needs water

have played here occasionally over the years and like the layout. Pro shop attendant was very congenial, starter not so much. course suffering from the lack of water, haven't had much rain in many days, would help I'm sure. while the greens didn't look pretty, they did putt true and very fast. They are hard but a well struck short-to-medium iron will hold fairly well, best to play a little "links style" golf.

fairways had little to no grass. conditions need to improve significantly before I'll be back at any price.

Bad, real bad

I can review this course in 2 words: GOAT RANCH. This is without question the worst course I’ve ever played, no grass on the tees, no grass on the fairways, and the greens I don’t even know how they can call those things greens. Waste of time and money. Don’t play here.

Call first to verify course conditions

Ok... I can't recommend this course in its current condition. I have no reason to come back to play this course. Greens were the worst I have played on ever. Fairways were so dry there were sandy areas my ball landed in. 85* out there in a Sunday afternoon.. didn't see any water coolers on front nine. no beverage cart person out there. Back nine ..came upon one water cooler station.. empty. No water.. I had heard good things about course somewhere. Now I know it must have been another course.. played on 3-15-2020. On to another course..

Terrible

This is the third time I have played this course in the past 10 years...it really sucks.

The course is in terrible condition.

Rocket fast greens, hard like rock.

I will never play this course again.

It looks like this course is about to close up.

pathetic golfcourse

This course is absolutely pathetic it is worse than a cow pasture so bad that I don’t know if a cow could find any food out there if he was grazing. The greens are horrific and it’s hard-pressed to find grass on that green rather than brown and some disease.

Whoever owns this golf course or just bought it obviously doesn’t know zero about golf they get the people in there granted only because it’s cheap and even a cheap one is overpaying.

Got golf passes for $19 each on "Local Flavor"

Truly a $19 golf course.

Fairways were different, greens were special, tee boxes were challenging...putting green was difficult to read.

Carts were great and the cart paths were nice.

A lot of fake sand traps in many of the fairways.

For $19 it will bring a tear to your eye.

The bar was locked at the end of our round...we were unable to have a beer and review our shots.

If you pay more than $19 to play, you probably will find the course is not in the best of shape

Okay course for the discounted price

This course needs some attention to the tees, and fairways very hard, dry, and sandy soil.in many areas. The greens were in fair condition and many holes had leaves or tree debris along the fairways. The place needs some care, the value for a round was fair considering the condition of the course. The staff were very friendly and efficient!
