Perfect course for mid to high handicap

Golfed the 18 hole course. 2.5 hour round. Bit short but challenging course. Staff are great, friendly and professional. Price is good

Tuff pin placement

Greens are small and very sloped with a lot of downhill or front of green pin placements which made the putting quite challenge for the average golfer. Overall a good course and enjoyed the round.

New favorite

As someone who struggles with distance, this course was perfect for me. No 3 woods into par fours!

Not worth the money

It is an short course that is attempting to be a real golf course. Golf North is trying to make a silk purse out of a cows ear and it is a failure

Other than the standing water on a few holes due to the intense rainfall this month, the course has never looked greener. Finished my round of 18 holes in 3 hours walking. Friendly staff and good value.

No driver required

A nice short course, with lots of par 4’s that are short enough to reach in 2 without ever using your driver. Good place to focus on improving your iron shots.

Had to wait at every tee (until the rain started), often the group in front of me hadn’t hit their ball when I got there. Probably should space out the tee times a bit more to allow a more fluid playing experience, but it was fun to play a round without needing to pull the “slice-o-matic” out of the bag.
