Little Disappointed
A lot of bare grass less area. Dried out small& fast greens
Beginner course
My wife wanted to learn how to play golf, so I took her here to learn the basics. Choose it because of cheap price and basically a par three course. Not a course anyone who knows how to play golf should go. The scary thing is most of the tee boxes are basically located in the path of the ball from the previous hole. You have new or poor players hitting the ball at your head.
I only used my driver once and reached the green on an easy swing on their longest listed par 4. Greens are small and in fair to poor condition. The rest of course, fairways, tee boxes, ruff are all poor.
As low end as expected, when i arrived at course dropped off clubs at rack and went inside to check in, only person in was behind bar, he came around to counter and checked me in. Gave me a cart key and told me I would be playing the back 9 twice. He was very friendly and helpful. He told me how to get to 10th tee box. You have to cross a dangerous road a few times. Don’t worry about golf attire or any golf etiquette, it doesn’t exist here.
Basically the old expression, you get what you pay for but many better choices for the regular cost. I had a hot deal.

We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration as we strive to improve our course conditions and ensure a better experience for all golfers.

Great little course
I didn't like having to cross a major street to play part of the back 9, then crossing again to finish. Tee boxes were in good shape and the greens were in good shape and fairly fast. I'm not a fan of residential course, but would play again. Wish they took cash in the clubhouse.

Lil Gem
This is a really good short course to work your short game … the fairways are not the best ( just roll your ball ) but the greens are good , good enough … they manicure them and they roll good … there are a lot of par 3’s the par 4 are short so driver , short iron or mid iron , mid iron … how ever you want to play the hole … I am impressed with the greens … that’s the game anyway … for the money and the pace of play it’s hard to beat … far from perfect but easy in , easy out …2.5 hour round you can play 18 for the same time to play 9 at another course …yes I recommend this course…. Go find out for yourself .. go play .. I will be back. …
Cow pasture?
Actually, calling it a cow pasture is an insult to the cows...
The rating depicted on your site is a misnomer and certainly not worth the money. The front 9 has turfed greens, the directions and hole flow is catch as catch can. The back 9 is a poorly maintained executive course without notice which should be disclosed before the transaction is completed. Lastly the course and club house are antiquated at best. VERY DISSATISFIED!

Good for Beginners
We expected better but is a good course for beginners or anyone that needs to work on their iron play and hitting small targets.

Overpriced
Course is worst condition I’ve ever played for $50 on 9 holes. I think the last time we played 18 and got a hot dog and a soda for $35 person 2 years ago maybe.

Poor Conditions
First and last time to play this course. More like a playing golf in a pasture than a golf course. Greens had just been aerated but not sure why the waisted the time and money. Quit after 9 holes because the groups in front of me had no clue about golf or etiquette.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for the conditions of the greens and any inconvenience caused by the groups ahead of you. We appreciate your feedback and hope to provide a better experience in the future.
Okay par 3
The course is okay for someone wanting to work on there short game. Just 1 par 5 which really can be a par 4. Very short par 4s and a ton of par 3s. Tee boxs are rough and ants everywhere. Greens were mostly sand so can't get true putts. Fairways are so so but need work. Driving range is weird since you hit in the water and can not get true distance reads hitting on floating islands that move around. Don't expect much when you go.
