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.

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.

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.
