Good course but staff is clueless

We booked a tee time day in advance for 2 players. Called the shop and said that we are better golfers and asked if we are getting paired with someone for our tee time, then to pair us with younger or better players. We showed to the first tee 3 minutes before our tee time and starter said that he already sent 2 players 5 minutes ago and we need to catch up to that group and pair with them. We could see from the tee that it’s 2 older ladies. We politely asked if we could be paired with someone that would not slow us down and he refused. Said that they are good players. Well, those two players ended up being 2 older Asian ladies in their mid to late 60s that hit 3-4 shots before they could even get on a green on par 3. The pace of play sucked. Pro shop and starter needs to do a better job pairing players for sure. Otherwise, course was in decent shape. Greens were fast for a public course. I would give this place another shot, but hope to have a more pleasant experience next time.

Great condition and secluded

Amazing how removed from urban world this is for couple minutes off the highway. Course was in great shape and played fairly easy but good challenge.

Could be the worst driving range mats ever but that was only downside.

Decent Course for the $

This course has a nice layout, but it needs to be taken care of better. No water out on a very hot day. A lot of golfers on the course, and no rangers could be found anywhere. Water was still in the traps 2 days after storms, making them unplayable. This is a nice course with a great layout, but needs to be better taken care of.
