Paid $12 to play and that’s about right…

I paid $12 off a golf app and I’ll tell you what, that’s about what it was worth. Don’t waste your time unless you’re not a serious golfer. The greens were terrible, the fairways were lined with trees that if trimmed and maintained would be nice and challenging instead of impossible. Extremely wet. 90 degree rule not enforced. The course just looked like a woman who was pretty in her twenties but hooked up with a bunch of bad dudes and is now 40 with 6 kids trying to get with the 55 year old wearing too much gold and driving a motorcycle .

Disappointed

Prior play years ago was in better shape. Rough shape on around tees and most all greens and really poorly maintained for price point.

Great challenge and conditions were good

First time playing this course but it is challenging, you will need to place your ball or trouble awaits you. I received a yardage book which helped immensely. The course was in great shape considering all the rain we have gotten over the past month. Come out and experience a challenging short course.

Great course

A wonderful and enjoyable course for the non long hitter’s . The greens are slow but true. Good food and friendly staff. What more could you ask for?

Just not worth your time anymore

Course has gone downhill significantly since I started playing here. Greens are chopped and furry, dead spots all over. Tee boxes poorly maintained. Fairway and rough feel the same. It’s a fun layout for a short course. The staff is very friendly. Pace of play is poor with so many snowbirds and leagues going on. Shouldn’t take 5 hours to play a 6000 yard course. Value course at best.

Good value for the Cost….just be prepared

Overall, the course is in good shape, however, the greens need to be taken care of a little bit better in order for this to be an overall four. The layout is nice and the trees offer a great views. The carts are very basic, no GPS, but again the value for what the cost is allows, you to enjoy playing aOverall, the course is in good shape, however, the greens need to be taken care of a little bit better in order for this to be a overall four. The layout is nice and the trees offer a great views. The carts are very basic, no GPS, but again the value for what the cost is allows you to enjoy playing a good round of golf in a decent location. The major grip we had is there was no cart service on Sunday and the bar restaurant was also closed. Pro shop didn’t have any issue with us buying water and Gatorade from them and placing ice in a small cooler we happen to have. But if you want any other beverages, it is probably worth a call before hand.

Greens were rough, the restaurant and bar were closed. The pro shop worker wasn't friendly, no sense of humor.

The greens were brown like they didn't even try to maintain them.

Fun coarse for Value

Most of the greens are fair, couple need some TLC.

Overall it’s fun with couple challenging holes. Can’t complain for the price point.

Leave time for the round

It’s summer, no snow birds, but due to the very affordable rate to play, and the layout is fun, staff is friendly, there are just hackers everywhere. Took us 5+ hours around noon to play.

Short and narrow

This is not a long course. It is very narrow with lots of trees on front 9. Opens up a bit more on back 9 but not much. With no one in front of me I played 18 in just over 2 hours.
