Great layout
Hooked up with a few buddies in the sweltering heat to play the Willows and the Pines. Great course layout and friendly staff. Stopped in the clubhouse for some food after and the staff were friendly and the Pub grub was right on.
Tee boxes were yellow and beat up, the sand traps were in terrible shape, but the greens were challenging and lush. Fairways and rough were a bit dry but it’s to be expected in this heat wave.
All in all, we were happy with the price we paid and we will be back again.
Dry, brown and burnt out
Pros - great price off Golf now, Greens were in good shape, staff were friendly. Course layout and design was decent
Cons - while the greens were in good shape, the rest of the course was terrible. The fairways were completely brown, burnt and rock hard. The tee blocks were like concrete and chewed up. Many bunkers had been backfilled and those that remained had weeds, and were also like concrete. It was apparent that beyond the greens, this golf course had zero irrigation systems, or if they did, they certainly weren't being used. I think in the spring when mother nature adds some water, the course could be decent, but given its current burnt out conditions, other courses in the area with proper irrigation represent a better choice
ARISS VALLEY FIRST TIME
i have been meaning to play this course for 20 years and wish i had earlier!
There are 3 nines, we played Pines and Willows,.
Many very scenic holes, well laid out, don't feel like you are crowded by adjacent holes. lots of elevation changes, be a challenge to walk and a bit of a journey to next tee on a couple holes but overall easy to navigate.
Decently wide fairways, lots of undulation in the greens and couple blind tee shots, but no surprises over the hill. Trees with low branches are pretty clear.
Couple of holes play over a creek,. The 4th on Pines has the creek bisecting the fairway twice but not extreme carries to clear water on any hole.
Greens were true, some fairways and a few tee boxes were very dry but recent dry weather would account for most of this probably
very friendly staff and were paired up with very nice local couple that had played here and were able to provide some local knowledge.
Will make this a more frequent stop. Not cheap but within local norm s this year
Directionally challenged!!!
Course is challenging but trying to find the next hole is even more challenging. Need better signage.
New management- things look better
Generally in good shape. Bunkers were poor however course is under new management and looks like work is being done. Recommend
Great condition
They were calling for rain so we were one of the few on the course minor sprinkles only had the course to ourselves most of the round:)
