Horrific greens

Good lay-out and friendly staff. The tee boxes are in good condition. Fairways are below average. The greens are the absolute worse I have ever seen and I have been playing for 50 years. Will not return

This course needs TLC

Big difference from last time we were here - little over a year ago. The greens were mostly bald, fairways OK. I thought our golf cart would die before 18 holes - the cart seized on us 3 times with a sudden stop.

Very disappointed overall. They need to fix this course to remain viable in St Johns as there are other courses to play nearby.

course okay.

We had to take 3 carts because one of our party had to leave early. We ended up getting rained out, staff asked for an extra 25 cart fee. I'm okay with it, but it's a bit tacky on a 345pm tee time. Course is I'm better shape than I've seen it in a few years, a couple of greens under repair. Greens are slow, but decent.

really enjoyed it

A terrific layout, beautiful fairways. The greens are playable and you can see the effort they are making to repair them. I highly recommend this course and I think it will continue to improve. Make sure you play from the tee box that fits your game. The further back you are, the course is just that much tougher and accuracy is a must. I'll be back for sure!

Under construction

2nd time I’ve played here course is challenging. But the place is under renovation. They will give you a play next time at half price coupon. Which I will be using soon. Greens where jumpy. Hopefully they get everything smooth, but then again, me and my buddies aren’t that good. We just out for a good time, which it was.

Needs Work

Course at one time was very nice. In it's current condition however I wouldn't recommend playing. I have played the course 2 times in the past 2-3 months ad it seems like it is actually getting worse, not better. The greens are atrocious and have several that aren't even possible to roll a put. #8 fairway is completely closed and overall the course is rough.

A good layout undergoing improb=vements

This is an excellent layout and the new ownership is spending money on the course and facilities. I have noticed some big improvements and if they can get the greens fixed it will be one of the best places to challenge your game in the area

Don’t play here!!

This course has been consistently going down hill over the years. At this point the greens are impossible to putt on. It’s like if you combine the bunkers with fairway grass and lumpy dirt underneath that’s what you’re putting on. The ranger just followed my group as we all watched a three ball take 2.5 hrs to play front nine. Such a disappointment!!!

Greens were terrible

Heavy equipment on 10th hole. Greens half way laid. Recommend they either close for maintenance, reduce their rates, or try temporary greens at reduced rates.
