Great Course for the price we paid.

This is a great course for a price. While I would not put it in my top 5 places to play in the area. Due to poorly maintained carts, no club washers on carts, and lack of any rangers getting a handle on disrespectful golfers, and lack of a starter this time of year( we went off late due to back up because people were late for their tee time) I like the course and would play it again if I can get it for $30-$45, no where close to being worth the $65 they were charging other people.

Excellent links course

I've had the opportunity to play this course multiple times and find new challenges every time I play here. The front 9 is pretty open, however the back nine brings more challenge and elevation into play. For being a newer course (i think its been open for 5 years) its still maturing but is great considering the options versus other courses in the area.

Nice course, with mix of water, elevation and fast greens

There are a few holes where 1 Tee is near the previous green, but otherwise a nice layout with challenging holes, generally in good condition. I have always used a cart, walking would be a bit on the strenous side and some tees are a ways from the previous green.

Great course with good challenging holes

Never knew the course was in the area. Well maintained and friendly staff. Course played well with very little backup. Will definitely play it again.

Hidden gem

Great course for the value, lot of water on front 9 with tight fairways much more open on back 9 but with more elevation changes, more difficult when wind is blowin.

Gorgeous course in the country.

I really like this course. It's well maintained and very fair to the average golfer. There are some beautiful scenic views on some of the holes with cornfields and woods. Greens are in great shape as are tee boxes.
