Excellent As Always

Considering the time of year, this course is in great shape. The staff are always friendly, the restaurant is amazing and the weather is beautiful right now! There are some rough tee boxes that could use some flattening and the grass will fill in as the year progresses so that part is OK. I always enjoy playing here!

Back 9 closed due to construction

Upon checking in inwas told the back 9 was closed . Prior to teeing off . The group behind me headed to the back 9! Which I was told I can't play . Unfortunately it isn't listed on their website nor on golf nows website . The bridge that crossed the street is under repair. But they were allowing local to drive down a private street to start on 10

Fantastic Course and Atmosphere

It’s worth the drive. This is a gem tucked away in a welcoming community. The course is in great shape, and the greens are far, far better than most courses in this price range.

good summer course if weather if moderate

Most summers it is very hot in this area but this year weather is very pleasant with temperatures in the low 80's. Makes perfect golfing weather and course is in good shape. Milder weather is helping keep everything green and playing well.
