Golfer Reviews
Summer golf
I would play this course again. For the price it would have been nice if range balls were included but not the end of the world.
8/16 greens were in rough shape, but not unplayable. Multiple bare spots and burnt ground.
Tee boxes and fairways were well maintained.
Club house prices were highly inflated.
They do have water coolers throughout the course and that appreciated.
I look forward to playing here again in the cooler months.
Good but should be cheaper.
Have played this course twice now both times course is in just okay shape not great. Staff friendliness was truly 50/50 between people that cared or did not and it unfortunately showed. Overall had a great time with my Girlfriend but would not send a serious golfer there unless they wanted to play in two hours and did not care about not so great greens.
Course is in great shape. A few greens were sketchy but overall course was beautiful shape. Everyone has trouble with greens this time of year.
Greens need alot of work
Staff is super friendly, but greens are in brutal shape. They just punched but that wasn’t the issue. Just a ton of dead areas with all dirt. Fairways are good but the greens make it tough.
Aerated
The course itself was good, but I have a policy. No course gets anything higher than 2 stars, if you are charging full price and not telling people the greens were recently aerated. Now, aeration is a necessary aspect of golf to maintain green health, that was not the issue. But be forthright about and let us know when we are booking.
Greens almost back
I hadn't played here in a while since a friend played a few months ago and said the greens and overall conditions were mot good. It looks like they have addressed the problem and most of the greens have recovered and the fairways and tee boxes were great. I will put this course back on my rotation of courses.
