Good Value Course

Course layout is fun, greens and some fairways could be in better shape as there is sand areas on half the greens. Course is good enough for the money you spend on it.

Getting there

Played on misty rainy day so pace of play was very good. Greens were rough fairways a little sparse. Been very dry but recent rain should help. Plan on playing next week so I will see if it helped. Staff was warm and kind.

Sad

My husband and I have been going to this golf corde every weekend for awhile . We avoid certain places due to the fact that the pace is way too slow and they were booking too many tee times and it just made you lose interest . The last 2 out of 3 times my husband has quit his paid for rounds and left early due to every tee box behind so backed up . This corse under new owner ship has now come close to being compared to other corses and their over booking . The greens were beautiful when we started going now they are sub par . We will still play here but they. Need to re evaluate .

Greens were in bad shape… diseased and very hard likely due to the drought in this area, but putted fairly well for the most part. Fairways dry and lacking decent grass. Would play again at discounted rate.

Has gone totally downhill

I have played this course many times over the last couple of years, but this was by far away the worst condition I’ve ever seen it in. The fairways were bad and the greens were terrible. Also checking in took almost 30 minutes as the lady behind the counter continued to try to talk to everybody and take phone calls at the same time. I definitely will not be back.

Rough conditions

There is nothing positive about this course, overall conditions are borderline atrocious. Greens are laughable, fairways similar to cow pastures and tee boxes were smashed by trolls. For the money is not even close to acceptable. Disappointing is not even a way to frame it. Avoid at all cost.

Slow and painful

It was brutally slow from the start. 2 groups waiting at every tee box. I know it was the week before Masters Week but shouldn’t have packed tee times like that. I liked the course layout, but conditions were horrible. Greens were burnt and unplayable. Fairways were thin and sparse. We left after 9 holes because the wait wasn’t worth it.
