nice course

It is a very nice course. The fairways are in great shape. The greens are soft and full. The carts and paths are in great shape. The ball washers are always empty and not maintained so bring something to clean your balls because the course holds water well and there is a strong need for washers. Joe and the staff are very nice and friendly and laid back. They always say "grab a cart and have a good round".

Always a fun course.

I love playing this course. I only get to play about once a month so I like to make sure it is good quality golf. It was lite rain and the fairways were soaked but it was still a perfect lie on every shot. The greens were smooth and easy to two putt. Some of the tee boxes could use a break so they can fill in and thicken up. This course has great views. Can not wait to play again.
