Nice Staff/Facility, Terrible Course

9 hole course, 7 holes under 100 yards, pretty miserable conditions. Nice training facility and staff though. $16 to play a pretty rundown pitch and putt.

Easy quick 9 holes

The day started off as usual with Richard, the starter. He's always very friendly and nice. The course was in pretty good shape. Greens aren't fast but true especially in the morning. Great pace to work on game while I'm recovering from a wrist injury. Par four are pretty short but challenging with water on both. If feeling bold on #9, aim 20 yards left of big palm tree in creek. Plenty of room left near #1 tee box. Par threes are between 60-125 yards.

Good quick 9 holes

It’s a quick 9 holes on a course that’s in good condition with good enough greens. It was busy the morning I went, but finished 9 holes in about 1 1/2 hours. Group in front of us was a bit slow, but the overall pace felt good. Some holes are a bit tight and feels like an inexperienced golfer might have some issues hitting towards other groups, but overall would recommend this course to anyone. Especially newer players looking to practice their short game.

Starting to show flaws

I love this place. Perfect course to refine your wedge game. But it seems when I play early, they're always tending to the course. So I tee off into active sprinklers on the green -- meaning I'm always putting on, or chipping from, a freshly soggy wet surface. That's tough. I wish they'd do all that business in the hour before opening, not while people are playing.

Pay to play not!

It was a nice practice golf facility. Me and wife are average golfer and plays once a week. Range balls price is high! The course is a lot cheaper to book online than the range balls. There maintenance guy had no clue and walked worked on the green while my wife was putting.

It’s coming along

Haven’t played here in about a year or two, but I gotta say, super impressed with the upgrades to the range and other practice areas. Having a track man at a place like this is super cool in my opinion. As for course conditions…I mean look, you’re paying $18 so you shouldn’t be expecting carpets any where on the course. Pace of play was awesome, finished in about 90 minutes. Other golfers in the course were great and friendly. No one rushing each other etc

Pretty okay

Rather new to golf. People playing seemed nice. A lot of waiting on groups ahead. 5 players averaging triple bogeys tends to slow the pace. 3rd tee box under repair and they put the temporary one in a nasty spot. These holes are pretty short with 2 holes being over 200 yards. All in all was good. Of course when your game is going well probably didn't hurt :)

Great first time out

Course was in pretty good shape after heavy rains warlier in the week. The 4th hole was a little juicy but other than that great. The crossing from 6 to 7 had a few inches of water running across so dont wear your best non-waterproof shoes if it recently rained. The greens ran pretty smooth around a 8-9. Tees were pretty good. Fun course with 2 short par 4's of 210 and 270 (played shorter with tees way up). The par 3's were a little on the shorter side between 65-120 yards but fun with some water around the greens. The 9th hole is a little goofy- play to the right of the fairway trap to have an angle and view of the hole. Staff was very friendly. Teed off at 7 am on a Saturday and pace was around 1:40.

Weather was porr

Probably not an honest review because of the bad weather. Really muddy and wet. However the course was okay. Couldn’t really use all my clubs, mainly stuck with 2. Range was closed too

Fun quick course to tighten up your short game

It is a fun quick course to tighten up your short game. The greens are a nice conditions. There’s a lot of trees it’s peaceful and every time I’ve been I didn’t feel rushed and I had enough time to play my round with no issues. If you just want to play a quick nine hole, this is a very short, small, easy access course.
