Major Disappointment!

Greens just aerated and impossible to putt. Course has an obligation to inform services and services like Goifnow have an obligation to inform players. Also price should reflect compromised greens.

Great public course In the OIB area

We really enjoyed the layout and challenge of This course. The tees were rough, probably because we were the first group out. The greens were tough because they were just dressed, but I’m sure they would be great otherwise.

I would recommend this course if you’re in the area.

Excellent Course

I played as a single with 3 guys who live on the course and they were great, Bill, Jeff and Paul. We had a fun day. This course might be the nicest around. From tee to green everything is exceptional. If one issue, the greens were very slow, but in great condition. You will not go wrong to play here. They take care of your clubs from the time you drop them off at club drop until they show up on your cart. Workers are great/friendly.

Rude marshal

I played with my dad today and we were paired up with a very nice father and son. Everything was going great until the marshal came by about halfway through the back nine and rudely told us we needed to pick it up. We really did not think we were holding anything up, but it made me pretty mad, and then he came by a couple holes later and did it again. We finished 18 holes in 4:20, so really not sure why he got on us. Will be my last time there.
