Pines course

Challenging layout at reasonable rates.

Conditions a little rough this time of year but very playable.

I’ll be coming back.

Excellent Layout

Great day at the course. Slow play, but they were busy. The fairways and greens are in great shape. 75 degrees for December, I will take it.

I was disappointed. I played at 2pm so I got a twilight rate but if I had payed the full amount I would not have been pleased.

Not an Interesting course and not in good shape.. blah and blah. It’s playable.

Pines Course

The course is in great shape. Greens are quicker than normal due to the grass going dormant for the winter season. It's still green and plush.

Freezing Day at the Corse

It was 47 at tee off, and only reached 50. Had a good breeze so the wind chill was up. However the course is in great shape. The greens are much faster this time of year. The 1st cut is dormant, so used the putter often and sank two birdies from 60 and 70 feet! Just trying to get it close to save a par. Had a great time even though it was cold.

Great Pace of Play

We were a twosome playing behind a foursome and seldom waited in a round of 31/2 hours. Greens were very slow and the ball didn’t roll smoothly. The rest of the course was in good shape.
