Misleading, but ok

Don't trust the pictures. Fairways are too dry and are basically all dead grass. You can tell rain is an issue there. Greens are great, and tee boxes are fine. For $70-$80, the condition of the course was no where near worth the money, but there's plenty of potential. Hope it gets back to the way it looks in the pictures... but it's got a long way to go.

Course was fun and Challenging

Lots of wild horses and elk on the course, lots of dry areas of vegetation due to lack of moisture, but the course itself was fun, exciting and challenging, especially for a beginner

Greens are in good shape.

Got stuck behind a group of 4 beginners playing out of a single bag…someone called the clubhouse and straightened the extremely slow play situation.

Greens were in great shape for the time of year and lack of rain. Always like playing here with my boys as we always have a good time for reasonable green fees.

Nice track

Fun track.

Greens were really nice, considering lack of rain in the area, rest of the course was in very good condition.

Will play again.

Good Course

This is a great course but it’s not in as good of shape as it is during the spring and summer. I love the layout and the staff is awesome. I would definitely recommend playing this course.
