Great Course

This course is excellent. Greens are great, Fairway excellent. Sand traps need some fixing. No issues on anything. Wonder to play.

Surprising Good

I heard some bad reviews about this course. They were wrong. The course is in great shape. The greens were weren’t as fast as I like it, but smooth and lush.

The only negative are the bunkers. Like many courses, that’s seems to be an issue. Just don’t hit your ball in them and you’ll be fine 🤣

Keep up the good work, and we’ll be back !!

A frustrating round

We were situated between multiple foursomes for the course's mens night. There were two other Nines we could have been placed on, which would not have been as slow. So the course around us was fairly open, while the nine we were playing was slow. Once we moved to the back nine and the men's night was over, pace of play was FAR better. Greens were in bad shape, and the rough was unplayable.

Northern Dunes

Very few tee boxes with grass on them. Some holes with interesting and challenging layout and designs. Few greens were heavily damaged with large dead spots. Surrounding cottage courses are in better shape at similar pricing.
