Horrible Pace Ranger No Help

Just played 5 holes in 95mins. Didn’t tell me there was an outing. Skip 4holes to get to 9 then they’re sending people off on the other 9 directly in front of me. Ranger response I didn’t send anyone over there. Well if I was the ranger I would probably go and clear the people off that just jumped someone going to 10. First time playing, nicely maintained but that pace with that response means it will be my last round there.

Creek side is in rough shape

I have been playing this course for years and I understand that maintaining the course needs to happen but open holes by the tee boxes without safety warnings is not a good look. Also on the I think 6th or 7th hole which is a massive dog leg right, cart path only is terrible based on the fairway size.

Hidden Gem! Shhhh… don’t tell anyone !

What a place! I learned that the man that owns this place actually owns the turf farm that’s right next to it. There are 39 hole course is two more designated for 18 hole golf players I played the Creekside course which was designated for nine holes on the day that I played golf with one other person, and it seem like we had the whole course to ourselves; it was a teatime of 2:24 PM on a Thursday. I’m so impressed by the attention to detail and care for the fairways in the greens and the tea boxes the course plays like a course that could be double or triple the price that you pay. Anyway, I highly recommend this course.!

Have played this course many times and have enjoyed my round each and every time. Could not ask for better staff members or course conditions. Course always in great shape. I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking for a great course at a fair price. I drive over an hour to play this course about once a week.
