Better Than Expected!

This is a fun course to play! It is not Augusta National but it isn't pretending to be either. I don't understand why there were so many previous negative reviews. Maybe that is what helped suppress my expectations but I would have no problem playing this course 1-2 times a month.

Fun and gets the job done

Good layout and even better greens for a municipal course. Would definitely recommend for a quick round. Super fun!

Greens improved

This round had better grass on the greens. Still some bare spots, I think from wildlife damage (Geese) but better than a couple weeks ago.

Currently in rough shape

We've been playing this course for a long time, and right now it's really, really rough. I don't know if it's just the in-between season, but everything needs work. Can't recommend it right now.

Get what you pay

Anyone who knows or has played this course before, knows...you get what you pay. This is a course to mess aroudn on, have fun and play after work. The conditions are abysmal, and the greens are about as uneven as a plinko board. However, Golf Now does not inform you the course "closes" at 6:30. We took the last two tee times (4:52pm, and 5pm cause we had 6 players and didn't want to slow people down.

We flew through the first 9. After the first 9, the clubhouse called us in and made snarky comments about, "Not letting a 6 some out" where we explained...that's why we did the last two tee times. Also accused us of only playing for 9 holes, where we pointed out we paid for 18. He then said, good luck you have 10 minutes left. Since when do courses close before twilight? Again, Golf Now does not warn you about this course closing before twilight.

Course conditions were expected, the rather rude and strict cutoff times were a little disappointing. Even for a place like this.

Do not waste your money… wouldn’t play for free!

Course is highly negated and staff is rude. Needs a full makeover top to bottom. Back in the day it was a nice executive course and now it’s the worst course I’ve played ever.

Awful City Park

Quite possibly the worst course I ever played, this is like a city park with a poorly maintained golf course.

We were treated extremely poorly by an extremely rude gentleman that was running the course. I will never play this course again and will make sure none of my coworkers, customers or friends ever have the displeasure of making the same mistake.

Cheap and worth it

Short course. Mostly Par 3’s.

As a “scramble golfer” I hit alot of shots off the dirt.
