Staff was friendly. The back 9 is considerably harder then the front 9. Also the greens ended up being super quick.

These folks are doing the right things

They offered individual carts for people so "social contact" could be maintained. That was cool. They took up all the bunker rakes so you didn't have to handle. Obviously golf norms were abandoned which was cool to me. No touching the flags, again cool. With the new golf rules, made sense. I'm glad they're still allowing people to play!!! WITHOUT jacking up prices. A must play for golfers. I'm impressed with this place!

Nice Course

Course in beautiful condition. Greens are very good. Fairways always mowed and no trash present. Dog legs are well placed with sand traps. Water comes into play at several holes. Course is surprisinly well drained considering the amount of rain. Golf carts are in very good condition. If you have never played this course, I recommend that you do.

Nice course

With all the rain we have been having I was impressed as how dry the course was. It drains well. It is well maintained and the greens are in great shape. The staff is always friendly and very welcoming. Would recommend this course for sure.

The pro shop staff is terrible

The older lady that works in the front made the experience of this course awful. She was rude and takes her job way to seriously . The course is good for the price but she needs a new job .

Layout includes enough water and sand to make play interesting Fast greens make birdies downright challenging. Very well maintained. Even the rough is better maintained than most courses. Excellent putting green, separate chipping area and practice range. Pace of play best at mid day. Very good overall experience.
