Don't let the short length fool you....despite it's length, one can get into trouble real easy if you are not careful....The greens and fairways are in fine condition, but water will come into play on several holes if you tend to spray your tee shots.....it's always a challenging course to play.....
Neighborhood course. Great Gary Koch layout. Iron tester.
The Best Summer Golf Course
The Groves is a great course to play during the summer. It is inexpensive and not crowded during the summer. The course has a great layout and always in good condition.
Water
Put some water on the course
The greens are so dry they crunch when you walk on them. Finding grass to hit off on on the fairways is darn near impossible
What a great staff... they make you feel like family!

Unexpected pleasure
This was my first time playing this course, and I expected it to be like most other courses. It is so much more sophisticated than most. The carts have GPS that gives you distance to the pin and keeps you on the cart path on par three holes. I loved the course, even though there are quite a few hazards. Great experience.
Tom's
played in 3 hours. Greens don't break like you think they would. GPS is nice to use.
