Great old-school style course.

The course is in great shape! Pace of play was good. Finished in 3 hours. Super friendly staff...

As its an old design course its very tight for carts at a few locations. Definitely will come back and play again.

Pleasantly surprised

Upon entering gates you immediately get the feel of a very cool place. The tiki theme through out the property is rare and fun. The par 3, putt putt practice green looks totally artificial, it’s not. The grass is green beautiful and very playable. I was not expecting any of this and given the smiles all around I would highly recommend and play again.

Great shorter course and pace of play

Went for a 730 round and we were done at 1045. Course was very lush. The greens were deceptively fast for it being early and wet. All the staff were very friendly and helpful! It was a pretty short course but very fun and challenging! Would definitely play again.

All it can be

Very tight, short course with a lot of trouble strategically placed. They have used every bit of available property and have done an amazing job with the property they have. Course is well maintained and it has the friendliest staff that you could find anywhere.

Beautiful senior course

The course is well maintained and has nice views. It is a shorter course. See the score card, Greens are well protected by well maintained sand traps. the greens are a bit slow but true and are undulating. Take the time to walk around your putt. Team members, staff, are great! Course and Bar/Restaurant representatives are outstanding. Friendly, competent and welcoming. This course is not for professionals or long hitters, but welcoming and a challenging course for folks wanting a challenge with great sand traps and small greens. I had a good time and enjoyed the course, If you are a good chipper and putter you'll have a fun game.

Lose the bass and party music at the first tee. Instantly made me disinterested in the course.
