First Time Playing

Ruined birthday round of golf

Took my son out for a round of golf for his birthday and turned into the worst round of golf I have ever endured. First the back up so many tee times together that we started 20 minutes late and forced to play with another group just to get started. Took 3 hours to get through the front 9 alone and 40 minutes to get through just 10 and half of 11 on the back before completely giving up and exiting the course all together. We both did not have 5+ hours for a round of golf and were spending more time waiting than playing. So in the end payed for two full rounds of golf and had to call it because of the above stated. I would not recommend this course for the way they run it to any friend of mine that enjoys the game of golf. Needless to say it will not be returning to this course in the future what a horrible experience.

Great course to work on your game

Fairways and greens in great conditions. Course makes you pay if you don't stay in fairways which makes a great challenge. Staff is great. Love the changes in elevation. Overall a nice course

Slow pace

Speaking for a large group of frequent players of local courses we really wish they would stop setting teetimes every eight minutes apart, especially on this course with the uphill par four followed by a part three it seems like it is always running 35 minutes to an hour behind pace of play right off the get-go. Besides that good course conditions and overall good value for your money no amazing thrills just local course that’s hanging on.

Bad payment details

I used the Tee Off/ Golf now app to pay for my round only to find it didn't actually pay for the green fees. Golf Now charged $9.50 a golfer just to make the reservation and I still had to pay the remainder at the course. I have used this app many times and have always paid for the entire round through the app but with this transaction I apparently only paid for the convenience of making an online reservation. I don't know if this was a Golf Now problem or the golf course but the actual rate at the course was cheaper than what I paid....seems like a SCAM!
