Fantastic course, Rude pro shop staff!

Beautiful golf course that is well groomed with forgiving fairways, nice bar staff, and delicious food. Very unprofessional pro shop staff unfortunately. A man named John was very rude to my wife and I. Nonetheless I would recommend this golf course to anyone.

Awesome value, beautiful course, pro shop staff very rude

The course is groomed beautifully. Great layout and forgiving fairways. The food was great and the bar staff is very attentive. Steer clear of the pro shop staff if it all possible. A gentleman named John was very rude to me and my wife. Nonetheless, I would recommend this course for anyone who loves golf!

Improving except…

Almost everything has improved from last year. Pace of play is still extremely slow. They need to get rangers out there to move slow groups.

Get your putter dialed in

Great layout, greens were perfect, 19 hole is awesome.

Fair track, with well placed bunkers and water, greens were in great shape with quite a few greens with challenging undulations.

Fun course

Nice lay out. Greens were good. The course needs some help. Grass was thin. Rough was dirt, sand traps lacked sand. A good greens keeper could make this a top notch course.

Average, at best.

For the cost, the course was not well-dressed. Very dry, fast greens, packed bunkers, and pretty dry fairways. The layout is nice and the fairways well trimmed.

Great course, great value

The Duke is a fun golf course with solid fairways and great greens. It’s a great value as well. Less expensive then other courses that have less variety of good golf holes. They are also adding white sand which really improves the look. Hole 18 really looks great with the new white sand.

Pretty good to play when prices are down

Easy to find . Easy check in. Cart boys are helpful. Carts good with sand and ice in chests. Water bucket for towels,water on course for us. Ice available in grill also. On time. Tees good. Fairways good . Roughs dry or dirt that is hard. Water running thru 1,2,and 3 this time. Lots of brush has been cleared. Greens pretty fast and not too flat. Some bunkers now with nice white sand. Played in just under 4. Can’t take carts to car.. ok to play when prices come down
