Slow and Rude Staff.

Ranger abruptly interupts my buddy and I at Hole #9. He pulled right up in front of us mid game accuses us of slowing down the entire line of players behind us. We informed him an older couples group had us waiting five minutes for every hit up to the green/hole from T off to Hole all nine holes we played. We were on our last fairway hit to the green on Hole #9 and ranger told us to hurry up and didn't acknowledge our statement of the couples in front of us. He blew it off and angrily said hurry up.

We paid for 18 holes but decided it wasnt even worth playing the other 9 due to rude urgency to hurry up our game.

I don't think anyone wants to be rushed on a calm day of golf.

C+ course

Course price is good, club has very minimal. Staff is not friendly. Only the starter was from Boston. No cart girl but won’t allow coolers. Fairs good rough is deep needs to be cut. Tee boxes decent.

Needs attention

Grass needs mowing, losing balls 1 yard off fairway is ridiculous!

Ball washers had no water!

Water cooler was empty!

Small details can make or break the overall experience

Goat Ranch

Fairways and tee boxes were green, but the height of grass was not consistent of a quality course. Lost multiple balls that fell within 5' of fairway and fairways need to be cut lower. As said elsewhere, the greens were poor. That said, its worth the $25 that they charged, no more.

Just OK

Greens need attention and the pace of play was pretty bad.

Play somewhere else

This course is in terrible shape, if you must play here lower your expectations, great course for practice but that’s about it, limited food options. The city/county needs to invest in this course

Slow play - poor conditions

Aerated greens no warning. Rough super thick. Played behind 2 groups thru 6 holes that clearly had no golf experience or knowledge of etiquette. We had to request to play through both groups. No ranger on staff to enforce pace of play on a Saturday afternoon. When myself and the other player in my group finished 18 - no one else had played through the slower groups - and they were on 11 when we finished the round. That slow. Bad.

Worst conditions ever for a public course

This golf maintenance team needs trained by a professional superintendent. Greens were filthy fairways the same. Heard they replaced superintendent for what reason other than bad business decisions more than likely. Greens were awful compared to before Superintendent change. Fusion golf will be out of business before too long no doubt. Roughs aren't being mowed seems like. Before excuse was didn't have a machine now have a machine just sitting in maintenance. Funny their Facebook says they have the dream team gm and Superintendent. May want to rethink that. Joke no doubt

Getting better

New management seems to actually be trying to improve the course. Greens weren’t the best but overall in much better shape than recent summers. Great value…especially with the hot deal!
