Very disappointed for the cost

Sunday 7:00 am tee time. Arrived at 6:00, pro shop never opened before tee time. Finally was shuttles over to members pro shop, but by that time we were on the tee. No time to hit any range balls. Bunkers not raked, still had last round tracks, etc.. Nobody told us, but about every other hole was cart path only. At the turn, the on-course snack/beverage shack was closed. No beverage service at any time during the round. The service and experience was far below the premium cost to play here. It’s too bad, the track is good and they have the amenities, but if you can’t get people to run the pro shop, man the Tourn or provide simple beverage cart service, that’s below average.

Overall condition

The course was amazing overall. Haven’t played it in over 8 years was amazed. Greens were awesome, they held well and rolled pure. Bunkers are great too with really nice sand. . I would highly recommend.

I was excited to play a really nice course, I was a single paired with 3 other people. They were novice to high high handicappers, it took 5 hrs to play 18holes. We were able to catch up to the group in front of multiple times , so the speed wasn't always on my paired golfers. I hope to try and play this course again but will make sure it's a group of my fellow golfers.

Brotherhood

4 childhood friends got together for a great day of golf at your lovely establishment. From the practice range to the Marshall to the restaurant bar, everything was top notched. We thoroughly enjoyed our day.

Love this golf course. - unfortunately the greens had just been top dressed but still rolled really well. The course has a combo tee for tournament and blue tee boxes.. I’d love to see combo tees put in throughout each set of tee boxes. There is a VERY big yardage gap between each set of tee boxes. Creating more combo tees would accommodate all players - not just the low handicappers and bombers. Overall - great day though 👍🏻

Meh

It's just an ok track. Built up in a big. As a result there are a lot of sharp edges in play.

Conditioning was, well, you can tell they no longer host a PGA Tour event here.

Practice facility is great however.

Other than the starter, the staff was awkward.
