Challenging and tight course

Challenge #1: keep it straight and precise.

Challenge #2: don't miss the greens.

Challenge #3: good luck avoiding the 3 and 4 putts

I've played there twice and I love it!!!

One of the best!

This is one of the best public courses I’ve golfed at in a long time. So great! It’s my “home course” and love everything about it. The only thing I see need for improvement is consistency with the bunkers. Not all the holes have enough sand in the bunkers so it can make it a challenge trying to determine what type of shot to take. It’s a great place to hang after your round too. Both the course employees and bar area staff (to include bev cart) are awesome people and friendly. Can’t wait to golf there again (which will be very soon)!

You should walk.

I played this course in the rain on 9/11. I took a cart. Bad idea. As they are electric (nice) the screen changes to some bs like fill your divot, or keep pace with the group in front of you. EVERY DUCKING HOLE AND EVERY SHOT. It was extremely annoying. I was about to smash the screen. The flag sticks don’t have reflectors so it was hard to pick up and then you go to look at the screen to see how far you are and it’s not on the hole it’s showing here’s how to fix a pitch mark. I don’t need that just show the hole and distance. So just walk to avoid that. Also the bunkers are 75% sand and 25% pebbles they need to redo them. Greens were fast even in the rain which was nice.

Pin placement was good! Definitely made it challenging. Course in pretty good condition but not great, divot repair is beyond needed.

Nice Track

This is a really nice course with great practice facilities and clubhouse. Staff is friendly. Only complaint I have is the greens are very difficult. Unkept well just tons of breaks with many of them subtle and even triple breaking on a 15 footer.
