Decent Track
Good conditions overall. Staff all very nice. Kinda of old school wide open layout with some trouble. You can play a hole from multiple fairways everything is in close proximity to each other. Recomend for the price paid. $70. Not sure its worth over the $100 dollar price point they are asking for most times during season.

When paying $99 for a round of golf at a municipal it would be good to have a ranger to keep play moving. 21/2 ours on the front 9 removes a lot of enthusiasm for the round.

Overpriced
Almost every hole straight ahead and wide open with no hazards. Clubhouse is a small, square structure with a small pro-shop and snack bar. Staff very friendly and helpful. I believe it is far overpriced compared to better courses I have played in the area.

Worth a trip
Fun course. Greens were in great shape. Course sets up for birdie opportunities but if you’re out of position you can quickly derail your round. I’d go back.

Bobby Jones - Ross course
Not worth the price we paid, $109/player. No variety to the holes. Boring golf. Club house was mediocre at best. Looked like a mobile home. Just hot dogs and snacks. Course in raw condition.
