Pleasant Surprise

Great course and a pleasant surprise. It was a busy Sunday morning so a little slow on the front 9 but overall great day and was much faster on the back 9. I would recommend this to friends playing and we definitely would come back.

Stay away

Just look at the rental clubs. Had I not just paid $45 to Uber there, I would not have played and I wish I wouldn’t have. It was useless with those clubs. It would have been nice when I called to confirm clubs were available, if they would have been upfront about the condition. You know something like,”The clubs aren’t bad for a random collection from the lost in found in 1987.” Also, I saw people playing barefoot, could hear music blaring from various fairways, got hit into multiple times from players on different holes. I could go on, but you get it. Stay away.

How soon can they close this?

This course used to be a private club. It should have just been closed when it failed instead of trying to make it public. Clearly no $ go into course maintenance. Doesn’t drain well. Weird hole layouts. $70/round for this is a joke. Etc Etc.

Payed for 18 holes. But when we got there we were told there was a league playing and we would have to play the back 9 twice instead of 1 through 18 like it should be.

Super fun!

First time playing this course. Greens were REALLY SLOW with all the rain this week. But if you do better than my party locking into those, you’ll have a great time. Course is in good shape, with lots of interesting hole designs. No sand is a plus in my book! Would play again soon if I find another sup-$40 deal, but it’s certainly worth $50 for a fun morning.

Decent Course but needs to have Rangers

Course was in decent shape with the exception of the rough, it was very high and looked like it hadn't been cut in weeks. The greens and tee boxes were in decent shape. The biggest issue was that there wasn't anyone monitoring the pace of play and the foursome in front of us was dreadfully slow and backing up the entire course.

Nice local course

Ownership is clearly upgrading this course. Greens were pretty slow. Difficult to find some balls that were just off the fairways.
