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.

Things in general were not up to the snuff. The restrooms were not clean, the golf carts were very filthy and needed to be CLEANED THOROUGHLY. things in general were not as good as I have seen there before even during COVID times. Perhaps it’s the beginning of the season and that’s why. Hopefully it improves otherwise people won’t pay the kind of money they want from us this year!!!
It’s gone up way up.

The golf carts were in a horrible condition as if they had been in through a mud pile or whatever They needed a good thorough wash or scrub down because I didn’t even feel like touching them. Had to clean it off myself the best I could just to use it for the 9 holes that I played that day. Effort is needed to maintain it which I didn’t see it there.
The course also appears to be going downhill.

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.!

The course is in the best condition I have played on this course. From golf cart paths to fairways and greens the course is well maintained. It was a pleasure playing this course thanks to all the hard work done to improve every part of the game.

Green keeper's help was dragging the fairways which made it difficult to ply

Too many fairways were being worked on by the ground crew which slowed down the play
