Greens very inconsistent

Never know what you get when you play this course. This time, the greens were very inconsistent, some fast, some slow???? Not in great shape.

Nice Course

First time playing here and I really enjoyed it. Staff was friendly. Conditions were generally very good, although a few of the greens had some spotty missing grass but not near hole locations. Greens were a bit bumpy. I will definitely be back.

Good layout

Unique layout in a good setting. Course conditions were a little rough around the edges. Greens weren’t nearly as firm as other reviews made them out to be, held well but were bumpy/patchy and didn’t roll true. Good value for the money this time of year.

EXTREMELY SLOW PACE OF PLAY

You guys have to do something about pace of play. Either schedule accordingly or have a marshal out there.

We couldn’t finish and only made it through 13 holes because it was taking wasaaaay to long.

Please speed ip the pace.

Ready golf

Obviously, course personnel have no idea about the customer’s golf acumen. So, the rangers need to be more proactive in addressing pace of play, etiquette, and golfer behavior. Even when a group’s round takes the typical 4:10 - 4:20 hrs, it can be frustrating for a faster group that is not invited to play through.
