The course was in great shape under new ownership. New carts! A work in progress… Was really hoping to buy lunch after… a bbq burger or sausage but I guess staff busy doing other things… beer could have been colder after a hot day!

Fairway conditions have improved, bunkers needed a lot of attention, greens were awfully slow & fuzzy starter was still lost in space.

Once Is Enough

Firstly, the folks I dealt with were very nice. Pro shop staff and starter were friendly and very accommodating.

Also can’t complain about $33 hot deal.

The course however left a bit to be desired. Greens were quite hard but rolled quite slow. I guess this was necessary because some of the pin locations were kind off silly. Pretty much every hole had huge slopes running right and left from the fairway. Quality tee shots down the middle rarely stayed on the short grass, routinely running into the rough. I guess playing and getting to know the course more would help, but there’s really nothing compelling to go back for.

Once was enough.

Course conditions were not great

The course needs to be better maintained. The layout and property has huge potential but the fairways and greens need a lot of attention. It is early in the year so I’ll try it again in a month or two to see if things improve.

It’s improving

Have played this course a couple times a year for the last dozen years and previous owners really let it go. New ownership has worked hard at improving it and it’s starting to show. Will definitely golf there more often if the changes keep up and gets better
