Only played 9 holes but had a Blast
Course was in Great Shape and the customer service was as good as it gets from the Bills fan Pro in the pro shop, the friendly starter, and the cool cart staff. If I lived closer, I’d play here All the Time!

Excellent Course That's Also In Very Good Condition
Played a late morning round as a twosome. Weather was a factor in our pace of play as we actually slowed down a bit over the last few holes due to extreme heat but still managed to finish in a little over 3.5 hours. Course conditions were excellent. Staff (especially Wesley C. and Willem) were welcoming and accommodating. Recommend this course and look forward to playing IMG again soon.

Really fun golf course with a great facility! I play there frequently and the only thing is they just punched the greens, but they are still rolling pretty true just a little slower than usual. Highly recommend!

Course in great shape but need Rangers to help with pace of play
Very nice conditions. Only issue was pace of play caused by one group causing backup of three other groups behind them. Ranger drove by and should have sped up the group. Otherwise, it was a good course to play.

The staff and course were great. With the exception of a couple of tee boxes under repair, the greens were perfect, the fairways were great. I will absolutely go back to play it again and as many times as I can.
