Golfer Reviews
Good value
Good course layout and design. For the most part course was in good shape. Greens were recently top dressed so putting was difficult but this is to be expected. Tee to green pretty well maintained. I would play again.
World Cup Review
My friend was visiting from VA and we decided to book a tee time. Course was mostly empty. Staff was friendly and clubhouse is a nice place to relax and grab a drink and bite. We went off early. Course was in good shape with the exception of the greens. There was a lot of inconsistency between greens. Some holes the greens were so spotty it was impossible to get a true roll. Others were in excellent shape. The putting green was in similar shape. Some of the issues could have been mitigated by pin placement. Overall, we had a great round and experience.
2yrs later
Last played this track 2yrs ago and it's still a gem. There's a little TLC needed on a few greens due to water damage done remember the exact ones
Dr.
overall it was a very good golf course except phase
Greens have some damage
Overall good shape, a few greens were rough and dead spots
Nice layout
Friendly atmosphere w. Course layout by Davis Love 111. It could play from hard to easy depending on tees chosen. Lots of roll because of hard ground and hot weather.
Several green had fungus issues but were maintained as well as they could be. The rest of the greens were in good shape. As with all courses right now the heat is a problem with keeping the fairways soft but staff was doing a good job keeping them watered.
Great Deal
Can’t beat it for the price and Course Condition of course. Layout is great. Greens are true.
