Always great greens

I personally play this course often due to the consistent,perfectly rolling greens and fun course layout. The greens are always consistent from the first hole to the 18th . Huge prompts to the superintendent .. all of the cart people are super friendly and helpful .. thanks again for your great work .. 👍🏼

Over priced

The course was fine for 50. not the 111. I paid. Greens were in good shape but bunkers were mostly unplayable. I enjoyed playing, just not worth the price.

Municipal Course Condition

Course conditions were sub-par. Cost should have been $85.00-$95.00. No driving range. Staff were very helpful. Pace of play was slow due to frost delay.

Nice starter course

Wide fairways with lots of bunkers. Bunkers not maintained too well. Delayed start due to frost, pace was slow initially, but picked up after 5th hole. Greens were good.

The course was in excellent condition for the fairways and the greens however there needs to be a lot of work done i the sand traps as most of them are hard packed .... Also more attention needed to the perifferal landscaping as it has been neglected over the years

Staff were extremely friendly and helpfull

From the start, staff stood out, very hslpfull and friendly. It was a little cool this morning, on check in the staff representative went to the kitchen and brought us a hot coffee, and said no charge, enjoy your round. Even though we had a frost delay, the Greens were incredible. We would play again.

Extremely poor condition

Bunkers were clay, not sand and had gras growing in them. Much of the course had brown or no grass. Greens were were good.

Aesthetic is very poor.
