When you buy the Hot Deal from Golf Now, their tee time is at 1:30 PM. Golf now keeps 100% of your money, and this is the tee time they control. We have nothing to do with it . We can’t allow you to jump ahead of our paying customers, That wouldn’t be fair. To solve the problem, book directly with the course like everyone else does. you can tee off earlier for pretty much the same price, and enjoy yourself without having to rush. Thanks. Tony

Good track.

Course conditions were good. The new grass was growing in well. The grass under the trees was somewhat sparse, which was expected. There was a backup on the last six holes, couldn't complete before darkness.

Terrible Customer Service!

Had a tee time scheduled for 1:24 for 3 of us. The single who had the same time asked to play ahead of us and was granted permission. We tee off and as we are leaving the tee boxes, the employee asked if I was alone and since I was, paired us up with someone as we were driving away….

Cart was in poor condition as brakes really didn’t work. As we were playing the first hole the ranger allowed a twosome to skip ahead of us to the next hole, slowing play. Employees had poor attitude and will likely never play here again.

When you buy a hot deal, you will be playing as a foursome as per Golf Now’s policy. The single golfer had your tee time and was not sent out ahead of you. You were paired on the first hole. As a hot deal customer 100% of your fees go to golf now, and 0 to the course. This is their tee time. You should really leave this negative review for golf now and not the course. We have nothing to do with hot deals. We simply have to send people off at their tee times, and we had other tee times behind you that needed to go off on time. Tony.

The course is challenging, especially from the back. Conditions were ok, but wet in a number of spots which may have been from sprinklers for the rye over seeding. We will be back...

Yes we are growing in the overseed. It’s coming in nicely. Conditions will be fantastic all winter long. We are back on our normal mowing schedule this week so everything will be fantastic at a great price. Tony
