Bad management, bad pace of play

Idk if it was the starters first day or what but it took 3 hours 35 mins to finish 9 holes. Clubhouse was rude and when we arrived, the guy told us "you have to wait until the guy who knows how to check you out comes back".....

Good course, but your local corner store manager could run this place much better.

Aerifcation

We were not aware when we purchased our rounds that the entire course was being aerated. We had to skip holes and could not even putt due to workbeing done while we were there.

This is a great layout

Great 9 hole course with 2 very challenging par 5’s, challenging par 4’s and a tough finishing par 3. Course was in very good condition given the amount of play it gets.
