Cow Pasture with apologies to cow pastures

To call this a cow pasture, is an insult to cow padtures!!

Since new management has taken over, it has gotten brutal.

But it doesn't matter what I write, Golf Now is complicit with these brutal courses. They never publish negative reviews. I can say this, if my review doesn't get published I with file a complaint with the government for falsifying reviews! It shouldn't be called a golf course!! Nothing good, not the fairways, not the tee boxes, not the sandtraps, not the greens oh those are atrocious. The staff are very nice. Fire the management

Still Recovering From Hurricane But Fun Round & Well Worth The Money

Played weekend morning round, booking as a single. Was paired with another single & played as a twosome. Finished in under 4 hours, which included a 15 minute wait at the turn. Course was not in it’s usual good condition due to storm related damage, but was very playable. Staff members Chris (inside/register), Joe (starter) & Dave (carts) were friendly & accommodating. Would recommend this course and look forward to returning soon.

Back in action

Course suffered with large oaks blowing down in the hurricane but the staff have cleared the course and very surprised it’s in good shape.

Obviously very popular at the moment but just great to get out there and hit some balls again.

Post Hurrican

Besides the loss of 20 large trees the course was playing as it did when I played last winter. Of course with the GolfNow Hot Deal and my rewards, I played for $10. Get it for $45 or less and you're good!

Greens too grassy

I played 4 days after Helene. Most greens were very dark green with fatty grass and somewhat wobbly with bubbly growth. Yet, as usual, I enjoyed the round!

In decent shape

For the course to be open a few days after the hurricane passed by was a pleasant surprise. My only gripe, was that the greens were excruciatingly slow.
