December Golf

The day was beautiful, temperature was 72 and it was December 3rd. Had a wonderful breakfast at the restaurant which has the friendliest wait staff at the Lake. I joined a twosome from Canada and had a perfectly wonderful round.

Very nice and definitely great for the price

Played the course early November, been a few years since I have played it. Course was in outstanding shape especially for this time of year. Price also excellent can't beat under $40 for a course with this layout in this shape at the lake. Also, one of the few courses that you can still make a t-time online and do not have to give payment info. One piece of advice for whoever runs the website for booking t-times, make it possible to cancel your reservation online and not have to call the course. Definitely recommended and I will be back.

The layout of the course was very nice but hard.

The course was very nice even though it was very wet but what can you expect when it had a lot of rain. I will come back again someday.

Rained Out!!!

We were rained out and the course was closed. I have been trying to contact Golf Now for a refund. We had two players. The directions on the phone number did not work for getting the fee taken off my card.

Nice course

This is a great layout and fun course to play. They aerated their greens yesterday and made putting very difficult. Golf Now should have had a warning on their site about this. This is the second time in the last few months that golf now has failed to post a notice about greens being aerified.

Amazing course!!

I will start by saying we’ve never been to a course with such amazing hospitality before! From the friendly woman who checked us in for our tee time to the groundskeeper who brought us snacks because we didn’t realize it was cash only!! The greens were beautiful and course was really well kept. We had an amazing day and would definitely come back!! I highly recommend!!
