First Time Playing

Never playing again!

First time playing there, after finishing 6 holes in just over an hour the ranger felt the need to come out and rudely tell me and the 3 guys I was playing with that we were playing too slow cause it had been an hour and had only finished 3 holes. First off, we had finished 6 and were actually ahead of the pace we were supposed to be going at. Secondly the way he addressed it could of been better forget the fact that he didn't even have to say anything to us in the first place.

Nice course

Enjoyed the course...2 of the foursome in front was playing for first time. No rangers or course time management. I really didn't care. Still shot 78. I know if I'm slower than group behind I ALWAYS let them play through. Hopefully they will learn golf edicate. The course was on pretty good shape. Greens were smooth and quick.

Over booked

Waiting too long every hole. We paid for 18 holes the staff knowing it would be impossible to complete because they require all carts be returned by 5 o’clock, a fact they neglected to tell us till just before we headed to the first tee .

Nice layout, pleasant staff

The layout and playability were great. Pace of play was slow. We teeoff off at 12:45 and about 4:30 ranger came out and mentioned carts need to come in. We were at hole #15. Pathetic.

Perfect. If you have a deal for us, you're very welcome!

Everything was perfect.

Last year, was our first experience and desappointed with the staff experience.

But this year, what a great change. Couldn't ask better and will recommend this place to anyone.
