First Time Playing

Pleasantly surprised

The greens were in fantastic shape. Fun layout and conditions were surprisingly great for a county course. The only thing I would say needs improved: there was no starter so tee times weren't adhered to. Also the pace of play was extremely slow, no ranger at all as well.

Decent shape!!

Staff was not very friendly, course was in half way decent shape, greens were a little slow. Took us about 4 hrs 15 minutes to finish round.

Disappointed

Played this course numerous times before, always pleased with what we got for the money. The past 2 times we went, we had a group of five and a group of six in front of us. We were playing just with two of us and were waiting at every shot. The starter has no idea how to manage pace of play. They allow larger groups than foursomes to play and they don't pair up small groups to make foursomes. Very frustrating!

Good public course

Course is maintained. Fairways are average, greens were firm and fast, tee boxes need some work. Liked the layout, bunkers average, fair amount of water. Challenging but fair. I’d say in good shape for being public. Helpful staff. Worth the cost. I’d recommend if looking for a better than average course in the area at a reasonable rate.

County course, but great value

It's a County course, but better than most. Open fairways most holes. Greens seeded but we're ok. Fairways nice. Pace was 2 hours and 45 mins. It's pre-seadon so good timing. During season still good, but much slower due to more snowbird duffs playing and well...

It's great value for money, especially if you get golf now credits.

Good price

Good condition for public course, greens where sanded but in good shape and fast especially for a public course.

Only problem was with a pace of 5hrs a round.

But that’s what ya get for the price and being a public course.

Good course

The course itself is well maintained and the greens in decent condition. The only downside is the pace of play was slow ! 18 holes took at least 5 1/4 hours. The price was very reasonable!
