Classic course trying to make comeback

Classic course that is in much better condition than a few years ago, but still has a way to go. Greens are slow and the area around the greens are very spotty, thick grass , thin areas, rocks etc make " getting up and down a :crapshoot"
We started late in the day and the back nine we had 2 groups on each tee, for no reason.
The personnel at this course, are hands down the grumpiest and most non friendly people you can encounter. Almost like they are told to be angry and mean.

The course is in very good condition!

The only caveat was the speed of the greens, a little slow, otherwise we had a great day of golf!

Great golf course played for the 1st time

Although the weather didn't cooperate, we had a great time playing the black course. Fog throughout the day hampered the visual aspect of playing golf. We still enjoyed our time and look forward to returning yo play in warmer/clearer conditions.
Facility and both courses are worth the trip.

Interesting layout, but needs more maintenance

Being a public course, you expect slow play, but the course has no rangers to move slow groups, and people have no concern for the course-no one fixes ball marks or rake traps

Great conditions.

The playing conditions were very good. The pace of play was good. Great day for golf! It was good to see the course busier than on other visits. This did lead to a pace issue. The twosome behind us were teeing off prior to our hitting our second shot. Let the group pass at the turn. Back nine was much better.

Looking forward to playing the red course!!!

Even when a little wet after a rain storm the night before the golf course was in great shape. It is one of the better venues of golf in the tri-state area. Go play it!!!

A grumpy Start

I golf here every weekend. I switch between courses. I prefer the blacks myself and heard that many people are in agreement. I have only been golfing for a few years but this year is the firdt ti,e that I have really gotten into it and plan to play till I am no longer physicxally able but that is not important. The course can be difficult at times the greens are not consistent in speeds firmness. One nice practice green for putting the other two are fake greens and the ball does not stop its like pavement.. They do have the First Tee program which I think Is an awesome activity for kids of all ages too keep them busy. Now i will talk about the biggest problem. Everytime I go there to play I am so pumped to get out there by the time I get to the first tee, my attitude has done a 180. The starter At the course which ever one it is I have encountered four are very condescending and always has ann attitude which is sometimes very nasty. And there is definetly certain types of people that are treated much better then others. So that explains the title THEW GRUMPY START So if you play ignore the starter cause i can almost garuntee that he will not be nice. unless your a female. Good Day and Good Golf
