Patchy fairways

Even playing winter rules it’s tough finding much grass depth on the fairways to move your ball to.

Short Course

This is a very short course. Many 90 yard holes back to back. The course was in bad shape. The best part were the tee boxes. They were decent. The greens were pretty torn up and variable speed. The picture is wonderful, but deceiving.

Good overall...

Be cool if they would group the singles together into a twosome. It might speed it up.

Used cart

Course Condition

Club house and range nicely maintained Cart paths in good shape. Greens were in good shape but only negative is people are not fixing their ball marks. A LOT of un repaired marks both new and old. Tee boxes were a mess. Patchy grass/dirt with some on severe slopes for a tee box. Fairways average. Have played this course before and will play again knowing what to expect. good round to enjoy with friends who share a "not too serious" approach to a round of golf.

Thank you for leaving a review. We are working to do our best to mitigate the impact that ball marks have on the greens. The increased play has contributed to this. We hope to see you again soon for a 5-star review!
