Like a nice motel 6

Conditions were pretty good. Par 29 and my foursome finished in about an hour and a half. Pretty good if you ask me. No water = no lost balls. Nice putting area and range. Irons only on range. BBQ joint on site is great! Nice area to eat and drink too. For a short 9 hole course I think it’s great!

Incredible Calie

Most fun 9 hole course I’ve played. Such pride in conditions and perhaps the nicest, most engaged pro shop worker. I arrived at 6:15AM and he was ready for me by name, took time to explain how things worked, and greeted me afterwards. Really an amazing experience.

Nice little gem!

This is a great course to take budding golfers. It’s nice that there are two par four holes. I love the trees as a provide shade while you’re waiting to take your next shot. I will definitely bring my family here again.

First, Last, and Avoiding

First, last, and avoiding this place going forward. Dude in the pro shop is a total downer that needs to get a life. He makes it a goal to ruin everyone’s vibe.

Club house employee is trash

The course is great I love playing here. But I’ll tell you what I’m very close to never going back because of the miserable guy that wants to mess with everyone working the clubhouse. Get a life bro. Let people be happy. Thanks nice course
