First Time Playing

Great course very tough

First time playing here was pretty cool from the time you enter the club house area the range and the course itself is fantastic very challenging course with great views on the back.nine. if you cam get a chance to ever play this course it would be well worth it I was fortunate to get a $150 round on golf now for the round on Christmas day.

Poor tee sheet management = Greedy pricing

I've played this track several times and it was in pretty decent shape fairway wise. But the bunkers had almost no sand and no body raked them after being in them.

The greens were pocked marked from nobody fixing ball marks.

The starter told us that the nines were running at 2:20 meaning there was no way for our group to finish the round in daylight. Meaning we should have been charged twilight rate but were not.

Great condition and pace of play

Thought the course was in great shape for a winter round. Greens were firm and rolled nice. Tonight to hold greens as they were firm, rough was longer but not too penal. Overall a really nice course for the money.

Starfire worth playing

Staff was great and the course was in pretty good shape, considering it was raining the night before and in the morning. But, overall course played really good.

First Time Playing

Good Course-Good Time

So overall, I would come back here. Staff in Pro Shop, cart loading staff, and Dick (first tee ambassador) were top notch. Course was in very good shape. Greens rolled slower than I thought they would. Position off tee is rewarded and some well planted trees obstruct approach. First off, played in just over three hours. Would play again, the bummer is cost of play for this time of year which is high.
