Challanging

The course is playing hard right now. Tricky pin placements and greens are inconsistent. Some are normal and some are very fast. But greens are fairly good shape for as hot as it has been. me and my partner have played well at this course in the past. A great value. Best county course by far.

Payed 20 for a round including cart

Can't beat a 20 dollar round with cart. Tee boxes need some work and some greens had some damage.

Hidden Gem with a smile

This course was off the main path for sure, and was where I thought nothing would have been. However, the course was nice and with fairway's that allowed for some inaccuracy and nicely kept greens that were challenging. But what was so impressive to me was the staff. I never have felt more welcome and treated with such kindness in any past golf experience. From the moment I arrived to verify tee time, at the turn for a snack, and returning after 18, everyone was so nice. I never have written a review for any past experience of any type but this course was such a standout in staff kindness that I wanted to take a moment to share and if you find yourself in the area, I would recommend grabbing the clubs and heading over.

Challenging greens to putt on! Fun course!

Had a great time playing with my daughter who plays Junior Golf. This golf course is both family friendly and challenging for the single digit golfers. The greens were in great shape and the course is situated in a very quiet and peaceful location.

The clubhouse also has good food and a large menu!
