Looking good
The course is in pretty good shape, has a couple of areas that are still a little wet. They are redoing the bunkers right now. The sand is nice and soft and playing great, but because they’re working on them the sand at the edges is built up 6 to 8 inches over the lip. I was just playing it as ground under repair the couple of times my ball came to rest on or in it. The greens are always in great shape but because people don’t repair their pitch marks there is some marks on the greens. People not repairing pitch marks is a pet peeve of mine. All in all love the course, it’s got some of the best greens around. I recommend playing it.

Best course in the area!
You won't find a better course within an hour that's in better condition or better layout for the price. Outstanding value and an absolute joy to play! People are great there as well from the cart guys to the clubhouse, everybody there.

Well the sandwiches were delicious
The course is in rough shape it was raining but there was lots and lots of puddles and squishy fairways the greens were pretty rough there a big patches that were missing grass. they were fast and bumpy they had a best ball tournament playing in the middle of our 2 some which was really weird so there was always somebody on our but the entire time it was a good deal because we had a flash sale for $19 I wouldn’t pay more than that after lots of renovation this course could be great it has definitely seen lots and lots of play. Bar was great with great food and lots of football.
