The best golf course in the area

Of course the best public course in the área, we enjoy everything about playing there, the course is easy to play I hit 81 as a 13.9 Handicap. And it has the best views and is very quiet. (We went in June)

Excellent Course for Masters Week

Char Cormier (Director of Golf/GM) and his outstanding staff had the course in excellent playing condition for this year's Masters Week despite the incredible loss of hundreds of trees during Hurricane Helene. While the view was certainly changed, the course was in top-rate playing condition. A wonderful track offering a moderately difficult challenge from the Blue/White tees. The cost was as expected for Masters week, but we were more than impressed and actually went back the following day to play it again. The supporting staff at the course deserves high marks as well. We were greeted immediately at arrival by a team that made a bunch of strangers feel like members for the day. Great attitude and attention to the little details that make the experience even more fun. Strongly recommend you check this place out and make a point to meet/greet Char and his awesome team.

Only recommend on Hot Deal!

I was excited to play this course because I always heard great things. Not impressed! Pace of play was slow and I’m glad i got a hot deal. I would never pay full price if I play this course again.

Nice but still needs work

Course was closed for numerous months to resurface all the greens and then they opened with much higher rates, the greens still need work, if they were fully resurfaced then some of it didn’t take. Still see visible signs of the old damaged areas. For the hike in price I expected the flaws they had to be gone.

Course Review

The course was in good condition considering the devastation from the recent hurricane which took many, many trees down. Greens were good. All in all an enjoyable course to play.
