Bombs away!

I enjoyed the course. Pretty short but really good for practicing the par 3’s and iron shots.

JoJo and the Asian guy in the pro shop were both super cool.

Thx, chris

Very disappointing

Poorly kept and pricey. Not going back. It was very bad. I’m not one to write reviews but for $55 that was hot garbage

Tuesday morning

Tee time 7am, 2some, nobody in site. Nice chilly day with nobody in front or behind us. Finished round in about 3 hrs. Thick grass if you're not landing on fairway. $45 w cart, wish it was cheaper.

50$ and all I got was a double bogey

Booked the course because it looked nice for the price. The price was higher than the app made me believe. Lost a ton of balls not because I shanked them but because the rough is so overgrown I couldn’t find my neon pink balls in the grass. I’m not great at golf but my friend who is had the same experience. For 50$ this course is really bad, I’ll not be back.

Grass is still a bit long if not in the fairway. Greens were soggy

Loved that there was no waiting at all through our round

Pretty empty and we finished 18 holes in less than 3 hours

Very relaxing and a beautiful day for a round of golf

Excited to see what the construction brings to the restaurant at the course

Darn near unplayable

Course was not in the condition it was first time played. I expect rough but this was beyond . Every golfer I spoke with had issue with course and them mowing created an even worse environment.

Playing a good round of golf

Pace was a little slow because I was by myself but the threesome asked if I wanted to join them which was nice of them ,and the pace was not a factor anymore.

Nice course

Nice course, on the short side but fun. A few of the holes can be interesting with narrow fairways and blind tee shots. All around a great value and fun course.

Nice executive course

This is a nice executive course. It offers par 3 and par 4 holes. The layout is interesting and there are sand traps, water features, doglegs, and some elevation changes. Greens are in good shape. It's a good place to work on your short game.
