IMG

IMG has insured that they provide a reputable golf experience for all levels of golfer. The fairways, greens and traps are very well maintained. The course has some genuinely interesting holes which can mess up any golfer, especially when pins are in difficult positions. I would recommend this course anytime.

Couldn’t use the range beforehand, since it was full of IMG school kids - I wouldn’t have arrived to early ahead of my tee time had I been advised.

Pace of play was fairly slow - they could use a ranger to crack the whip on slow play, especially during the season.

Overall, quite expensive during the season, for what it is, but not a bad little track.

Nice layout with good conditions

True greens. Abundant fairways and well bunkered greens. Strategic water hazards and fairway bunkers. The front nine was slow but the pace was fine on he back.

Quality course, slow play

Staff are very friendly and helpful. Green fees come with range balls, definitely a plus. Rates are reasonable. Course is in good shape, greens roll true and fast. Only one complaint is pace of play, with no rangers in sight.

Hope to be back

Got a good deal as a single on GN, otherwise IMG is a bit pricey. Played the course last year and remember it as being excellent. Was not disappointed.

Conditions are excellent. Only negative was pace of play. Almost 2.40 to play the front, it did pick up in the back.

Classless operation!

Unfortunately there isn't a zero star so one it is! Horrible customer service. AJ actually drove out on the golf course and harassed me?? Where does it end. Instead of harassing me why the starter moved me up a half hour, why don't you harass the slow play. 2.75 hours for 9 holes?? What a joke! I'll never be back and I let everyone else I know and see about the horrible customer service and attempts to overcharge me! I booked online for $45 for 18 holes and they tried to say it was only for 9 holes. Harassment about bringing a cooler full of water on hot day! The course needs to reconsider letting young punks run the proshop!
