Great value for the money

Played on a beautiful busy Friday afternoon for a great price. Course was in great shape. The only negative was the pace of play. There was a foursome of teenage boys in front of us taking 3-4 shots each off of the tee box and taking way too much time looking for their balls and taking their next shots.

Fair but reasonable

The course was in ok shape. Fair at best. Not many yardage markers on course beside a few faded ones painted on cart path. Some areas overgrown. Greens were in good shape but some tee boxes not so much. Pace of play was slow but my twosome was able to jump 2 foursomes at halfway point. Price was reasonable for this course. Course difficulty was fair. Overall fair course . Might play again if the area.

Slow and grumpy

Great course “tucked away” in Crete. I live the rolling hills throughout the course. We were backed up 3 groups at each hole… Don’t try to make a casual conversation w/ the pro shop guy or starter, we got not laughs or words all day. If I’m paying over $30 for this place I’m looking elsewhere.

Decent, Could be Better

The bad: Lack of carts (we had to wait), no rangers, very slow play, too many groups of 2 that should have been paired up. Front nine took almost 3 hours to finish, which caused us to play it again to avoid playing behind slow pokes. Several sand traps had weeds growing in them.

The good: Enjoyable layout, great greens and fairways, rough was a little long but not too bad, cute cart girl, good brat at the turn.

6 hour Saturday round

No ranger on the course on a busy Saturday. Driving range no longer available. No actual food beyond burgers, brats & dogs. Clubhouse needs a serious remodel. As far as the course itself, it's in surprisingly good condition. The rough doesn't LOOK imposing, but it's a bear! Very "grabby". Greens are smallish and challenging. STAY BELOW THE HOLE! I WOULD play again, but never on the weekend.

Rough was long, especially around the greens. Spent too much time looking for balls in the rough or around the greens.
