Great Fun Course

I've played here 6 or so times over the past year. It's a great course to get some play in but not take up the whole day. I like the four par 4's- the first 2 are pretty short and easy and the second 2 are more challenging. Most of the par threes are between 100-160, so not short ones that you get at other shorter courses. Really no complaints about the conditions. The greens ran smoothly, the bunkers were in good shape and the fairways were mown nicely. You can find great hot deals on golfnow for about $10-15 to get out before 7:30 am. Staff is always very friendly too. Will continue playing here.

Great 9 Hole Course

I have played Recreation 9 since doing summer camps there in the early 2000’s. It is a well kept course with a very beginner friendly layout. People are always extremely nice here, and the greens are some of the best for a “budget” course around

Reliable Executive 9 muni

Course conditions were fine, but as can be expected on a Sunday afternoon, pace of play was particularly slow (no reason for a par 31 to play longer than 2 hrs, let alone 2:45).
