Nice Public Course

Great course if you’re looking to get out for 9. Typically have tee times available and the course has been in good shape. Pretty easy course with no bunkers. Great for beginner golfers or anyone looking for a quick round.

Great Pace of Play for a Saturday

Lucked out as to pace as a bunch of foursomes cancelled around my tee time. Staff is always awesome here. Note: The SAND OR PAPER WASPS are starting to nest on the fairway on #8. These guys don’t sting you but they are huge, buzz you like a B-52 Bomber and make play difficult especially when your ball settles by a nest. Hopefully they get the exterminator out and mitigate this!!!

Best shape in years

All the rain has really benefited this course. We played 9 holes on a Friday afternoon in 2 hours and the greens look great. Nice job staff
