Fun open course but price is getting outrageous
I love this course because it has wide open fairways but still challenging enough. Pace of play is great but the price just keeps going up. Used to play here a lot but now only if I can find a deal through golf moose or Groupon, non deal is price is $35-65 depending on time. Staff hasn’t been very friendly either when I’ve been lately.

Alright
The greens were in pretty rough shape, it looked as if they are trying to fix them but every green had deep brown spots the had a ton of sand on them. But really the rest of the coarse was pretty forgiving. All the sand traps were pretty wet, made it difficult to hit from .

Decent track
A pretty flat and uninteresting layout but well kept and the greens were in outstanding condition. I’d play again if I was in the area of Nicolaus but probably wouldn’t recommend making a special trip to check it out.

Decent course, but not worth the rising prices.
River Oaks plays as a decent cheaper course, but their prices don’t reflect that. It’s too bad because we enjoy it as an easier home course, but the prices prohibit us from playing often, apart from occasional deals. If we’re looking to spend $40-$50 on a round, we’ll go play one of the nicer courses in Lincoln or Roseville.

HOT, BUT GOOD
Although the prices have been raised since reopening after the Covid shutdown, the course is in the best condition it's been in years.
