The wind kept us cool

Play was fine but we rented a cart and it was very annoying, it killed at the weirdest places where you would not expect it , like on the cart path next to the tee box. Stupid, and when I pointed it out one employee was snarky, but a younger Latin employee bheatdvit he apologized and said he would check that. Not sure if anything happened but he approach was a lot nicer.

A fun short course

Even though the course is all par 3s, you still have to use your driver on a few holes, unless you’re a big hitter.

Course was in good shape, but they need more signage of where to go from hole to hole. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Decent par 3 course

The course itself was in great shape, golf cart touch screen didn't work and was frozen the whole round despite power cycling it. There are no cart paths or signs directing you to the next hole anywhere on this course so you're left guessing where to go next. We played a couple of the wrong holes before we realized and had to check the map to loop back around and find the 6th hole.

Nice Affordable Track

It was a pleasant experience and a great place to work on your game. The only recommendation would be to work on the tee boxes. Greens and fairways in good shape for the amount of play it gets.

Nice course

Although lots of waiting today, I had a good time playing a couple balls. I don't usually play more than my one ball

but since tee boxes were so backed up I took advantage & made the best of it.

Slow FootGolf / Soccer Golfers

Caught up to, and got stuck behind 6 men playing footgolf / Soccer Golf when I arrived at hole 3. They were taking at least 15 minutes to complete a hole, and had no intention of allowing golfers to play through. I eventually skipped 2 holes to get in front of them, but the foursome behind me were stuck behind them the remainder of their round.....

There are 2 parallel golf holes, and one of the Soccer golf goal holes is situated between the 2 fairways,on a hill. That hill slopes to a fairway the Soccer Golfers are not playing, and because of the hill, every one of their soccer balls ended up in the fairway that I was playing. I had to wait nearly 10 minutes for them to clear my fairway. The soccer goal hole on that particular hole should be moved to the opposite side, near the east fence.

For the amount of play, this track played really well. Greens and fairways are well maintained. Some tee boxes could have been better. Will play a again.

A nice par 3 course

Unfortunately the pace of play was fairly slow due to a "First Tee" day?? Lots of young kids and first timers. Still had a fun day.
