Very short not playable course

Very short course jammed into housing development. No par 5's, only a couple of par 4's, and the rest are all short 3's. Very slow pace of play. I would rate the course as a low end standard public city golf course. Definitely not worth it. Best suited for beginners where you're not concerned about how long round takes.

Fairways were all hardpan and very little grass to hit off. Lots of tee boxes were a little sloped and not completely flat.

Staff was pretty friendly.

enjoyable round of golf

The course was in fairly good condition for the wintertime. It is a good short course, which is fine for me as I don't keep score. I come out to smoke a cigar and have a couple beers. If you want a challenging course, this is not for you.

Nice practice for the short game.

It is a great time to get out and hit a bunch of wedges and 9,8, 7, 6 iron shots.

I like the whole experience. The out by 4pm when the sun is up for another 30 plus minutes is a little heavy handed.

Enjoy practicing my short game here and will be playing the track again soon.
