Can't fault

On arrival, had a great welcome gentleman in shop showed us around and explained everything. Even got an earlier tee time as course quiet. Considering time of year, course played really well. No winter tees, and greens were very consistent. Not a long course but the doglegs andset up made you think about your shots. Will be heading back soon.

All Around Poor

I have played this course many times before and it's going downhill more and more, the course was not in good conditions, look like they have done no work on the greens as they were so soft and spongey, the Tee boxes were awful and the fact it was free relief out the bunkers as well shows what little work they do on that course.

The pro had no customer service attributes what so ever so not sure what he's actually there for, and when we had a complaint to make about a group that almost hit my dad with a ball teeing off on the same hole when it wasn't cleared was disgusting for a sport that is meant to be played with respect and etticate!

This course will not be played by us for the foreseeable future and they need a wake up call and put some love and care into it otherwise it will be another course soon that won't exists, Terrible experience!!!

A Great Little Gem

Had a great round of golf in the middle of the week on a gem of course! Both Greens and fairways were in good condition. The tees looked like they’ve been well used. There was a bit of work being done in front of the greens. This was probably the only disappointment.
