I have never seen this course in such poor shape. Diseased greens?? Tee boxes are like sand boxes. Disappointed-I like the course.

Good morning.

The greens are not diseased, we are purposefully stressing them by reducing the amount of water they receive. This practice will allow the roots to grow deeper and better establish themselves. There is a tremendous amount of work being done on the course to improve conditions. Think of it in this way; if someone has plastic surgery, afterwards there is bruising, swelling, etc. it takes time to heal, and when it does, the changes/improvements become apparent.

Disgruntled

Although I really like this course, with all the work they are doing , it needs water. The greens are turning brown and spotty( borderline diseased). I always make tee time for the morning before 9, this time I played behind 3 groups of women, the 1 of the 3 guys that were suppose to tee off with me was stuck in traffic, so his 2 friends waited for him. I caught up to the 3 groups of women at the 4th hole, they were hitting the ball 40-50 yards each shot, so I was waiting on each hole in the sun . Golfers etiquette , not on this course. I said something when I got into the parking lot to the guy who cleans the clubs and one of the ladies overheard me and said it was not their fault, that they should not have sent single golfer out. I think these leagues should not be allowed to play before 10:00, it slows up play. I probably won't be back

Nice course

Paid $45 for an 11:08 AM tee time and that is a fair price for this course. Layout is interesting and course conditions are pretty decent. Heavy rain the days prior to play and some traps were poor. Generally a fair deal for the cost.

I will be back

Enjoyed the course and looking forward to playing when it is in better shape. It has been so dry that the greens were a bit bumpy, but still in better shape than most in the area. Tee boxes could use some help, however, it did look like they were working on them.

Challenging enough without being frustrating.

Pace of play good.

You get what you pay for

Listen when you are able to get a tee time 4 days before for a prime Saturday am tee time you know what you are going into. The layout is fun but the greens were pretty awful for the most part. There was one green that looked like someone took 150 practice divots on. That being said we played in just over 3 and a half hours and the price was right. I will go back but I won’t be in a hurry. The place is just fine.

Considering the dry weather the past couple months the course was in decent shape - some greens had little bumps - the course updates make it more challenging like it!

Not bad for price

Overall pretty good. Greens were good and fairways and tees OK. But not really due to anything the course is doing. We have not had rain here in almost 3 months. A good layout. Definitely worth a Hot Deal.
