Waste of Money

Don’t play this course. They should pay you to play it. Everything was terrible. Green so slow, long shaggy and too much crap on the some of them to putt on. Fairways were mostly dirt. Driving range was a dirt lot. Range balls all over the course.

I cannot believe how bad this course was/is! With some TLC, this course could be a gem. Sorry to see it in such bad shape.

Needs upkeep

Whoever owns this course needs to put some money into it. The cart paths are in terrible shape. The pace of play is slow. I had a twosome in front of me and could care less that there were people waiting behind 5hem. There are no Marshall’s or starters and no beverage cart.

Easy to get in, Cheap and it shows….

You kind of get what you pay for and with PV You need to expect lack luster conditions. There were a lot of dry ground, where it’s not possible to hit a ball correctly, and if you end up on that area, you’re not going to get better by practicing on it. The greens vary quite a bit and the grass was high on the green. There was a lot of sprinkler or watering problems, where they were massive swampy areas and lot of holes in the course.

Paying $30 a person, I of course don’t expect a TPC level green keeping program, but it should be better and I shouldn’t have to deal with mud, large wet areas, and super dry areas. It’s run down, but cheap.

Great course

This course has improved so much since last year. We enjoy it because it’s easy, relaxed and inexpensive. The greens are the best I’ve seen them with the exception of this week as it seems they mowed them down and had so much sand iyou never knew where the ball would end up. Always an adventure on the greens here but I love to play it and practice my short game Always come back

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.
