Wife & I had a great 18. No waiting. Majority of fairways wide open - only lost a ball each. Really enjoyed the outing!

Wednesday golf

Is a good time to play the course, low number of golfers so there was no pressure on the speed of play .

Course is in good shape.

Gopher Holes

Made a hole in one on the 16th fairway. Is there a local rule for that?

Not fun

Some of the greens are very bumpy. No true roll. There is limited cart path so you must ride on course which is often very bumpy making for an uncomfortable ride. Fairways are not well maintained. Carts have no roof, open to sun. Checkin was easy and outdoors. Friendly attendant.

Decent Course

The tees could use significant work and the greens have some invasive grasses that need to be treated and removed. The course design is very good with no parallel fairways and strategically located sand traps. The fairway grass is average. The design of the greens is better than average and the golfer is punished when placing the ball above the holes.

Nice layout

Tees could use some work. The fairways could use more water. Greens are about average. No parallel fairways which is excellent and a good safety factor.

Riley who periodically is the starter and works in the clubhouse is top notch and cordial.

Beautiful day for golf

This has been my second out of town golf experience since courses have reopened due to the Pandemic. I was happy to be out and the day was beautiful. Conditions were good and I was a little rusty, but didn’t care. I was playing golf again !
