Great condition

Course was in great shape and greens were very fast but true, don’t be above the hole as it was very difficult to stop the ball from running by 4-6 feet. I will play again and stay below the hole

Great Golf course worth playing

I've actually played here about three times in the last 3 weeks and I will say that this course is one of the best around I actually travel about 40 mi to play it. The staff is excellent the conditions are really good. It is expensive but so aren't most good things. I always get here an hour ahead because the driving range practice range chipping range and putting green are well worth it and all these are included in your rate.

High quality but has been better

I have always enjoyed this course. The green are in great shape. The fairways were a bit rougher than historically as it appears to have large sections where it’s just a divot mine field. The staff was great and welcoming as were the two members that I was paired with. It is pricey compared to other options but probably there is value to be received for the extra money.

Too Expensive for the. Value

The course is nice, but at $180 a round for the public, it's wayyyy overpriced.

Beautiful course

I can see why this course is highly rated. It’s an absolutely beautiful course with great greens bunkers and fairways. And all the staff that we met were absolutely awesome Unfortunately for us the day we played we were sandwiched between two foursome’s as the other twosome canceled. So it was about a five hour round for us. We met at the cart girl at the starters shack and told her we would be looking forward to seeing her out on the course. Unfortunately, we never did. We couldn't even get a beer to help with the slow play.

We will play there again, most likely in the slow season..

Overall, great course just a slow day for us.

Best public course in the area

Played 10-18 & 19-27. Everything is perfect, tees, fairways and the greens are some of the fastest I’ve seen. Very roomy feels and looks like a private course. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The practice facilities are exceptional. After the round had dinner at the terrace and the food and service were amazing.
