Good value

This is a good quality public course. The greens are always a bit firm and the grass hasn’t started to green up in the fairway. Overall for the time of year it is the course is in pretty good condition.

Nice course, slow pace.

The course is still in great shape even after rain. Only one muddy hit all game. 2 weeks in a row, 6-7th time this year…pace of play was terrible! Yahoo foursome 3 groups ahead had 3 holes clear in front of them and every hole on front nine, we had a gallery of people at tee box watching. Adding pressure to the problems the already frustrating slow pace was causing. People need to learn that you don’t hit 3-4 balls a piece and take minutes lining up 4th putts! I think maybe the staff could stretch “cart path only” days to a 15 interval between tee times. Once marshal straightened out problem, last 5 holes were good. From double bogeys to 3 birds. Pace makes a difference.

Wet weather
Used cart

Great condition

We've had a lot of rain lately so it was wet and cart path only. But the place is in great shape. Very pretty course and such a fun layout.

Hot Day in July

Played at noon on the last day of July. I booked as a single and got paired up with another single. To start the staff was very friendly and helpful in the clubhouse. The driving range was in good shape, and had a water cooler available there to keep cool. The weather had been hot and dry for the previous week, but the course was still in great shape. Fairways were bouncy and trimmed, rough was thick but manageable, and greens were quick on account of a recent trim and the hot dry weather. They rolled very true, and the changing undulation at times made the greens a fun challenge. The course layout itself is a fun one. Not a ton of elevations change, but more of a winding course back right and left. There are some fun par threes with varying distances and water hazards. Cart girls are available, but we only saw her once on the front and once on the back nine. The marshal rode around with ice cold wet towels for anyone who wanted one, and that was a nice relief in the peak heat of the day. All in all 4.7 out of 5 stars. Great day on a fun course. I would recommend to anyone.

Excellence

This is an excellent presentation of golf laid on a beautiful landscape. Everything about the place is top notch. The course is very playable from the tee box of your choice and then you must execute an accurate approach shot to challenging green complexes that are in perfect fast condition.

Great shape.

The course is in fantastic condition and is a beautiful layout. The driving range could use some work. Lose sight of ball in open and perhaps have defining areas around flags to pick up where you are placing the ball.
