Horrendous Course

Terrible service. Owner is a stuck up bum who doesn’t know the first thing about customer service. Staff will treat you like garbage and the course is comparable to your local dump. Don’t waste your time or money at this waste of space. An absolute embarrassment of an establishment.

Good value, cou

Course itself was in great condition with smooth, fast greens. Had a coupon and played on a Thursday AM for $32. Only complaint was no water on the course and no beverage cart either...not acceptable in the hot summer sun. No real practice facilities some so come warmed up. Pace of play was great....would play here again as it is a good value.
