Bad Greens

Nice old municipal style layout. Fun to play but greens are in very poor condition. On a 4 foot put your chances of making it even with the proper line and speed are no better than 50/50. Really a shame.

Course in bad shape

Played the course a great deal five years ago and it was in great shape. They have really let it slide. Not a level spot on the tee box and all torn up. Fairways were full of divots and dead in spots. Greens had weeds all over. Used to be my favorite public course but will have to look elsewhere.

Pace of play is horrendous!!

Since the Pines is partly open the Oaks has been severely backed up. Atleast 5 hour round. Greens are patchy so putting is inconsistent. Can't wait for the Pines to be opened.

Under construction

Front nine was closed due to new irrigation system being put in. Played back nine twice. Back nine was in good condition for the time of year. Would play again after construction is completed.

Great golf course

Everything was excellent except it is complicated to figure out getting from one hole to another. Possibly more signage directing.
