Conditions

Told by starter “conditions are great right now”. Multiple fairways patchey, extremely fast greens with chunks and divots throughout, and Tee boxes torn apart. I have played worse but also have played much better.

Tight course, a lot of elevation change, and hazards galore. Challenging and fun but greens and fairways made it unnecessarily difficult.

Questionable

So I showed up about an hr early for my tee time. Got told that it was a single cart for the both of us.

COVID is happening right now. I made two separate tee times just to make sure I had two carts. Anywhere I go except for this place, has realized that.

Course was okay. Not too much of a challenge which is good.

Jjst not happy about the cart situation due to having to be charged an additional $16 if I wanted a seperate cart from my friend. It picks up the pace of play for everyone.

I'd be willing to go back

Always in good shape. Well worth the money

This course is always in very good shape. The fairways are wide. This is not a difficult course and there really aren't any forced shots. The fairways are flat. Very little awkward lying shots also. Bunkers aren't bad. Some rocks but mostly sand. You have to beware of insects that decide to call the bunker their home, but it's the summer time so I've seen that at other courses. Tee boxes are in great shape. There has been very little rain at the time I played so some parts of the tee boxes were hard to put the tee into ground.

Greens run slow but are in very good condition. Most greens are relatively flat with some undulating.

Frinedly staff all the time. No cart person that comes around. No toilets or water while on the course.

Always a good price to play.

Solid local muni

Played as a 4 some in 3.5 hrs for a 11:40 tee time on a Thursday. Course is in as good as shape as ever! Played last year and mentioned the bunkers needed some love. Well, contrary to recent reviews, the bunkers were good. Most needed some sand, but all of them have been attended to recently. More then I can say about a lot of courses coming out of quarantine.

White tees are about 6400 but doesn’t feel that long. It was nice to see a difference from fairways to rough. Tees and greens were in great shape and rolled fast. For some reason they put the hole on 18 in the 6 foot area of the green that was beat up. Still a good day of golf for a good price.

Good shape in general

Course was in good shape in general, although the sand traps need some work and perhaps some kind of drainage system. Greens and fairway were in nice shape and the pace of play was good.
