Great open course

I’m a relatively new golfer, so this course is great because it has a good amount of open holes. Though it’s open it still has challenging layouts that have nice shapes and elevations throughout the course. Great value for the price of a round! I come here frequently.

The layout was great. Staff was very friendly and it wasn’t too expensive. However, greens were a bit sandy and slow. Also, bunkers were terrible. Obvious that no money is put into the bunkers. Overall, a good course.
