Wouldn’t pay half of $85 to play here

Course appears to have no water it was so dry and patchy. Far too many holes close to each other also bring your hard hat.

Good Old Course

THe course is relatively easy, flat, and the greens wee okay. Being one of the oldest in the area, it is a must play at least once. The facilities are in a state of temporary transition. The 18 hole putting course is fun. The putting practice area is small, and there is no driving range - hit off mats into net - 2 bays, The fairways were in pretty good shape, and the layout is typoocal of an older course.

Greens fees reasonable

The course was quite narrow and had a lot of dog legs. For what we paid it was a good value.

Needs work.

The course is a bit rough to play on. More maintenance would help. New facilities that are being developed look like they will be fun. No driving range but a huge 18 hole putting green. Great for group competitions. There are simply to many cross overs where you need to watch carefully where you are going.
