Pace of play

Two groups on the course held up the entire back nine and most of the front leaving a five hole gap on front of them

There was no ranger on the course to deal with.

Made the round very disappointing

Bring lots of balls

Nice staff. Tight course and full of water. It’s a challenge for even good golfers. Probably won’t play again as their sister property Oliver’s nest was better.

Nice course, good value

This course is in very good condition, considering it's close proximity to cottage country. If you're using a yardage watch or app, the nines are reversed.

It seems like the two nines were built at different times, with different designers. The front nine is shorter and narrower, with most holes carved out of the woods. The back nine is longer and more open.

The greens are a bit on the slower side, but in very good condition.

Overall, good value for your money.

Nice course

1st time playing there.

Golf was well kept and somewhat challenging with water and sand on most holes.

Well worth the money.

A good game

Course was very wet but the front nine was better than the back. Had to go cross country through fescue and two holes to get to 16th and 17th tee blocks due to humongous puddles and pooling of water. The cart path from 15 to 16 was underwater. That being said, it was in great shape and we had a good time.
