most to use drivers or fairway woods. Pretty wide open. Good course to practice irons. Greens were odd mounded structures that were challenging to putt on
HORRIBLE!!!!!
This has got to be one of the worst golf courses I have ever played in my life. Just terrible. It was patchy and the staff was just terrible. I do not know how that golf course gets any business at all. It is 50 bucks to play a goat ranch. This is not an environment to play golf.
They were running behind. I think the group in front of us slid a group or two in on their tee times.
