July 2014

The course was in really nice shape, more so then it has been in the past. The parts that were looking a little ragged last year were much better managed and overall it was just a better round of golf. I will go back to play more this year!

Very good value

Very good 9 hole course. Pretty shallow and challenging. The value for the rate paid was pretty much unmatched for the region. Absolutely worth trying out.

Walked

Took over 3 hours to play 9 holes

Our threesome had an early afternoon tee time, but when we arrived we were told they were "running late". We finally teed off 50 minutes late, waited at every hole, and there was even a group of 6 playing behind us. And if you are walking be advised there is about a 10 minute walk between hole 7 & 8, and 8 & 9. Management is totally clueless about time management and obviously overbooked to make $. My first and last time playing there.

Nice casual course

This is a great place to play for the casual golfer on a budget. Whether you are a terrible golfer or a great golfer anyone can play here and not feel intimidated by the rich country club feel of other courses.

First time out

The 9 hole course was surprisingly in decent shape for early in the season. The only thing was they didn't really know how to do the golf now app. I believe I paid for a cart on top of my fees, but that it was supposed to be included. I will have to be more diligent checking my receipt vector time. An honest mistake. They are very friendly people

Don't ever play this place

This is honestly the worst golf course I have ever player. Where do I begin. First off it took my dad and I 2 and a half hours to play 8 holes. Yes we played 8 holes. We skipped a group on 7 and played 8 and 9 in about 15 minutes. If we stuck behind these clowns in front of us it would have been a post 3 hour nine holes with a 3:03 tee time. That is also with another foursome in front of us leaving after five and us joining two nine year old kids. The course is non maintained at all. Greens are awful, fairways are awful, tee boxes are awful. Pro shop is clueless about pace of play. We had a tee time and they let the two nine year olds tee off before us even though they were walk ups and we had a tee time. Postponed our tee time about 5 minutes. Just atrocious. Never play this course. Aside from the island green this course is worse than Goodwin Park. This course should be leveled and made into houses ASAP.

Decent course but restaurant went downhill

This course is what it is. An average, mediocre 9 hole layout at a fair price. The best holes are the first and the par 3 8th hole which is an exciting island green. The course was maintained and in decent shape. Unfortunately what was one of the best things about the course, their restaurant, was an embarrassment. Still displayed a full menu but told us all they had was pizza and pasta due to lack of food delivery. They did not even have the Golf Channel on the televisions.
