Nice course

Walk or ride the 18. A little bit of everything and options to hit off Matt’s or tips.

Windy weather
Walked

no refunds

Course was flooded so we were unable to play the full 18, just 12 holes. Purchased carts as well, but the worker at the popshop refused to provide a refund for the cart fees and the 6 holes we didn't play due to flooding.

Raw Course - Mats for Tee boxes

I had friends tell me to not play here. I neglected their advice and played here with 4 friends. I wish I knew their clubhouse didn’t have real food and no offerings on the turn. Once you go out you better have all your stuff with you as you won’t come back till the end.

Now the worst part. You tee off from mats. Who wants to pay to tee off Mats.

Decent course in a great area

Not a bad course at all. The layout is a bit frustrating, with fairways appearing to cris cross each other, but overall it’s a good value for 18 holes

It'll work in a pinch.

The course is pretty much a mess and there are no legitimate tees to hit off of. Then the starter made a comment that he was going to be nice enough to let me drive a cart even though I was only one person. Very little attempt to improve the course conditions over the last couple years. I played cuz I could get in there last minute.

Meh. It's okay.

It's Edgebrook.At least they ARE making improvements. It's pretty easy, you can score if you just play it straight, even if you use only irons.

Greens in great shape, tee box in terrible conditions

Short course where you can tee off the driving mat or grass tees which makes the course even shorter but was in awaful conditions. Thankfully the greens were in great shape and pace was play was good since I was one of the first few who groups on the course. Good value for the money if walking
