Greens could be better
Every5hing was super except for the greens. Looks like they were punched quite awhile ago but they are still bumpy and slow on at least half the holes.

Greens still Bumpy 5/4/26
Play at your own risk. Tee to greenside is playing as usual. Greens were punched 10-11 days ago so still in recovery for another 2 weeks.

Great Course!
First time here and loved it. The only knock on it was the pace of play due to a Tournament that we weren’t aware of. The groups in front put out pace of play at 18 minutes behind.
Other than that the place is great!

No replay?
Course was cart path only. Lots of soggy areas but the course played well. A little bumpy on the greens but it's been raining so no complaints, adjusted by the 4th. Aside from the course. The fact that there isn't a replay rate is kinda crazy.

There are not ball washers filled with water & soup at each Tee. The restrooms on the course and in the clubhouse are disgusting!!! And too many ball marks on the greens - need a better more motivated maintenance team. The last time I went to the snack bar at the turn, I was disappointed with lack of selection, so I didn't even bother.

Fun Spot, beautiful
Love this place, cheap and beautiful with interesting layout. If they haven’t mowed in a bit it’s a little shabby.
