Good track for the money

Track in great condition. Windy the day that we played which presented more of a challenge. Greens were rolling true. Looked slower than what they played. Will definitely visit again during the summer.

I play this course because the pace of play is very fast. I played 18 in well under three hours. Course is challenging enough to be fun, too.

Buffalo NY

Typical this time of year....over booked...missed my 11:05 tee time by a half an hour. After a couple of holes waiting was minimal. Greens are showing some wear. Two greens were damaged by kids on 4-wheelers I suppose...no discount for sure...but nobody says anything....no warning!

Well be warned that two holes on the back nine are un puttable without moving your ball once on the green.

Not the courses fault...but let's be up front.

Go to Renaissance..pay about the same on Golf Now...100% better greens and fairways...you won't be disappointed.

First Time Playing

Hidden gem

The course was in good condition, greens were fast and smooth, fairways were full ( no bare spots) tee boxes actually had grass on them. Pace of play was very fast. I payed alone and got around 18 in 2 and a half hours. Teed off at 2pm. Rained early in the morning and there were some cancelation, abd was a bit windy, so I'm sure there were some no-shows. But overall was enjoyable.

Course in Pretty Good Shape

Played this course because of convenience to the house. Good condition. Greens ran well. Very windy the day we played, but will definitely revisit during the next several months.

Poor Greens

The course was in ok shape but the greens are in terrible condition. They had sodded multiple areas on the greens, they had sand on several and the condition was poor. I wouldn't recommend playing here until the greens are in better condition

Good day of golf

The course was pretty much in really good shape! A couple greens appeared to have been vandalized and under repair. Not the course’s fault obviously.

I like this course the biggest challenge for me is it plays longer than the yardage shown. great playing, course was in good shape. I will return, when the rates are lower. Oh and lets not forget probably the largest alligator in Florida in full view and he is on the move.
