I Recommend This Course
Good course good greens
Good well maintained course and greens. Good people working and good people to play with I was solo so it worked out when I was teamed with a single and two some. There five people playing in front of us. Better to no more than teams of four playing so it does not create back up.

Pleasantly surprised
I didn’t know what to expect. Going to a public nine hall that could be beat up by so many players, but the chorus conditions were pristine. The people were very nice and to have two driving ranges one grass and one on the mats was impressive. I will definitely go there again. Soon.

Another round at Emerald
The course is in excellent condition, greens were fast and played difficult. What you lose in yardage they make up for on the greens. We are members at a private course but stay loyal to Emerald Lakes when we feel like walking.

Great course, great value!
Nice track, nice layout. Challenging but fair. You have to keep it in the fairway and leave yourself in a good position on the greens.

Best 9 Hole Course in the Area
Great place to test your skills and course management. Some gettable par 4s, a couple of decisions off the tee, and great chipping and putting greens to use before a round. Also, one of the few grass ranges in the area to help dial in low point and ground contact. Highly recommend.
