This is a Fantastic Course!

I really enjoyed my entire experience here. The fairways, greens, and tee boxes were all in good shape. You can tell they work hard to keep this place in great shape. I really enjoyed the detail that has gone into each of their holes and how many of them are designed in the likeness of St. Andrew's course in Scotland. The golf carts are all equipped with a gps system which was helpful for us to choose our clubs and plan our shots. Occasionally, the gps system would have notifications that would pop up which got annoying after a while. All in all, we had a great time, I would highly recommend this golf course, and will be back to play soon.

Great Shape in November

I had the pleasure to play MPGC during an unseasonal warm stretch in early November. Course was in superb shape, especially the greens. The grounds crew also has done a great job cleaning up the leaves . Let's hope we catch another good wave of weather so the course can stay open.

Great course

Played in 3 1/2 hours. Waiting a little for the golfers in front of us but had no one behind us. Course was in great shape. Only issue was that the halfway house had an open sign but no one was there. The day warmed up and it was a perfect day to play.

Real nice course

This course is really nice but the greens are fast and bendy. I 3-putted the first six holes, and Im not that bad of a putter.
