Course conditions were horrible

The greens were the worse I’ve ever seen on any course we’ve played. The greens were so bad took away from the fun of the game. Was told there were mechanical issues and due to that the greens were bare and the dirt was black in many places. There’s a group of us that play together and we typically have 8 playing at a time ( 2 tee times ). We all agreed that this would be the last time we played there. For the greens fee that we paid, you would expect better conditions.

Terrible Course Conditions during peak season

Terrible course conditions during peak season… Apparently the greens were aerated (which is understandable) but the grounds keeper mentioned neglect due to improper mowing heights (cutting grass down to dirt) and lack of water causing the greens to turn black!

Paid full price for a terrible round and experience. Will not be going back.

Great design but greens are rough

I enjoyed the round on this challenging course. Unfortunately, many of the greens are in rough shape which impacted the putting. I will return but will give the greens some time to recover.

Poor green conditions

For the most part the course was in good condition. However 14 greens were not in good condition. It looked like they were losing them. The maintenance guys told us they had punched them recently. There were a lot of bare areas on the greens making putting unfeasible so our group adopted a 2 putt limit.

Greens are in rough shape

To start the fairways and tee boxes are in very nice shape; but they have an issue with the greens and I hope they come back. They said something happened after they punched them and whatever it is, fungus, heat, overfetilze it has ruined them and many are bare or barely have any grass. They are actively working g to solve the problem and I hope they do as fairways are in really nice shape. They need to be offering discounts to play otherwise it’s not worth it.

Greens are awful

I’ve played this course off and on for a few years. They continue to go down hill for the price. Great experience with the starter and rangers but the greens need to be dug up and redone..Absolutely awful and not usable. They charged $87 at a discount price. Won’t play there again!

Criminal Green

Someone did a chemical peel on the green about three weeks ago, don't expect the green to recover in early autumn.

Poor Greens Condition

75% of the greens were in extremely poor condition. Could have been diseased or poor maintenance, not sure but no mention of this on GolfNow. Wouldn’t have played here if it had been disclosed. Intentional non disclosure is a bit disappointing and feel a bit ripped off.

Greens were disappointing

The course was in good shape. Tee boxes, fairways, sand traps were better than I have seen in a while. However, about 14 of the greens were in terrible shape. It looks like they cut them too short and some kind of fungus is killing the grass. This time of year Bermuda greens should be in perfect shape. It was very disappointing to pay full price and have to deal with something like that. It was worse than aeration and sanding.

They are having a few problems with the greens

Love the front nine layout more than back nine

Excellent set of par 3s

However apparently the bent greens were excellent until the punched them and now full of bare spots.

There we quite a few people out working on the course as we played which is encouraging.
