Nice and convenient

I have played this course for years, I'm always glad to get a tee time, play at a nice and relaxing pace most of the time, the course is always maintained nicely and you can't beat the cost.

Helps improve my game and makes it user friendly for grandkids.

The course is in great shape, much improved over other years and a pleasure to play.

My grandchildren are young teens, 14 and 15. The staff makes them feel welcome and the

Course is not intimidating for them. Yet challenging enough for me also. It has been a wonderful way for me to

Connect with my grandchildren. Thank you for providing this opportunity.

9 hole round with son

Weather was perfect. Found the course somewhat challenging for my 2nd time out this year. Course was swampy in areas but that was expected due to the violent storms that went thru the previous night. Course was a lot drier than expected.

Slow Slow Pace

Pace of play was slow bad we had to skip the 5th hole. No ranger to move groups along. Paid $26 dollars for 8 holes with Golf Now fee for a 530pm tee time on a Thursday night. Never again.

Walked

Rubbed me the wrong way.

We booked on golf now to play "Footgolf 9 holes" for 4 of us. It was a great deal seemingly. We get to the course and they inform us that "Footgolf" is played with a soccer ball. What???? Nowhere on the site did it say anything of the sort. The staff was not helpful, and seemed not to care that this was seemingly a bait and switch. We ended up paying double what we thought we would per player (still a decent price for 9 holes but it just didn't rub us right). We get to the first hole and hit our first shots.... at the wrong pin. Apparently the one we all aimed our first 2 shots at was the "Footgolf" hole, not the actual hole. We played most of the round without an issue. The course conditions were decent for the price. The only other thing was the layout. The last 3 holes are a heck of a walk from each other... through a heavily populated neighborhood. You feel like you've completely left the course as you walk down the sidewalk in front of people's houses as they eat dinner and watch you walk by. I wouldn't say I'll NEVER play here again... but I'll certainly be looking for some good deals elsewhere and use this as a last resort.

Great course for 9 holes particularly late in the day or after work. The holes are challenging enough to keep you involved.

It works

Had a great time with my son. Course will

Throw you a challenge . It's a nine hole layout so you get what you expect but they do have an island hole ( not quite Sawgrass) but still fun....Play from the blue tees. Bar is lacking but they do have cold ones in the pro shop. I will

Be playing again.

Fair in May

First time in 2016, the course had been clean up from all the tree debris and the grass were cut well, compared to last May. If they keep the course clean like this, less geese dropping everywhere, I may play here more often. They finally fence the 8th hole, feet high, no geese on the green.
