Poor course

Late April round, but fourth time out this spring and by far worst maintained course I’ve ever played, more areas of hard packed dirt than grass on all fairways. Concrete hard could probably put 100 yards on fairway due to lack of grass and hardness of ground,

Won’t be back

I know it’s early spring but course was like the middle of a dessert, minimal grass and lots of hard packed dirt to hit off of. The course was the poorest public course I’ve ever played. Definitely will not go back or recommend to anyone

Muddy but late season golf

OK for a late season bonus round but was muddy in spots and lots of bare spots. OK if you don't mind moving the ball to some where you can hit. It's not Medinah but a place to play in mid November for cheap.

Hard fairway

The fairway was so hard that it was very difficult to get the ball in the air.

Poorly managed

Terrible pace of play. There was no starter, they let a group of 6 play together, and a 2 groups of 4 in front of us were 10 minutes late for their tee time and they still let them play backing up everyone else.

Will not be back as there was no course management, even though the actual course was fun.
