Great Course in the City

You have to be able to play with allot of noise. If you want silents when you put or tee off, you need to go to the burbs. The course's are surrounded by street traffic as well as local residents using the parks near by. The greens where in great shape and the staff was friendly and funny. We will be back. The cart fee was a little high at 18.00 per person. Even still we had a great day.

Convenient location but you pay for it

The course is conveniently located close to the city but it's $46 to ride for a course that should be max $35. It's short and not in great condition and there is no ranger, cart girl, or halfway house. If you want a drink or food you have to drive across a busy road to a gas station. Be sure one of you stays in the car or your cart or clubs will be taken.

Dump

Avoid. This place is a dump. I can't believe they call this place a golf course.
