Great value 9-hole by the city
Short 9-hole course that is great to shoot low but still provides enough length to play through your whole bag unlike a par-3. The cheapest option anywhere near the city, especially if you look for the hot deals, I played here for $2.17 after I used my monthly promo code from Golfnow+.

Very solid short 9-hole course
Great value course for North side golf, par 33 over 9 holes is great practice for irons/wedges with 4 par-3's. Greens roll a little slow but have enough slopes to keep it enjoyable.

Great day out
The design of this course really ensures you don't bump into other golfers. The yellow tees are great for those who are still developing with a Driver.

Blown away
35 some years ago I shot 9 here nearly every day after work for $2.50a round, it was a cow pasture!
This place is great, carpet like greens, trees need trimming to help lower scores & smoother fun round.
