Awesome Time

Had a blast, Played 2 rounds back to back. Course was a lot of fun. The staff was great Andy & Matt in particular.

Course is in pretty good shape. Greens are fair speed and not a lot of bounce from chip shots which I feel to be great. I will be returning

Sand is good and bad!

Course is normally very dry due to sandy soils. Unfortunately this time around the greens had been cored and sanded, making putting a bit like the beach! I am exaggerating, but it was a bumpy and sandy day on the greens! The course is forgiving and fun to play and the staff were exceptional.

Good Course at a Great Price for the Weekend Golfer

The staff here is very friendly and accommodating. We arrived late after getting delayed in the tunnel and the starter still found a way to get us on the course with almost no wait. There is no range here so it’s probably best to get here early and stretch and warm up.

The fairways are very good however, the greens are extremely slow. It’s a thicker cut of grass and it takes some time getting accustomed to it. The good thing is that the practice green is equal to the greens on the course so practicing ahead of time should help.

It’s not a long course as the tips (green tees) are only 5800 yards. You can use your driver but this course gives you a chance to work on other clubs. The par 3 distances vary from ~125 yards to ~ 185 from what I recall and the course offers a variety of holes.

I highly recommend playing this course. It’s not the most challenging but can jump up and bite you if you’re not careful.

Once is enough

This course was poorly maintained and the greens were like shag carpet. I left after 6 holes of play because it wasn't worth my time. I won't be back.

Well Maintained

Arrived early, starter allowed us to go off almost immediately, 30 minutes before booked tee time. All bar a handful of tee boxes are in good condition and those not so good we’re certainly playable without distraction from driving. Fairways had plenty of grass, revealing care and maintenance was being undertaken. Greens were mostly very good with a couple that needed a cut. Overall, a very enjoyable course to play.

I played as a single at 7:00 and had a great time. Any group I caught up to offered for me to play with them or play through. Great place for the money! Pro shop, starter and other golfers were great!
