Love playing this course, good opportunities to score early. I would say there’s two things to be aware of when playing here 1) there’s an absurd amount of geese 2) because of how close the tee times are it has a high probability of golfers ahead of you not maintaining the pace of play. I’ve had to skip at least 2 holes each round and just let the shop know and they always have been kind of enough to let me just circle back to finish the round

Terrible course

Geese poop and geese are everywhere. Tees are broken, nothing is up-kept, no starter, terrible greens. Overall deserves negative stars.

It’s now what it use to be

Haven’t played this in years. I had fond memories of the course. It is narrow, water in the right places , long but not too long. The course was in terrible shape. Goose dung everywhere, greens with holes and divots, shaggy fairways, and tee boxes that are full of divots.

Can’t really believe how bad it became. Quit after 14 in disgust.

3.5 Stars - it was too slow 5 hour round, but the course is not bad! They wont allow me submit this without the recommendation box checked, so I had to say Yes or No, I’d rather say maybe.

Do not go during a popular time

Round took 5.5 hours! Course conditions were decent. Tee boxes were a little choppy but no other big issues. I’d only play again on a morning weekday.

Very surprised at how little people there was out there when I went with my group. It’s a great fun course with some water holes. Very well maintained.

Not my favorite course

Fairways are very narrow and the rough very penal with its length and difficulty finding your ball, even if just off the fairway. Very frustrating. For average golfer, hole 9 is almost unplayable. I decided to play it a second time and it didn't change my mind. I live right next door, but don't plan to play it again. Not a fun round.

Course was in a good shape, but I played on Memorial Day. I expected a long round and wasn't disappointed - 5 hours!

Not worth the cost

I am not sure how this can have country club in its name. We paid 87$ for 18 with a cart Monday at 6:40 am. No cart girl or people working inside to get food or drinks. The course was average, some challenging holes and the pace of play was slow. Was frustrating that they don’t have different rates if you wanted to walk. Overall I wouldn’t play here again, way more courses for cheaper that are nicer.

Good course

Roughs badly needed cutting, lost five balls both neon and white in color, Balls should have been easily found if roughs better maintained

Hole markers should be better defined, difficult to find tees for holes because directional signs not to prevalent
