5 hours

no marshall. course just packed. Waited on every shot. Just poor course management. I played here a few years ago, and it was slow then too. I did not realize that this was normal for this course. I thought maybe it was just a busy day. I will not be coming back.

Bunkers dreadful

Enjoy playing Skylinks and it's part of a regular rotation.

Greens are always in good to excellent shape, but tlc is needed on the tee boxes and on the bunkers. As the primary protection hazard, the bunkers need to be playable.

Current hard dirt, with minimal dust on the top.

Leveling and mowing the tee boxes would also add to the playabilty.

Course needs lots of work

Tee boxes by the most part all need lots of work. There’s a lot of maintenance needed all over the course. The price paid I expected something at least half as better than what it was and couldn’t even do that. I wouldn’t come back to course especially at the cost they are charging. Overall very disappointed.

Day out for fun

Overall course was nice, decent greens/fairways. Enjoyed the par 4’s & 5’s.. definitely will play again.

Only bad review was the guy in pro shop… unfriendly & had attitude he ‘couldn’t be bothered’’ Found that quite rude. Gentlemen @ 1st Tee sending ppl out was the exact opposite. Extremely friendly & helpful. . Pro shop guy needs to check his attitude

Good but Not Great

Played here for the first time and here are some take always:

Pros:

-Greens are true and fun.

- Pace of play is great (we finished in 4 hours on a weekend twilight tee time).

- layout is interesting.

- Tee boxes are nice.

Cons:

- Bunkers are trashed, and are the main defense for the course. Mostly hard pan or ultra fine sand.

-Fairways we’re even, but we’re hard underneath the grass, and were challenging to get a ball airborne at times and take divots.

-Cost $80 to play and ride, which is way too expensive for the poor surface conditions.

This place could be a great mid-tier course, it just needs some extra TLC, and care on the fairways and bunkers.

Great Course Terrible Starters

Probably my 5th or 6th round here purely out of convenience overall it's a fun course the staff are usually pretty pretentious which is ironic for a muni, players club is only worth it for the range balls.

The last 2 times I've played here the starters and general pace of play have just been dreadful.

Yesterday the starter was ranting to me about how he doesn't go off of times and how he had a big gap in front of the group ahead of who then backed up the next 2 groups all round long for a 5 1/2 hour round of golf. Just dreadful. For the money there are much better courses and staff that aren't a clown show.
