Unfair to Review at this Time

Best Municipal course in the South. This is not a good time to review this course because of the major renovation it is going through at this time. The renovation will be finished i a couple of months. But, in order to continue operations, they are closing 9 of the 36 holes causing a significant backup in course play. By late spring the reno will be complete and the course will return to being the best around. for the price.

Long, wide fairways. Could use some TLC. Gets a lot of play / 2 18-hole courses. Seems like they are short on help maybe

Back 9 was closed so had to play front twice but there was no starter to manage the fiasco at the 1st tee. Greens ok, fairways below average.

Nice course for a municipal course

Course was well maintained, especially for a muni. Pace of play was ridiculously slow. We teed off 20 minutes past our tee time and took over 2.5 hours to finish first 9. Only finished 15 holes due to darkness. There were multiple pairs that should have been combined Ed I to foursomes and tee times were clearly stacked way too close together.

Decent course

This course is a good value for January play on a public course. Not many deals out there for snowbirds this year but the Oaks fills the bill.

Course was normal as usual.

Course was about the same as ever year in January. Pace was 4:15 minutes. Course attracts a wide range of skill levels. No Kellys Plantation but worth it for $35.
