Pace of play matters
Course has always been average at best. It's a short course that's great for beginners but the pace of play is brutal. Waiting 20-30 minutes to tee off at each hole makes for a long day and makes golfing no longer enjoyable. They need a ranger and allow more time between groups otherwise pack a lunch and dinner.
Nice local course
Nice value for a last minute round. Play there as a single and seem to meet nice people.
Poor conditions
The course was aerated which I didn't know before I booked the round. The rough the tee boxes are in rough shape, the rough needs to be cut down some, and the greens need all the help they can get.

This course is great to learn on! This staff is kind and there are awesome amenities, for a municipal course.
However, if you’re looking for something well kept and interesting probably not the place for you.
It’s just okaaay.
Sturdy Stalwart
Greens were punched when I played. No other complaints, this isn’t some well manicured resort course this is your standard issue public course with a lot of getable holes but tough enough to challenge your game. I really like the layout. One of my favorites.
Chick does the trick!
For early season practice Chick Evans is an excellent value. For me the convenience and cost made the round enjoyable and practical. I will go back for a repeat experience.
Great staff
The starter John was great. We talked a little before my round and at the end he remembered my name. Great guy. Give him a raise
Frost Delay?
Played a round of course and had a 10am tee time. Showed up and still had a frost delay. All tee times including 7am tee times were delayed. No email from course to at least give heads up of the delay. Tee times every 10 minutes so turned into a 5 1/2 hour 18 holes.
Cancelled
They cancelled my tee time as I was driving to to course.
They said it had been refunded but it wasn’t, so I not only drove most of the way there but paid to play as well.
Course operator here - Thanks for booking a round at Chick Evans - sorry it didn't work out and that we couldn't have given you more notice with such extensive rain. We called and emailed everyone directly Saturday and Sunday, doing the best we could to contact our golfers. Refunds for rounds booked through GolfNow or other third party take a few days, but please contact us directly if you need further help. Thanks again, hope to see you soon!

Solid option with some opportunity to improve
For a winter round the course was in pretty good shape. While short, the course offers a fun challenge to a range of golfers with its shaped holes. Nice scenery throughout. Number 3 is wild. I do wish they would do something about the goose droppings small over the greens, seems like we were clearing turds for any putt over 10 feet.
better than nothing
Lovely day for a walk.
Cold but better than not playing. Course was in pretty good shape all thing considered.
Bad place!
Goose 💩 around the green everywhere and never clean the courses after beginning of November!
Course operator here. Thank you for your valuable feedback. The course went through aerification mid-April, but due to late season frost, and this delayed the healing process on some of the greens. We've rolled and mown the greens since, and they are rolling true. Cosmetically you can still see the filled aerification holes, indeed. We appreciate your patience as the recent warmer weather will stimulate growth and improvement as we progress through the season. We hope to see you enjoy our course again.
