Nice course on a windy day

Our foursome played on April 15. Unfortunately the wind was a significant factor on this day. Although we loved the course layout, there is some work to be done to improve the course rating. The bunkers were unplayable and the tee blocks had varying conditions.

Course needs much attentioin

Course needs irrigation and much maintenance. Tee boxes uneven and some bare. Fairways are thinning and has many areas that are void of grass. Bunkers are more like brown dust instead of sand. After a two hour rain, most bunkers were full of water and unplayable. Greens are 95% poa annua. Staff was very friendly and cooperative. I would not recommend this course until it undergoes some renovation and maintenance.

Whispering P.

Fine course. Some of the greens are struggling and need attention. Other than that the course is fine. Played on a Saturday, so rather slow play but still nothing out of the ordinary.

Will come back.

Bad greens

The greens were patchy, in poor condition.

Putting was difficult due to the bumpy greens.

Greens are in terrible shape. Given that the club has effective date to close and do significant upgrades, decreased rates should be offered.

Washrooms on course are terrible.

Good Value and friendly staff

Played here for the first time and staff was very helpful and friendly. The greens seem small and some need work but overall a great place to get a round in for a reasonable price.
