Course is gorgeous

We played this 2 weeks in a row. Great experience. The course is immaculate. 1st time we had the course virtually to ourselves. Last time it was backed up on the back nine. On the 18th hole there were 20 people to tee off.

The staff is great. We ha d a wonderful time both rounds.

Reviews helped detail the experience

Carts new with UBS charging and GPS

Potential congestion at first tee keeps putting warm up unlikely for some. Requirement to to walk to it and it’s small positioned right of the first tee, no chipping and no talking…reduced fun!

Many holes unfair around the greens and tricked up from being short in distance. Not sure I would say the vista was that impressive.

Paid the 1-player hot deal fee of $78 total for a 8:20am tee off, and would say I enjoyed the individuals I met and the overall experience. I would easily improve my score (49-43) if I returned but playing it once was sufficient to call it good! Any 11 handicap familiar can break 90, I should have on the initial round but took a 10 on hole 3, the par 5 right side bunkers have steep walls so don’t try to hit it out long. Hit your sand wedge out and reduce the PAIN!

Good Course But Tricky

An interesting course requiring accuracy and tee shot control. Loved the Par 4's and Par 3's, but some Par 5's had quirky design and some blind shots. Fairways and grees in great shape. Would love to play again and would play several tee shots differently.

Decent short course

This course is interesting and has some good holes but also some oddly short and unusual holes with hidden hazards. It was in good shape and greens were good. There could be better signage directing new players to the next hole because in some cases it's not obvious as you drive thru neighborhoods. The long drive in from the 18th green is also confusing.

Tricked up layout

Course is a bit tricked up with many blind shots. Some holes had construction on them but were not identified when we teed off. Lost a ball on number 2 because I hit into a significant hidden construction area just left of the 150 marker. Fairways were spotty in places as well as tee boxes. Greens were in good shape overall.

Challenging Course

Scenic layout with lots of elevation change that lead to several blind shots. It would have been helpful to have a course regular in our group. There is a large construction area on #2 out of view on the left. A few of the early greens were in rough shape but later they improved and all were quite fast. Fairways were in good shape. We had fun and would certainly go back.

Poor overall maintenance

I like the diversity of the course. Tee boxes and a couple of greens are in very poor condition. Overall collateral grounds are not very well maintained….trash, broken fences and course had several areas fenced off/repair…2nd hole particularly bad. Too many other good courses to enjoy.

Everything except pace of play was good. There was a Marshall but the round still came in at 5 hours.

First time impressions

Some of the fastest greens I have ever played. Downhill putts can be positively scary. Course conditions were good overall. Some fairways were muddy in places possibly from the rain 3 days before. I enjoyed the variety of the holes and the varied shots required. All the staff members very very friendly. My only complaint was the pace of play. The front nine took 2 hours 10 minutes. But, because of the short finishing holes and other golfers with grandiose ideas about their abilities, the last 3 holes took and hour to play.

We will return now that we have a little local knowledge

The four of us really enjoyed the round but, as first timers to this course, local knowledge would have been helpful. This is a well groomed course with some great challenges and we will go back.

Best

I played with my grandson. This is the finest course we have played

We play somewhere every Wed. The staff was great. We finished at dusk. The course was spectacular with unbelievable views and challenges on the course. Can't wait to find a deal to play it again.
