Unmowed greens and fairways

I paid in advance, then found out that the cart had to remain on the cart path. With the cart path far from fairways and greens, it was a lot of extra walking. One guy in my group had to quit after 9 holes as he couldn't take all the extra walking. Fairways and greens were looking good, but both needed to be cut shorter.

Terrible day

The weather was great and the course layout was so great. After paying I was told to use cart path only. The biggest problem is that cart path is not close to greens or fairways. I was told driving on dirt and rocky area was not allowed. A player in my group had to quit after 9 holes when he paid for 18 because he physically could not handle all the walking. There was no posting of cart path only before I paid.

Just re-opened from over seeding

I enjoy this course greatly. The staff is always very friendly. Many improvements have been made and others are in the works so the course will only keep getting better. They just re-opened from over seeding so it was CPO and the tees and greens were quite shaggy. But everything is very green! These conditions are completely expected at this point in the season.

Nice course

It’s overseed time, but course was in better shape than the last few we have played in the same price range. Course layout is nice and pace of play was great. Staff, drink cart and snack shop were all excellent. Will play again.

Always a great play

I always enjoy playing here. Challenging and very friendly staff. Course is a little dry in fairways for over seeding and greens slightly long but roll nice. I really like the challenge of this course. Would play here again and again.

Great price.

The price was very reasonable and the course had nice greens but the fairways were brown but still had grass. It was nice to see water on a course for the hazards. The staff was friendly and the pace of play was great, no one really out there likely due to the heat, we teed off at 130pm.

It looks like they are starting to put some money into course improvements, but they have a LONG way to go. This course was and could be very nice, but it will take a LOT of work and money to do it.
