Finished in the dark.

2:04 start time should leave plenty of time to finish before dark. Starter could've done much better job putting twosomes and singles together. Nice job otherwise.

Get what you pay for but not really

Very small pitch and put course, great for kids. Pace was so slow that I almost lost my mind. For me it was not enjoyable. My son was playing for the first time as where many other kids in front of us. With direction from their parents the kids all did well in keeping pace but the guys in front of them where aweful. It’s such a tiny course all the tee boxes and greens are literally next to each other. I’m not trying to bomb 200 yard green landings with people standing right next to it. We got 8 holes done in 2 1/2 hours. Remember these are all par 3 holes with one 312 yard. It’s hard to even play when you are cold and not swinging most of the time. Bucket of balls is better, $9.00 on GN would be good value if you could at least play in peace and not have two groups behind you waiting at every tee. People just roll right past you looking for an open box. It’s comical and won’t be returning even for $9.00

Fun Course if operated properly

The guy at the front desk seemed to hate his job/life when my group was checking in. The course was backed up pretty bad even with a 5:45 tee time. Good course to practice your short game but I won't be going back due to how poorly ran this course is now. Lesson here is you get what you pay for.

Slow play with rude golfers

Price drew me in and then I knew why fivesomes hitting multiple balls and no course Marshall to assist

Poor food and surly cook cashier

5 +hours rounds probanly considered fast play

No range practice area and in my round spring break made course even more crowded

Very friendly pro shop did not make up for the above

Worst Day Ever

The pace of play was unacceptable. We spoke to the golf manager after the first hole because he scolded us for playing the first hole twice but disappeared. It was backed on the second hole. On the 18th, there were three groups backed up when we arrived on the tee. Everybody was angry.

Rude staff and inept marshalls

The women who check you in are extremely rude and the marshalls are completely inept. They were not keeping pace of game and allowing people to blast inappropriate music from their golf carts that was very distracting. I will never return.

Slow...Exec Course

Note...this is an executive course, par 60. Was packed when I played on a Friday afternoon but that's probably a given. Long waits in between holes. Course/fairways/greens were in fair condition. This is a good course for beginners and folks looking to learn the game, not the serious weekend golfer. Everyone was friendly, would go back but only if I were looking to save $ on a round or help teach friends/family.

Snack.bar

Snack bar was closed to golfers. U could gat chips or a candy bar and that was it. They had something going on in the donning area with a big group and had no burgers or hot dogs. The pace of play was really slow. 4 hours for a par 61 course is way to long. We waited 5-10 minutes at every tee box. Other than that the course is fun and forgiving on most holes.

拾金不昧

我在网上授到该球场,非常不错!价格公道,而且也有意境。在回来两天后才发现眼睛落在高尔夫运动车上了,抱着试试看的心态,我的眼镜是个英国品牌而且有纪念意义。我去了一问他们告诉我,给我保留着呢。而且态度很好,非常感谢!

Good course

Played here a lot. Really good course for the value and well maintained. Just a heads up if you play the twilight special the tee times are stacked and it can move terribly slow.

Not What I Expected

We arrived :30 mins early for our tee time and we're informed that the course was backed up and they were running 10 to 15 mins behind schedule. Ok, time to eat and get drinks, perfect. (I did give one star for staff friendliness but to be clear the guy in the pro shop was very friendly and talkative, if this was the only person we would have ran into I would have given 5 stars) The bar is a tiny and outdated and the gal behind the bar was not very friendly. The course runs at a leisurely pace it took us 2:40 minutes to get thru 9 we basically waited to tee off on every hole but 9. We ended up leaving at that point as the back 9 was just as held up. At that pace we were not going to do a 5:20 round. We had awesome playing partners that we were paired up with so that made it more enjoyable. Tough little course but at $35 the course conditions just aren't there... I wouldn't recccomend...
