Great value

Just visiting and had a great experience! Price was right and course was excellent value! Very friendly staff and nice bar/restaurant. Played at a great time course was wide open. Had to deal with rain, but that slowed me down just enough so as not to catch preceding groups. Course a little wet because of rain, greens very good. Lots of room for errant tee shots.

First time Last time

I’m sure there are many people that like this course but it’s not for me. I know it’s not a resort type course but it could be in much better condition. The fairways are hard as rocks, the tee boxes are pretty rough and the greens are very inconsistent one slow one fast. Definitely do not recommend this course if you are use to playing good courses. Also it’s the only course I’ve played were the flies eat you up.

Very nice course for the cosr

Very nice course to play. We played the pines one day and the oaks course the next day. They are very fun to play. The oaks course has some right fairways but it is more scenic. All the staff are very friendly including the ladies in the restaurant. Will play here again when we visit

Pretty good overall but some work still needed

The greens and fairways and bunkers are looking pretty good. But there are still some areas that need attention such as the wash out areas on #5 fairway and the bare areas on #5 fairway next to the fairway bunker. The fairway on #16 also needs lots of attention. Both these fairways have part of the fairway that slopes sharpy which means that heavy rains have caused erosion in those areas. They need to reshape the fairways on those holes to channel to rain water to certain areas and install drains to protect the fairway from being eroded. And there are bare areas on #17 fairway next to the fairway bunker that neds fixing. It should be a fairly simple fix for these bare areas to just dig them out and place new sod.

Some improvement at The Pines

Greens are good now - poa annua gone. Fairways generally are good but there are areas that need fixing - especially on # 5 and # 16 in the ash out and no grass areas. There is a bad wash out on # 8 off to the right [as one approaches the gree] to the right of the cart path. Should be an easy fix. Fill in with soil, tamp down and place sod over it and stake it off until the sod is established. They have staked off some areas in some fairways but don't really see much actually restoration work being done.
