Mediocre

I like the course layout, but the course was chewed up. Fairways were a sea of divots, pooling water in places, and pricey. Hopefully course will recover and play better in the fall.

A fairly good golf course and decent power cart

Have played this course for many years. No big changes or improvement and maintained the normal level of service. The power cart is good with GPS and helps to provide accurate distance for club selection. Fairway condition is fair as many dry patches and brown spots and the grass condition is so so. Got special price today from Golfnow and spent the afternoon with some friends before the long weekend. Staff is very friendly with smiling face and taught us on how to play with the GPS (particularly in cutting your strokes without your friend knowing it). The Redcrest is just on the side of the East course, may be one can sneak in to play a few holes and then come back to the East. Think the power cart will stop you going in so have to walk.

Ok track

The course was in ok shape, it was a bit flat, and the greens were a little bit too easy. There was some water and some holes were narrow, but it was generally quite playable. We were a twosome and we played blues on the front and whites on the back as the blues were too long and the whites were too short... all of the par 3's were difficult with the shortest at 157 yds. We finished in 415, right on their time, but we waited at every tee...

Should not be open

Upon arriving I was impressed with the facilities appearance and amenities. This quickly evaporated when we were informed the practice driving range was closed due to water.. Then a work group showed up ahead of us. 3 groups of beginners no one took charge of at all. After over half an hour the fist group of 3 made it to the hole 1 green. A lot due to the fairway being under water. Turned out all of them were under water. You could not drive the cart on anything but the cart path. 3 hours to play the front 9 and several times had to fish our balls out of pools of water in the middle of the fairway. We should have called it a day. Took 30 min to get 2 hot dogs at the restaurant counter staffed with people only interested in taking care of the large group. left very frustrated and disappointed. Looks like a challenging layout and should have been a good day. Will not go back

Upgraded power carts equipped with detailed GPS, online scoring and USB charging ports

It has been a wet and cool May so some spots on the course were damp and muddy. The front nine drained well so it was fairly dry and the greens were fast for my liking. The back nine did not seem to drain well, mosquitoes were plentiful and problematic.

The power carts were upgraded to electric and were equipped with detailed GPS, online scoring and USB charging ports.

The east course was a good test for me as an intermediate golfer. I had a good overall experience.

Jim N...

This course was in fair condition...

But the speed of play was very slow...

The group of 3 players ahead of us Teed-up 30 minutes earlier then us. By the 3rd Hole we were waiting on every hole from then on... When I got to the 12th hole I decided to leave the course, it took 3:30 to play 11 holes.... This was ridiculous.. The course is nice but the Slow Play negated that completely...

Not Happy...

Attractive course

This course is very attractive for me (average score 100).

They have bush, pond that given me pressure also makes game fun. Bunker was very nice sand and maintain well.

Also, cart has GPS navigation that makes easier to see what's heading in front of us and how far.

Unfortunately, we had very chilly wind but we've enjoyed game.

Lots of doglegs and valleys

The scorecard indicates that slope is only 69.5/115, but it seems it was more difficult in some holes as some holes are a bit challenging for some golfers due to doglegs and valleys. Golf layout is not bad. We did not see any marshalls during our play so the pace may be slow in some holes. The power carts are equipped with GPS that also shows if the group is on time or late. It did help to control the pace if the groups follow the info. Overall, it is a fun golf course to play.

Nice Course

This is a good course with fair risk and reward holes scattered around the 18. There are also very long par 5's. The greens are hard and fast and accuracy is rewarded well. The front 9 is open while the back 9 is tighter and more wooded. Almost every hole is a dog leg and there are water hazards on almost every hole. A few of the tee boxes need some work especially the 16th hole. Pace of play was impacted because we were behind a foursome that was behind a foursome that was walking. There weren't any Marshalls on the course even though the GPS fitted on the carts let you know when you are playing behind schedule.

The course is much better than it used to be just a couple of years ago. Seems they have brought some of Red Crest quality to the East course.

Horrible pace of play

My friends and I played on a sat afternoon on a long weekend. We started at 1230 and didn't finish till 6pm. We were going as fast as we could but there must've been a long jam on the course because the people in front of us couldn't any faster either. Good price for the course but I won't be rushing back anytime soon

Cardinal is a beauty of a course

Love this place, great conditions all around, greens are beautiful. Carts are electric which makes for super quiet and good acceleration. Gps included. My only beef was they ran out of towels for the showers at about 7:30pm. Will definetly come back here to play. This course is top notch.
