What happened!

This was one of our favorite courses, however, we will not be going back. The greens were in really bad shape, the womens bathroom has been locked the last 2 times we have been there, the mens is absolutely filthy, no toilet paper in the mens. And the weeds have grown up in around the course! There were only about 2 or 3 of the putting greens that were truly all green i really hope that plans are in place to return this course to a playable, enjoyable course! We played 18 holes and never had anyone in front or behind us! Was sad to see the shape this course was in!

Horrible!!!!

Paid $41 and should have been told by pro shop how poor this course was in. I would recommend playing Quail Heights or Turkey Creek if you’re in the area or traveling through.

Posting pics of #8 green. Only 3 greens you can putt!

Fairways and rough are in poor condition and need to be cut

Greens and tee boxes were great

Playing solo in the morning feels rushed

Too many groups playing at a time

Terrible Conditions

Been a member here for years and I worked at this course growing up. It’s truly sad to see this course in its current state. The owners that bought the course a few years ago have totally abandoned it. Not sure why you would purchase a golf course just to watch it degrade to its current conditions. Has to be a money laundering scheme.

Once Was Great

This course was at one point an amazing course for the area. The pricing was always great when compared to the quality of the course.

However, in the last year, the course has fallen into some disrepair. The greens and fairways are still adequate but not as pristine as they once were.

The roughs were not maintained in the way that they should be and it was evident that very little money or effort had been put into the course this past year to fix any issues or mismanaged course conditions.

Tee times are basically pointless as the club house uses them only as a reservation. People were allowed to tee off immediately after we were out of range, even though we paid for a second tee time to allow us to have more space.

This is still the best course in the area and a course I love deeply. I hope they will make improvements soon and restore the course to the prominence it once held.

Ok at best

The good:

Hot deal on golf now made it $35.

Pace of play was good

Greens were in descent shape. Very playable

The bad:

Tee boxes were rough

Fairways were rough on at least 1/2 the holes. Some were ok but overall it was not good

Bunkers had no sand

Cart paths need fixed or redone

The actual rate of $53 is ludicrous. Even the after 12 rate is too much

The course was in good shape with the amount of play and rain they had just received. Greens were a little slow but in great shape. I will be playing there again.
