Pace of play horrible

A group should not backup a high-end course like this one. When groups get behind they should be asked to move to the hole they should be on. Slow play will most definitely make me play somewhere! I was considering membership, but can’t stomach slow play. In my last 4 rounds here, pace of play has been painful and I could never get a rhythm. Had to wait on every hole!

Great course

This is a great course and the greens are in amazing shape. The layout is fun with lots of options off the tee. Not a big fan of bunkers in the middle of the fairway and this has a few holes like that. Lots of blind tee shots too so the first time or two you play there is a steep learning curve. Nothing like crushing your final drive of the day only to come over the hill and see a hazard at the bottom. Greens are in great shape but very tricky if you’re above the hole. Rest of the course is in decent shape but I wouldn’t say they’re in $100 a round shape…. Terrific staff and carts are really nice. Terrible range balls for $10 for 55 balls. Really a fun layout and good course but the price and the greens would deter me from playing it regularly. Greens are too challenging for average golfers and price is more than I can afford to pay.

The people playing out there don't know how to repair ball marks and who ever was playing in front of our group were dragging there feet on the greens.

Pleasant surprise

There are some reviews that are not so great.....my experience was excellent.

The starter who greeted me and loaded my clubs was very pleasant. In the pro shop, they were very friendly. It was a wet day, but the course was in great shape. There was grounds crew out on the course, and they were very friendly. I was in a twosome, and caught up to a foursome of women, some whom were walking. They let us pass, and we then had the course to ourselves.

The course is fun; position is important, especially on the greens. If you are not careful, the ball will roll back down into the fairway.

I paid a senior rate (which I didn't know existed, pleasant surprise)......well worth it.

Excellent experience.

Over Priced

This course is over priced. It’s a good $55-60 course, but not an $85 course. Save your money and go play a course that should be an $85-100 course. Reduce the price by $25 and you wouldn’t have to hustle golfnow to fill your tee times.

Good conditions and fairly busy

This is a local course for me. I used to play it back when it was just 9 holes. Today, the rack rate is steep but there are reasonable ones thru golfnow. The conditions are good. The layout is a little quirky and there's a noticeable difference between the original 9 and the 2nd 9. Half of the holes, I won't see my drives land bc of hills and only 2 greens are somewhat elevated on approach. It winds thru a big housing development but it's laid out well where you won't find yourself hitting close to someone's backyard. Bombers may like this course as there are no severe doglegs and just 2 holes were a hazard traverses completely across the fairway.

I paid $50 on an early Saturday afternoon round and would happily do it again. However, I was informed it was half their normal rate and sometimes cart isn't included. I was questioned by the staff to see my booking confirmation. Apparently, some tee times don't include cart. Luckily, mine included but be advised to check before you book as this could lead to a heated conversation. They need to straighten that out and make it a more enjoyable check in.

Hard greens and blind shots

As only played here once before two years ago, I ended up overshooting on blind shots or ending up in bunkers on blind shots. I suggest you use the online fly-over video available before you play. The little map on the golf cart is difficult to understand.

Not great condition

I have playing here since it was a young 9 hole track. 2nd 9 holes were a great addition to the quite difficult but fun original. Disappointed in the large increase in price over the past few years but with the amazing increase in the development there, I can see the ability to do so. Also the winter CPO rule kept my group away. As for our round, I called to inquire about aeration and was told the greens were almost back to perfect. Not even close, the practice green was slow and bumpy and the course greens were a little faster but very bumpy. Bunkers were not in good shape. Fairways were starting to come in but still thin. The practice area is nice but they need to move the ropes for driving range more often as the area had little grass left. The clubhouse and bar/grill is very nice and snack bar at #10 well placed and easy. Potential to get back to being a great course is there but conditions not great now. Couple good weeks for greens, longer for fairways and bunkers need a lot of work.
