1st time out of season
No carts. Very limited amount of pull carts to rent out before our 10:30 tee time. So us 60 year olds had to carry our bags. Only worker was leaving at 2 pm. So even at the turn when they had some returned pull carts, she couldn't rent them as we wouldn't be done by 2 pm. All in all a nice day but frustrating they could do better with carts.

Back nine was closed, but I was not notified doing booking or in person
There was no notification that the back nine holds were closed. Playing nine holes twice is not the same.

When it's dry stay away
This course needs watering system really bad. The only part of the course that's got decent grass are the greens and they were recently aerated. The price was right and the staff very nice, but I will think twice before golfing here again. To bad because it's a great layout and challenge.

End of season
I regret seeing this course for the first time at end of season. Not well maintained or staffed. Overall 3/5 stars. Ok for $30 or less

Terrible
Played here many times before, but not in last 3 years. Course is in terrible conditions. Greens were ok, but bunkers, tee boxes and fairways are terrible. No Ranger on the course or starter. Foursomes break up into twosomes mid round and pace is shut. Rather then enjoy playing, it was waiting on school hole for 10-15 mins.
