One of my favorite courses
It's in very good shape all around,...greens, bunkers, fairways, etc...the carts have course layout and distances, the cart path is not busted up...
I think this is a tuff course, which I also like (and hate....lol). Good landing spots...make sure u hit the safe areas or there will be trouble.

Better than expected
The reviews were pretty good so I thought I would check it out. A very pretty course, not easy, even from senior tees. It's in real good shape, the Greendale pretty true, med speed. Quite enjoyable.

Great Course
Loved playing here. The range had grass to hit off which was great for warming up and greens to hit into. The course had a fun layout and the greens on the course were rolling well and consistent.

Nice course
While we waited on every hole, total time was 4-1/2 hours which I guess is the norm. The course is in nice shape, greens were good albeit a few with some patches of sand. A lot of fairly narrow fairways so being able to hit it straight is beneficial. We got a deal for $46 per player all in so well worth that price.

A decent public course
They’ve improved the course some over the last 5 years. Greens were quick but also had some damage.
