Decent Muni - only 9 holes

The opening Par 5 is a nice elevated tee box at the tips, which I waited 20 minutes after my scheduled tee time to be able to hit. The whole round was agonizingly slow. By the time I made it to 9 it was just shy of 3 hours. At the turn there were 5 groups lined up at Tee 1. I called it quits at that point.

The Pace is slow because there is no Ranger or Marshal to move things along and I witnessed the group of 3 in front of me hitting no less that 9 balls off the tee box as they looked like they were playing for the first time. This continued the whole round.

Greens are OK but very bumpy and missing grass in many areas and the tee boxes are in just OK shape. They need to be leveled and seeded.

If they can find a way to move things along it would be a nice track.

Great course but inefficient

We paid for 18 and had an 1150 am tee time. We got there at 1130 but didn’t get teed off till 115 due to lack of carts. The course was great and the staff was nice. The pace was very slow due to walkers getting periodically teed off. We didn’t get done with our first 9 till 330 with an 1150 tee time and had to leave. Lots of potential but they need to figure out their operational issues. I wish we could get our money back for the second 9.

Poor pace of play. Do not play 18 on the weekend unless you want 5 hours of frustration. Pay for what you get.

They need better staffing

Guy at the front desk didn’t respect anyone’s tee time. We were told because the 3:10 group arrived before us they would be allowed to play first when our tee time was 2:50. Furthermore walk in were allowed to play in front of us as well. I guess this is they was you treat your regular neighbor patrons now.

Standard county course

Not going to go wrong with this place. Forgiving layout greens in decent shape. Tee boxes can use some work but pretty decent for what you pay for. Would play again

Couldn’t even play

We arrived for our 3:00 tee time at 2:40. We were told there were no carts available and that we needed to wait. After 20 minutes, we were told the 2:50 group before us still needed 2 carts. By 3:30, the 2:50 group still needed a cart, and there were 3 groups scheduled for 3:00. At that point, we took the loss and left. The course had clearly overbooked their capacity and did not have enough golf carts to meet their reservations. After driving 30 minutes out of our way to try a new course, we were very disappointed, to say the least. I’m not sure how “Golf Now” can list this as a place to play, given that they don’t honor tee times or keep enough carts on hand. I hope Golf Now will refund me so they do not lose a customer who has enjoyed the app for years.

Good course

Played a few hours after heavy rain so there was some mud and greens were a little rough but that’s completely understandable given conditions and time of year. Tees and fairways were great and friendly gentleman working the clubhouse was helpful. Will definitely be back
