Course is in good shape

The course has benefited from the recent rains and lower temperatures...less play, more grass. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens are all in good shape.
Played single for first seven holes, twosome for next five, and single again for remainder and finished in just under three hours.
Only complaint is that group ahead was walking...strolling, actually...with an open hole ahead of them. Course marshal was either ineffective or unobservant.
But with a great online greens fee deal, I didn't care.

Course is challenging due to the water on almost every hole. It does seem awfully brown though and could use more watering.

Nice course for the older golfer. Very pleasant surroundings

Its great for the short game.

I like playing here because its close to home i have been playing there for 20 years. The greens are ok except for the people not fixing there divits. Theres a local rule that we use if u land in the creek on no.9 its a free dope on closer to the hole.Just play an have fun.

great course I enjoyed it!

I just got started playin this game, the course its very nice for beginers i think because it has its fairways wide enough, the greens run very good and it has a variety of holes long short, most not challenching at all, it is well kept, easy to walk the course too, comming back for sure I'll make it my twice a month course!

Dont Tell Anyone

This is a great little course that plays fairly fast, well maintained, great to work on short game but long enough to break out the woods.

Deplorable! Short course should not require 4.5 hrs of play! Ugh!

We waited about 15 minutes each hole to tee off. Ridiculous back up! No marshalls were available to push along players. A tournament was conducted in the morning which caused major problems when we teed off at 12:49. The attendant at the front desk, Ed, was surly, officious, and unpleasant. This course is an organizational mess, to put it mildly. The greens were in need of repair. Many fairways are barren patches. One cannot develop any consistency or rhythm of play.

Fun and challenging course! Staff was friendly and the pace of play was great!

Challenging course. Tough to get a read on the greens. I think i would have putted better if it hadnt been my first time playing the course. Would definitely recommend playing this to a friend and will take another shot at it myself. Good bang for your buck...

good course for a practice round

This is a good course for practice rounds because it will require the use for most of your irons in the bag. The greens were firm and well maintained. Can get crowded on weekends but good pace on weekdays when it's less crowded.

Great time!

My girlfriend recently picked up golfing and she really enjoyed the ease of this course. Some of the fairways needed definite attention of course as yellow and dry patches were on the 1st hole. Some of the rough areas were so tall that I couldn't even find my ball. Near the water banks it was really muddy and terrible. The greens were okay, but people either don't care about fixing their divots or don't know how. I was 2 putting because of the damage on the greens. There is no range at this course. On the weekends they fire up the BBQ outside and offer some great burgers and spicy dogs. We love coming here when it's cheap.
