slow play

Lovely course. Ended up following a woman.s league. Pace of play was slow but the women were trying to move along. Paired up with three others and enjoyed the round.

Nice course

Nice course and a great deal for the money. Always well kept. The starter there is the absolute worst and always has some type of rude comment that almost ruins our time there. Literally every time I go he has an attitude about something. I live a half mile from the course and have only played there 4 or 5 times for this reason. But once you get past him it’s a fun course to play. And like I said for the price it’s a cheap enjoyable 9. Just please for the love of God get a starter that enjoys being there.

My only beef is that I paid to ride but due to rain, the course did not allow riding cart and was not compensated for the difference because I bought through teetime.

Unorganized

Was pulled off the course because of the rain after two holes. No refund allowed. We were allowed to “wait” but if it wasn’t clear in 45 min we can’t golf due to a scramble outing that was starting at that time. Would not recommend due to not accommodating paying customers, paid full price for two holes.

A nice surprise...

A really nice surprise of the course condition and layout for a 9 hole course. I didn't expect this nice of a course, fairways were cut well, good roughs, and some of the best greens I have seen in the area. Option of walking or cart but pace of play keeps up.
