Nice course

Fairways were in great shape.

Greens rolled semi slow but true.

Layout is fair, some challenges.

Cashier was a MOPE!

But overall a nice round.

Too expensive compared to other courses in area

We were looking for a place to play on Labor Day and most morning tee times were still available less than a week out. It became apparent that this was due to value for the money.

It is just too expensive when nicer, better kept courses in the area are $20 to $30 a round cheaper.

It’s Okay

This is an average course for a reasonable price. However, tee boxes were in bad shape, full of divots and uneven. Golfers and green keeper need to be more considerate to repair ball marks on greens as there were unrepaired ball marks on every green.

The golf cart did not have any seed mix to repair fairway divots. Sand traps are hard making it difficult to hit from traps. The course has potential but needs improved maintenance… a bit disappointing.

Ok course. A little pricey for what you get.

Course is in good shape. There are some challenging holes but pace of play was slow as we started later than our morning tee time. There are no signs but the driving range is irons only.

Waste of time & money

The course is jammed into a small area with holes right on top of each other. Also apartment buildings are 10 yards off the fairways. Fairways not cut, tee boxes are a mess. $87,00 is a ridiculous price, it’s a $50.00 course at best. Way too many other courses to play for that money.

Pace of play was horrible

We teed off at 10:33 on a Wednesday and by the 6th hole, there was a full two holes open in front of the group in front of us. We hoped to pass them at the 10th, but they didn’t stop at the halfway house and caught up to the group in front of us. By the 11th hole, we were already a full hole behind and it kept getting worse and worse. We asked the bev cart girl about a ranger and she said the only way they act on a slow group is for us to call the pro shop and then they will send someone out to check. We didn’t do that and gave up on the 16th hole to skip the group at play the 18th that was wide open. I stopped in the pro shop after and told the person behind the desk that the pace was horrible and asked about a ranger… and she said, yeah, we don’t have one every day. And, then, she stared at me. I said that an apology would have been nice, but she continued to stare at me. With so many courses around and with the condition of the tee boxes, I’ll never be back and you shouldn’t go, either. A terrible experience and pace on a Wednesday! Unreal!

Love :Course, but Lost Club-Not Returned

I thought this course was great, but I was in the first group and left my GW on the 18th green. It was never returned. I understand this is my fault. 100%, however, a single woman played behind us who was hitting three balls. I don’t really care about that, but I am curious if she found my club, or anyone else afterwards, and did not return it. This is not the Old Orchards fault, but this happened here, so I’m complaining here: Come one y’all, this is public course etiquette. Just be cool and return the club.

plays long

fairways are cut a little long. No tight lies. Hence not much roll. Greens are a average as far as speed. Could be faster.
