Great course for a quick 9

This is the first time I played this course, I like the smaller executive courses, I can get in a quick 9 at lunch time.

The course of play today was great, 1hr 40min only had to wait at the 8th tee for about 5 min.

The fairways were well groomed, the greens were soft.

I enjoyed the time today, and will be back.

Rude Staff and Poor Management

Staff routinely are rude to patrons for asking simple questions. The staff love to mismanage tee times, give away tee times, and make snarky comments. The tees are just mats for most holes. The greenskeepers love rolling right in front of shots.

This is my favorite 9 hole course.

Miles in the pro shop is one of the main reasons I enjoy this course so much. He’s very friendly, understanding and just a cool dude. The practice green is very large and nice, the driving range is irons only due to nearby houses. There are 2 par 4’s on the course. The 2nd hole tee box is under repair but can still pull out the driver and hit the green. There’s no water hazards but there are a fair amount of bunkers to create a challenge. After the round they have a really good barbecue restaurant and bar. Friendly staff in restaurant and bar as well. Very quiet and peaceful. Late spring and through early fall they have live bands on Saturday evenings.

First Time Playing

Not complete charge

Over experience was nice. I was expecting to play by myself, but was paired with another threesome. I was unaware of this until after the fact that I got there also I was hit with an extra $20 expected at check-in when I got to sunken Gardens. When using the GolfNow application, it should tell you that an extra charge will be expected when you got there before paying for the teatime that you reserved. I’m not gonna lie for a nine hole course $50 is kind of steep. If I was doing 18 then maybe that would be more of a reasonable price. I would recommend somebody here but if you do not want to play with people you do not know and I expect you to come with at least two or three people just so you are not pushed into another group game and would hope to see whatever is expected to pay at the place before setting up my teatime because honestly, that was probably the worst part of it all. Besides that it was a really nice course
