Great course for the $$$

Course conditions were phenomenal for this early in year. Best in this area. Play was slow, but I blame that on the beautiful day. Everyone was out playing! Great course. Will be back

Great Course !

Played in the Fall, Trees were stunning to look at, scenic views from atop the Hills. Challenging greens, for sure, but all in all a fair course to play.

Nice challenging course

The course has many tight driving holes. Also have a few holes with blind tee shots. I would say a good mixture of tough and easy holes. It rained for a couple of days before I played the course and the course was still in good condition.

Great challenge; back nine nonstop.

Good design. All you want-water, sand, hills, doglegs and greens surrounded by water. Nice double green on 9 & 18 with the holes playing around opposite sides of a large pond. Lack of GPS made first visit tough on water carries & layups.

Nice Course

Not a top notch course, but one worth playing. It has a little of everything from bunker lined fairways, water, and substantial rough. The course was in decent shape for a public course, nothing too special. Overall I would recommend.

Excellent, difficult course. It would have merited 5 stars except the greens were a little beat up and the sand traps were in poor condition.

Great course

For late summer course was in good shape. The greens were a bit chewed up, but all in all a good course. One suggestion. They need to mark the fairways better with yardages

Nice layout needs some repairs.

Great layout, back nine is tough and requires well placed tee shots. However, this course needs some work or money tossed at it to be above others. Some fairways have issues and way to many unfixed divots. My understanding is this is now bank owned and for sale at a great price...

What a great value

The course was in phenomenal condition, and played very difficult. At twilight we virtually had the course to ourselves. We very much enjoyed the experience, and will definitely be back again.

challenging but fun

This course was challenging, you have to be a straight hitter as most holes have danger on both sides of the fairway. It requires the right club off the tee, not always a driver. Course was in good condition, but greens were a little slow. Overall well worth the money.

A superb track. A must visit.

This course far surpassed my expectations. It is very well maintained and has plenty of course character that would satisfy most everyone. I loved the fast greens that rolled true and accurately knowing that the result is all on you and not spotty greens. Definitely returning to this place. The only shortcoming I encountered was that the ballwashers needed attention. Some were dry or had no towel. Outside of that, it was well worth the drive.

Good Times

Considering the long, cold and wet spring, the course was in pretty darn good shape. My only slight negative, with an emphasis on slight, is that the greens weren't as capable of holding spin shots as they normally are. Whether it be be a pitch, chip or full shot. Greens were a bit "soft". I gotta think that the normal conditions of the ensuing summer will straighten that out.

A thoughtful course with variety and fun abounding. Have played it many times and will continue to do so. Oh, and the staff was an 11 out of 10. Super nice from beginning to end.

Fun layout.

We enjoyed the challenge. There is a lot of water and some very tight fairways.The course is very scenic. The condition of the course could be better. I played the course a few years ago and couldn't wait to play it again. Unfortunately the condition of the course wasn't what it was before.
