Great deal and a course worth playing!
Great customer service! You get two free drink coupons with the greens fee. A course worth playing.
Open fairways a pleasure
This course is well maintained. The openness of the fairways promotes faster play . No trees in middle but enough along sides to protect you from errant shots. The greens are very challenging. This really is a hidden gem.
The grounds were well maintained.
The greens were fast and the staff was very friendly.
Good Neighborhood Course
Got a foursome together yesterday and despite the brisk conditions had a great time. Got a good deal through GolfNow and the course was worth it. Pretty interesting and unique layout with pretty small / tricky greens which tend to guard this shorter course fairly well. Greens were in great conditions and rolled very true even with some over-seeding. The fairways and rough were a little thin, but thats to be expected from our summer drought. All-in-all a great little course.
Fairly easy course, mostly flat and open. Good for beginners.
First time playing the course, it was during winter conditions so the fairways were muddy. A few elevate tee boxes and greens help to change up the flat design of the course. The openess of it is very friendly to beginners like myself who often find themselves playing from nearby fairways. Longer hitters are well rewarded if they find the fairway. Greens are not flat, and very fast. Bunkers are few and hazrads are marked, but not easily recognized from afar. Overall nice course for beginning to average players, but not worth paying full price. The hot deal from golfnow.com is the way to go.
Good course for the discounted rate
The course was in pretty good shape for the money. I cant say I'd pay the normal daily fee though. The day i played they mustve just painted the greens and gave them a very fake, turf-like color which threw us off, i kept thinking they'd be fast like golf store fake greens but they were pretty slow. Overall, no big deal, maybe next time pick a lighter color and go a little lighter on the paint? Rest of the course was in pretty good shape, pretty straight forward course. like playing from the blues but the 600 yd par 5 has to be changed, way too long. Pace of play was great but it was a slow day so dont know what the weekend looks like. I'll play there again if the price is right.
Great location and for the price a great value.
This course has some easy holes, some moderate holes and some challenging holes. Pace of play was steady throughout the 4 hours. Course needs some attendtion. Overall course provides a variety of views and challengs.
Very nice course for beginers and intermediate golfers, wide open fairways but just enough bunkers and hazards to make you use most of your clubs.
I would've giving it 5 stars but my cart has run out of battery several times, other then that great overall course.
Nice compact course.
Nice course. It is not too long but tight in spots. It was a decent challenge.
Nice course, the greens were in fair condition
I was there while on vacation in October of 2012. The staff was helpful, and there were enough signs and markers to make it playable the first time. There were enough hills, doglegs, bunkers, etc. to make it enjoyable. The greens were hard, partially brown, and had been recently sliced and sanded. Longer putts were extremely slow and did not roll true.
This course is a great value course.
I play alot of municipal courses and this course is about a 1/2 star above that. They have great prices for the quality of the greens and course. I would recommend it for those who can't afford the $50 green fees but don't want to play at the run down courses. The course layout is challenging with elevation changes and dog legs. Only 2 holes with water. Greens run true.
Older course, but good conditions and fast well maintained greens.
The course is clearly older, but it shows mostly in the clubhouse and the carts. Everything works, but it clearly has been around a long long time. Cart died at 16th, but had a new one quickly from the shop.
Tees, fairways, and especially greens were in GREAT shape. they're putting their limited funds to work where it counts.
The smallish greens were fast and true. uncrowded for a beautiful Friday afternoon. Got around in just under 4 hrs.
