Best golf day!

From the first step on the course -till the last putt everything was first class.

The price was excellent. The rich history of the course was informative. And it was the best 4 hours in a day. Great location - great set up - great staff -the list goes on.

Rough Shape

Course was in bad condition. Greens had a lot of bare spots. Bunkers are awful (dirt, not sand. Some were mud, though it hasn't rained in weeks.) Fairways were very hard.

Course is decent for the money you pay. Staff is not the greatest when it comes to friendly customer service. Rude old grumpy old men.

OK Ciurse, Slow Play

The course was fine, the pace of play glacial. Plus, there was a single behind us who kept hitting into us. Need the marshals to move slow groups up.

Course is certainly good value

The course layout is good, not too difficult but not easy either.

The greens and fairways were in good condition with the tee boxes a bit ragged, but not too bad.

The course staff were friendly, helpful and attentive.

A good discount from GolfNow made it extremely good value and even without , it was good for the average golfer and very fairly priced.

Enjoyable round

This is not a highly marketed course, but honestly it’s in better shape than some of the big name courses. It’s a good opening round for you golf weekend. Greens were fast and true. It’s not Caledonia or Barefoot, but I think most golfers can and will enjoy it.

Played before afternoon flight

Course was super convenient. Across from airport. Played 18 and then headed to airport. Course was priced fair. Greens rolled well but course overall could use a little tlc. Scottish/Australian starter/ranger was the best. Very informative and kept pace moving. Will be back.
