I Recommend This Course
Fun track
Pace of play was very slow due to it being Friday afternoon….many just out to have fun with actual golf secondary…lots of “first time golfers” it seemed. However, the course is a fun layout, staff are friendly, warmup range balls included…. All at a reasonable price. I will definately return.

Course condition
Fairways and greens were in decent shape except for a lot of bare dirt just off of the fairways. Tee boxes need a lot of work hardly any grass on a lot of the tee boxes.
