Back to childhood home for a weekend

Course was in great shape, greens were super fast. Pace of play slowed to a crawl at 10. Otherwise a great course, in awesome shape.

Nice course but a bit overpriced

The course itself is pretty solid and the fairways and greens were in really good condition, but it's a bit overpriced & their policy of requiring that every person pay for a cart fee, even if you want to walk, is absurd (I even called the pro shop and the attendant confirmed that this is their new policy).

Course was very wet. Wind gust up to 20 mph. Cart path only

Good course conditions for how wet the course was.. Fairways and rough were cut, good green speeds

Bunkers were raked

Grounds crew is doing a good job.

Deerfield like money.

I made a reservation through Golf Now and it was cart included but they asked for an additional money for using golf cart because I was alone.

They like money.

Extra charge for cart if you are a single rider

I feel like I was scammed I paid 38 for 18 plus cart as a GolfNow hot deal. And when I got to the course they said I owe 6 more for being a single. The workers couldn’t care less when I asked the single I played with and he was charged so be carefull

It wouldn’t hurt to be friendly

Staff not friendly. No smiles, no cart person for on course beverages, no ranger to move play along. Course is nice and fairly well kept.
