After season

Can't believe course was left in such good condition after winter season crowd.

Tee boxes, if you think about it, who cares about weeds and bare spots, everyone tees up, except on par threes the idiots who think they are as good as the pros and most don't bother to fix there divots, those idiots wig me out.

Fairways that I actually hit were mostly turf, if I divot I drop sand in it and the one beside it that the same idiot from the par 3 didn't fill.

Green were the best, first 4 or 5 rolled really slow as if there was not time to trim them, but after that they rolled true, like I said at the beginning greens were in sweet shape after the onslaught of the winter crowd.

Good course but…

Good course BUT it would be nice to tell your customers you punched the greens. Could not putt without the ball going all over the place. Very disappointing.

Course newly aerated

Course looks to be newly aerated, fairways are full of holes, and it also makes the greens very jumpy and hard to put straight

Great greens. Everything else sucks

That's the deal. Really nice greens. Great layout. A bear from the 2 back tees. But the fairways suck. No grass. Lots and Lots of bare spots. Same around the greens. Tee boxes could be worse. Should be better. Cart paths suck. Huge potholes everywhere. And for some reason the backup alarm on the cart is ridiculously loud. Nice bar. Poor service. Barely average food. I got a grey burger. Like it was steamed or something. Not great.

Great Day!

We played the championship course and had an amazing day. The starter (Stu) was very helpful and friendly! The course wasn’t crowded so we had plenty of time to enjoy the game! We enjoyed lunch in the restaurant after we finished and the food was very good!

Good greens

I play here fairly often. As per usual, the greens are very good. Unfortunately, the condition on the rest of this course are not good. The tee boxes suck. This I can live with. But the fairways have little to no grass on them. Every lie is TIGHT. Lots of bare spots in the middle of the fairways and around the greens. But the greens are so good...this, to me, makes it worth it. Btw, the starter doesn't have a clue and doesn't really seem to like people. God forbid they load ur clubs or offer to clean them. But the tip jar is displayed prominently. Play it if ur priority is nice greens. If tee boxes and fairways are important to u, don't.
