Unfriendly

Price was low enough to make it worthwhile. Fairway are full of dead areas. Bunkers are unplayable. Maintenance staff is argumentative as well as the manager. Very unfriendly course.

Fun Course

The course was packed because of the unexpected warm weather, but the pace of play was still good and finished in 4 hours. Greens were in good condition and it was only $13 on a hot deal.

Pleased with Greens

The greens were very consistent from hole to hole. Many bunkers are in below average condition. Pace of play was 4 hours for 18 holes.

Needs work

Greens are in great shape. Fairways have too many bare spots the should be GUR. Bunkers are terrible. These problems are nothing new.

Enjoyed the course layout! The greens were better than expected. The only negative aspect of the day was slow play.

Over One Hundred Years of Playing Experience

Between the four players who played we have playing experience of over 100 years. We have played great courses and municipal courses.

Such was the quality of service, the course conditions and the pace of play, we played one hole and left the course and drove to another course. We have never left a poor review but this deserved it.

Mediocre Course

Good value for the money, Back 9 very short. Greens were in terrible shape. Don’t think they had been rolled for many weeks.
