Wolves and Sheep

Booked this round online expecting to pay the invoice price. When we got to the pro shop they added a local tax to the round of an extra $6.00 per player, If you are a tourist they hit you with a out of state tax. This is reminder that when you're the sheep and local wolves take a vote on whats for dinner..... It's you. The employees there are grumpy ( cause they work for the County) go figger. We have played at privately own courses and the employees are friendly and helpful.

Just talking to a brick wall, but please, next time you think that a goverment has a solution to a problem. think about the misery that the solution will cause others. good course, good weather, sad employees,

Good value course

Staff was friendly and pace of place was great for our group of 2. Course was in decent shape. Greens rolled pretty well. This course was really close to our hotel so we figured we would give it a shot and we were both glad we did. You may lose some balls if you struggle to find fairways off the tee but at least you won’t hit somebody’s house or cars. Plenty of places to pee in the woods along the course if you have a few too many beers

Know your golfers!!

We played this course on the last day of our trip south. The front 9 was very, very slow with a senior couple and an inexperienced couple. We waited on every hole to play and then when we finished the 9th - the Marshall said to us “ you are behind schedule pick up the pace of play”. I’m not sure if it was because we were 4 women OR if he thought we were slowing everything down BUT we were not happy. The group ahead of us quit after 9 holes and surprise, surprise - we finished the back 9 in 1 hour and 40 minutes - not bad for 4 women!! Respect and an apology would have been nice!!

Fun course

This course was fun to play. Very friendly staff. Only issue was the snack bar was closed early so we could not get anything to eat or drink at the turn at 5:00. However, the guy in the pro shop got us something to drink. Great service.
