To the first tee early.

Much like playing by ourselves, two of us, no hold ups, course in reasonable shape. They were spiking fairways with the greens to be aerated the following day. Enjoyed the day in every respect.

Conditions not great

Upset with the lack of grass on fairways and around greens. Too many bare lies. Also, got out early as a single and they failed to mention that they would plop 5 foursomes in a scramble in front of me on the 13th hole. If told, I would have slowed my play down accordingly. Just need to communicate better. Like the course but conditions need to improve before I’ll go back

DON'T BELIEVE THE PHOTOS

Course was in rough condition. Weeds and unrepaired divots everywhere. 1 hour wait to tee off due to large group starting ahead. Just don't believe the photos posted. Rangers needs to be employed to move slow groups along, fill divots and pickup trash.

5 1/2 Hour Round

3+ groups backed up on multiple holes on a Friday morning. Made for a poor day. Was told they had a tournament in the morning so it wasn't weather. Just poor planning. Clubhouse is nice, course is in ok shape. Won't be going back.

Beautiful Clubhouse

Can’t recommend this track. Greens were good but the rest was sad. Fairways need lots of work. Some tee boxes had no grass on them. Shame they spent millions on the clubhouse and none on the course. Hope there is money left to improve this track. At the very least grade the cart paths to take the ruts and huge pot holes out, and for god’s sake get a ranger out on the course to keep groups moving, waiting on every tee box gets so old fast!

Pace of Play

It took 5 hours to play the course. Waited on every tee and every shot. Greens had a few bare spots in them

Not Great

The course has potential, but it just looks like it’s not maintained very well. The layout is nice, with some challenges off the tee. Fairway, bunkers, and green conditions are simply lacking.

Course needs repair

Most fairways and greens lack grass. Weeds are out of control. Course needs major help before summer heat and humidity arrive.

Thank you for taking the time to offer us some feedback. Warm weather will be here soon and the dormant Bermuda grass will be growing before we know it. Your comments will be passed along to our team as we work to improve the course for your next visit. Thanks again.

Nice round

The course has a good layout, but course conditions seem a little rundown. With a little bit of spring growth and some sprucing up it could be great.
