This is a Par

I booked this thinking it wasn't a par 3 course. I was a little let down that it was a smaller course, but it didn't let down. Its in the middle of a housing community and some holes are intimidating because of how close the houses are to the fairways/ greens.

Great course to work on irons/ short game! Better than beating balls at the range!

Average conditions for an executive course

This is my "home course", so I'll be back. The conditions could be better. There is a lot 9f long term ground repair. The greens are in good condition, so that is important. Clubhouse is decent but small. Its worth the $30ish for a round.

It is a beautiful course.

I played with my husband. This course has 4 par fours. I love playing it here. My husband plays once a week. It lets you drive the ball, layup, chip, and putt. I also play once a week in a women’s golf league. This is the best executive course.

Nice course

Nice course layout with some good elevation changes, greens were fast but mostly smooth. The only con is the houses lining the course so just make sure you dont hit an errant shots.
