Beautiful surroundings, great course!

I always enjoy playing at this course. Everyone is very friendly and courteous. They need to improve some of the cart paths.

VUE Challenging

While the course is challenging because it is very hilly, the layout is great and it is in great condition. The fairways and greens are pristine and are all fun to play.

turned out ok

threatening weather never happened. course is under construction so a little rough. Cart paths were inconcistent but the new asphalt gives you hope. lots of blind shots that to a first time player caused some consternation...and lost balls.

would play it again ina couple of years when work is finished.

Great course. The steep incline on the ninth hole was very challenging. One thing I would ask is that the sand be better tended to. It played like cement. Overall very nice course with very fast greens.

Course still needs a lot of work

Website says they fully renovate and had a grand reopening. Place still is in shambles Needs a ton of work. Range hasn’t even been started. Clubhouse still has Sheetrock open. Price is no bargain.

Would be great in a few years

They have certainly put a lot of money into the restaurant and banquet area, albeit that isn't quite finished yet with work to do at the bathrooms and other areas around the pro-shop. We had a "hot deal" through GolfPass for it and gave the course a try. It was a nice layout with some challenging holes, but apart from the fairways, the rest of the course wasn't in the best condition. Cart paths and everything around the perimeters of each hole were in poor condition. There were patches of dirt throughout the course, and you could tell they are trying to put money into it. The bunkers were primarily small rocks, and the greens weren't in great condition. Though, the greens seemed to be in poor condition because of the players, not the course staff. Someone had taken their putter into the green on multiple holes, causing gashes, and people had driven carts right up to, if not onto, the greens which made chipping conditions difficult. In a few years and with a good amount of money, I expect this will be a great course to remember, but right now, it played as a "value" course.

Still waiting

This course had fallen off BUT they have done MAJOR renovations. The greens and fairways have improved dramatically.

There is just a lot more work to do.

You can see the work being done. And the plans going forward. But I wish I knew it was still under construction in many areas. I am very excited to see what the VUE will look like in a couple years

Getting Better

I haven't played the course in 2 years, so I was interested to see the changes. The club house, bar and pro shop look great. The fairways and greens were in very good shape. Greens a bit too slow. I don't care for all the tree cutting that they have done, but it almost appears like they're switching over to a linx course. The sand traps are terrible, no sand only clay and stone. The cart paths are getting better but are still embarrassingly bad. Probably won't play it again until next year.

Good Course, But Still Needs Work

Me and my buddy try to play here a few times a year to see how they are progressing with their renovations. The course is the best it has been in years. I still think the price is a bit high for the condition the course is in. On top of it all, I don't think they realized it was a holiday yesterday, because the double booked. They had a weekly Sr league playing in the morning so all of the tee times got pushed back by an hour or two. I was most disappointed by this.
