Where’d the $13.3 million go

“Not sure where that 13.3 million dollars went but it sure wasn’t the course. I grew up going to sportsman and to see that money wasted on a parking lot and clubhouse is despicable.

The greens are awful, dirt areas everywhere. The teeboxes are ball above or below your feet and torn up. I will never go back.”

Nice course in busy suburb

This course has potential. Unfortunately it was recently renovated and reopened. So I had some unlucky results. Reasonable course for bogey golfers.

Nice course to walk

Course is in good shape, challenging greens,, plays longer than it is. Great course to walk and a great course for the price. The clubhouse and amenities are all top notch, and the staff is wonderful.

Pretty but…

Really pretty course and prettier clubhouse and facilities. Matts for range is uninspiring but plenty of room and good places to chip and putt. Adirondack chairs facing the 18th green is a nice way to hang on the 19th. However, tee boxes were generally in horrible shape, fairways had lots of standing water and greens weren’t taken care of by players or supervisors.
