Beautiful course

The staff either allowed or seemingly overlooked a 5-some playing in the group ahead of mine. Overall a great facility though.

Challenging but Forgiving

Brilliant experience. From included cart to included balls on a grass range. Great amenities, course was in fantastic condition. Challenging fairways with pinestraw off line making it easy to find misguided balls. Very challenging greens in places, especially 18!

Couldn't speak more highly of this place and will be returning soon.

Beautifully challenging

Perfect day for golf, ended up playing a second round. Greens are great, fairways are friendly to the higher handicap, challenging contoured course. Will definitely play again soon!

The fairways and sand traps were in.very good condition. However the greens appear to have been neglected. It was quite a surprise and quite a contrast. They were in a condition one might expect to see at the end of a long hot and dry summer. Hopefully the staff will quickly address this problem so that others will not experience the disappointment my foursome had.

Great Course but Slow Pace of Play

Played on 4/17/25 and really enjoyed the course. Even though the greens had been punched a few weeks earlier, they were fast and rolled pretty true. Unfortunately the pace of play was very slow. Multiple times we had to wait 5-10 minutes for the groups in front to clear. Fairways were still pretty dormant but felt good. Definitely playing again. Hopefully pace of play improves.
