Golfer Reviews
You get what you pay for
There was a promo on this site for $28 for 18 holes of golf. The course was in so so conditions, the greens were long grass like fairway length, and there were a lot of patchy spots that had no grass at all throughout the whole course. The one awkward thing that did happen towards the back nine on the bobcat was they ran the sprinkler systems in the middle of the day at high noon while we were still playing. Even as we spoke to the groundskeepers, there was no acknowledgment that we were playing numerous holes that had all the sprinklers on throughout the fairway. I don’t know why they would run them at that time knowing there’s people playing. There were two gentlemen at the front desk in the pro shop that checked me in, one was very nice, and the other is somewhat I had seen in the past that you could tell was rather gruff and is probably the culprit of the numerous complaints within reviews for this golf course. I did not have to deal with Him so I guess that’s a benefit. You get what you pay for. It was $28 out the door, I finished in three hours, but the course conditions were not good.
Poor conditions, soaked
Very rough. 2 times been here and courses have irrigation issues and flooded. Holes have standing water in them. Some fairways are ok
Some Tee boxes are dirt
Greens have sand on them
For 20$ sure not for 40 or more
Nice course, not very hospitable.
We were able to play two holes and we really like the course. On the third hole, the pouring rain started. If it had been a mild rain, we would have kept playing. But the rain was very strong. We asked for a rain check and were told that they don’t give rain checks if we booked through GolfNow.
Not Good
I have played this course for years. It was never a country club, but this is ridiculous. Entire holes out of commission for no apparent reason. New holes and tee boxes created in fairways. Fairways are crabgrass and dirt and are nearly indistinguishable from the greens.
Course has really gone downhill. Reminds me of the claw right before they decided to sell it.
Just no. Nope
have played here many times, always found the course in pretty good shape.
Tee boxes
Fairway were awesome greens were 50 50 Tee boxes were horindous not one but all of them.
have played there many times in the past. have found the course in really good shape.
Worst golf experience
I came to this course with four friends to play golf, 5 in total. As soon as I arrive the two guys in the pro shop had a belittling attitude as we paid for our tee time. They immediately addressed us by saying “you guys better not be playing 5”, which is understandable, yet we weren’t even able to ask. They were not civil whatsoever and when we mentioned that the course was empty and inquired for reasoning to why we couldn’t, they said nothing and disregarded it. On top of that, the greens are so poorly maintained as there are practically bunkers in my line as I putt. I’m disappointed as I paid 50 dollars to play and will NEVER be going to this pathetic excuse of a course again in my life.
