overall the course was average. would have a much better rating if not for the sand traps,( rocks & stones) and the tee off area was uneven and poorly maintained. these need proper attention.

Disappointing experience

They try to fit as many players as they can before a league tees off and then it bogs everything down

Pleasantly surprised

It’s been decades since I last played here and am happy to get reacquainted. Course is in really nice shape and the greens are smooth and true. Way more water hazards than I remember but they may have been added since my last visit in the 90’s. Good halfway house directly across from 10th tee makes it a quick stop for something grilled right there at the turn. Will definitely play again and bring extra balls next time.

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.
