Rude is an understatement

Interacting with Randy, Cody and almost every other employee have been my worst experiences at any golf course I've ever been in my life. I'll be taking my son out of the operation 36 lessons immediately, I'm going somewhere else whether I get a refund or not. Professionalism is not part of the culture of this "golf course". We are new to the area and live a few minutes away, I was planning on keeping my son in lessons and practicing here indefinitely. It goes without saying myself and my family won't be returning.

Great 9 hole course

Love playing this course. Always tests my tee shots. Some narrow fairways and well placed water and bunkers. Would play there more often if it was closer to home.

Morning Golf

Tee time at 750a. Got in before a men's tournament. Always like the layout of this course. October so no rain but fairways and greens were nice. The greens were punched a while ago and sand is there but playable. Finished 9 in under 2 hours. We didn't feel like we were waiting for that's fine. It's Saturday.
