This course is a shambles.

Fairways are terrible; There’s no grass! Everything is brown and dying. Every lie was on the sandy sub-soil, which not only made it hard to hit the ball, but impossible to target a shot. If you hit near the green the ball rolled away because there wasn’t any grass to stop it.

It’s sad, I’m told this use to be a beautiful course, now it’s a mess.

I’m also told they spent a good deal of money on the clubhouse (it looks it), to bad they didn’t spend a few bucks on grass seed.

Great course to play

I invited a friend that never been there before and he really enjoyed it, like I did. Staff was very nice and course was challenging enough but not too hard for intermediate level players

Worth the deal

I’ve played this before and to be quite honest I’ve always been satisfied with the course. The conditions aren’t the greatest in reference to the fairways but the greens were very good and fast. Layout is awesome. If you can get this course on a deal it’s worth playing. Anything over $65

Isn’t worth it in my opinion. Friendly staff, I cant complain . I will never forget however my riding partners bushnell speaker not being turned in. We were done with 18 holes, brought our bags to the car and realized we didn’t have it. Walked back from the parking lot and they cart guys said they didn’t have it. Very disappointed

Depends on the price

Fairways are very hard and dry. Greens are patchy I got a hot deal on T-OFF so the price was reasonable for the quality of the course. If you have high expectations this might not be the course for you.
