Great use of reclaimed land

They were running a special and the course was fairly open on this day. We only wound up playing 9 but still felt I got my money's worth.

Fun executive course

Good and fun executive course. Greens and.fairways in good condition. Bunkers are not in good shape and barely have any sand it them. But overall a good course to practice a lot of short and long irons.

Bad course

Most holes are par 3s. Lots of kids walking the course. It only took us 3 hours to play but I'll never play it again. Not very well maintained and the cart paths make zero sense. They don't go anywhere near the tee boxes or greens.

Thank you for taking the time to review. Yes, we are an executive golf course, with one par 5 and five par fours. I certainly understand your concern if that was not what you were expecting.

Thank you for coming out and taking the time to review us. Our FootGolf players have specific times so I'm surprised that you ran into them. Plus, they play faster than golfers, so unless you were playing as a single, you should not have caught up to them. If you would care to follow up with us, we would like to know more details so we can prevent this in the future.

Good beginner friendly par 3 course

Overall had a great time playing on this course. Only complaint being cart path could be better marked for which direction to take at some of the forks for where next hole is. Ended up skipping 11th by accident from taking a wrong turn

This was terrible par 61 5 hour pace of play

No one seemed to have any idea what golf etiquette was. No pace of play was enforced and the course itself was a joke. Closer to a par three than a real golf course. Waste of my time and my money

5 hr round

Staff was friendly ,the equipment was maintained, but the course was a letdown. A recycled landfill, barren and devoid of any interest. I might be able to accept this as a place to practice my short game if it didn't take nearly 5 hrs to play a round. Even with the golf now deal I was disappointed.

Confusing

Tucked away just outside the perimeter, this course wasn't anything special. The design is confusing and poorly marked. It is quite hilly leaving few level lies, even on tee boxes. They had a couple of over-seeded tee boxes, but you were m ore likely to be sticking a tee in sand than turf. There are a couple of holes with tight landing zones that if you miss, you're more than likely carding an 8.

Several holes have crackling power lines very much in play. It's an accomplishment that they were able to fit a course onto this piece of land, but just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

The poor signage makes this a frustrating course if you're playing for the first time, but I'm not sure I'd increase my rating upon a return visit, which is unlikely.

This course is fine to play a quick 9 if you live or work in the area, but I will not be going out of my way to return.
