Needs a lot of money...

Have played this course a number of times but it has been over a year since last outing. If anything the course is in worse shape than our last outing and it was pretty bad then.

Golf carts are in rough shape...parking brakes did not work on either cart in our four ball. Cart paths, simply put, are dangerous. Many tee boxes are actually “domed.” Pin placements must have been done by the “Pin Placement Clown.”

This could be a really good course but needs a lot of money and a lot of time. In the four years that we have played this course we have seen no indication of either. We won’t be back. Unfortunate conditions for what could be a very nice piece of golf real estate.

Pace of play is awful

This is the third time I have played this course. I like the course, its a bit tight but nice. It is not worth more than $40. The problem is everytime I come it takes 6-6 hrs for a round. The POP is the worst. Everytime! They never have a starter and no one manages tee times as far as I can tell. I was with a foursome on the teebox, looking at a foursome in the fairway who was looking at a foursome putting. Don't think I will be back anytime soon.

Chaodic

Went to the course to hit a bucket of balls before the round and no one was at the desk for check in. waited over 20 minutes and still no one showed up. someone in front of me was trying to pay for green fees and went to the bar to get help. she came up but unable to collect their money and told them to go on (to bad I pre-paid). No starter, and with the chaos at check in several groups started at once causing a very long front nine. Had to skip a hole to get past a really slow 5'some on the back to play the last 7 holes in an hour. Total round was over 4.5 hours with the mess at the beginning. Usually I play this course in less than 3 hours (group of 2), and after today may look elsewhere to play for awhile.

Same course, same issues

Another pleasant round but traps and cart paths are still in their state of disarray. Some traps are better but others remain half repaired.

There was a very slow foursome I had to play around by skipping a hole but that happens very seldom. This is a good course to play and could be great with some finishing repairs.

Great Layout

Very well designed layout which requires you to play lots of different golf shots. Greens were fast and smooth. Fairways were quite dry and needed water. Some more maintenance and attention to detail would make this a 4-5?star layout. Cart paths in particular need work. Still enjoyed my round.

Great course, fast play

Played on a beautiful Tuesday before the masters, no crowds played in 3 hrs. Greens in good shape, especially on back 9. Open layout, card looks like a lot of water, but doesn't really come into play too much. Good course

Try it and you'll like it!

Golf the good old way...a yardage book. Nice layout for sure that needs some TLC. Greens in very good shape and putted true for the entire loop but, a little rough around the edges. Traps and cartpaths needs some work (and the club will be addressing). Good challenge and I will be back.

Needs work

No starter on course. 5, 4 Somers on first tee. Tee time was 10:12 didn't tee off until 10:40. The cart paths are terrible. Need to go very slow or break your neck. Had a flat tire on course. (I'm sure because of cart path condition) sand traps were unplayable.

Thank you for your comments. We apologize that your experience was not up to your expectations. We are in the process of redoing the bunkers. That's why they are have been dug out down to the drainage. This project should be completed by June. Cart paths are scheduled to start being repaired after that. We appreciate your business and hope your that our renovations will help in the future.

Not bad for March in Georgia

Course was not busy at all although it was a cooler day. Cart paths are rough, sand traps appear to be under construction.

Other than those 2 things course was in March condition, greens were fast and it was a prett good layout. Had some interesting drives between holes. Would definitely go back with Golf Now rates.

Great layout...

Course has a great layout and the greens were in good shape...fairways not so much and quite a few bunkers being re-done (which is a good thing). You can tell that this course was excellent st one time, but could really use some maintenance at this time

Great Experience

Great experience and value. The staff was very informative before our round. Loved the layout and the greens rolled perfect with nice speed. They were in the process of redoing some of the sand traps which will even make this place better. The cart paths were not great but our group stayed in the fairways and rough. The golf course was busy but we moved along smooth.

Not like it use to be!

Few years ago the course was one of the nicest courses in the area. But lately the past year two is one of the worst. The cart path is terrible. Better off finding you a better place to play. Crosswinds would be a much better choice. So sad such a nice course go to this condition.
