Decent Course

I've played this course several times based on location and price. It can get pretty chewed up through out the year due to upkeep and play. Overall it has some fun holes and if you can play for $20-$25 it is well worth it. Just go in expecting that some of the greens and fairways will have some bad spots. Luckily I played early spring and it was probably best shape I've seen it.

Great deal for the price.

I like this course. It's never in the best condition but it's cheap and the holes are challenging. The white and black tees are spread out far enough so, as a senior, I'm not temped to try to keep up with the long hitters in my group. Players I've met have always been friendly. The staff is crothchety but in a good way. They treat everyone bad so you don't feel isolated.

This is a nice course on the east side.

I enjoy this course and there are some challenging holes. My only problem is the distance you have to park your cart from the greens. It really makes more sense to just walk the course.

Great Course for a beginner like myself.

The course itself is good and challenging for a beginner. It does get backed up and we were waiting at almost every tee.

The course has a good layout, but needs much work.

Course needs a lot of attention, when on the course there were three carts that i saw died out, on the 17th hole my friends cart died. Would I recommend this course no!

VERY Challenging greens!

This is a fun course to play, but be prepared to lose strokes on the greens. They have some ridges and contours that are nearly impossible and because the greens are so dry, the ball doesn't hold. They should water them down more. The marshalls are young kids and have no clue about customer service and some of the foursomes don't get golf etiquette. They don't play ready golf. Overall we enjoyed the course and will be back!

Great course, great value but no marshal to help with pace of play

We played this course on a Saturday mid day with possibly 25 cars in the parking lot...so not especially crowded. We found the course to be in great shape and a great value for the $30 weekend rate we were charged. We were a twosome followed by another twosome and then two foursomes. I only mention this because after three hours on the front nine, we stopped in the clubhouse and over heard the foursome playing in front of us mention to the staff that there was a problem with the slow playing foursome in front of them. I didn't here the reply. At the 13th hole, the slow playing foursome was just reaching the green. The foursome in front of us were in the fairway, we and the other two foursomes were waiting on the tee [ the twosome behind us had already given up on the 11th hole and went home]. We were at 5 hours at that point. We and one of the foursomes skipped to hole 14 and saw that there were 4 holes empty . SLOW PLAY with no marshal or member of the staff to take the time to see how their course was doing on a weekend. The 10 people i talked to will never come back to the course. Overall, the course was very good but we will never play there again either. What a shame.

course is not what it used to be

greens need mowed shorter/ slower than slow, sprinklers on in places that don't need to be watered. rough is like playing on the moon (rock hard). Sad that course has come to this state. Used to be very nice 2 or 3 years ago.

Could use a bit more water

It was a hot day... 95 degrees... and the course was moist in some areas... but on whole the course was baked... if you miss the fairway who knows where the ball will go... if it hits hardpan you might as well be playing on the parking lot.

And i'm thinking there must have been a tournament over the weekend because the pin placements were some of the toughest i've seen.

Course has gone downhill...

This used to be a course that was kept in good condition. The fairways are very spotty and the greens are filled with ball marks. The staff act like they would rather be somewhere else. There are too many courses around to play a course like this.

Great course with lots of wide open holes.

I got behind a fivesome and they were fairly slow to hit the ball, which made for a longer than average day

Cousre was good and bit crowed due to a scramble going on.

I've played the course many times before. It's been a while, but I had a great time playing and running into friends whom I shared Golf Now with.

Fair for the price.

Course plays through a neighborhood which can be noisy and distracting. Numerous unrepaired ball marks on the greens. Lack of signage makes navigating between holes a chore. Tee boxes were in rough shape but the fairways were good.

Nice layout!

Had to follow a small scramble outing which made it a bit slow at times. A lot of the bunkers were a bit muddy and the greens were a bit slower than I prefer but overall the course was in great shape.

Good public course for the price.

The course was in decent shape. I was able to be the first on the course. The greens had a few ball marks that people neglected to repair.

The par 5 are definitely long. A course that is a little difficult for a beginner, but all in all a good course for the money.

Solid but still a little immature

This is a legit golf course for anyone as long as you play the correct tees. it's very tough from the tips. The areas where you shouldn't hit your ball are still really sparse and there isn't much grass at all. Don't hit your ball there...right? Nice layout and mix of long and short holes. I'll be going back.

Course greens and some fairways need repair--by players

Some greens had many divots that should have been repaired by players. One of two fairways had a spot that was damaged by carts, again player faults. Otherwise great course and had a blast! Will be returning very soon!
