Hidden Gem in the Burbs

Went from being a decent golfer to a low single digit playing this course almost 5 times a week for 5 or 6 years. To say I know it is an understatement. Now I am a PGA professional and I can tell you that having an accessible 9 hole course I could count on walking on daily was a great help in my development. Played with a mini tour player once from the Gold Tees when the equipment was not as long, he said it was a new favorite for his stays nearby. I do not remember anyone shooting much below par.... ever...., though today's equipment might make that more realistic.

A walking work out!

I played late on a Saturday...as i was looking for a good nine hole to practice and walk. This is a BIG nine hole course. And provided a tremendous walk. Conditions were good on the fairways and green. Grass a bit long. Many long straight runs. Would play again.

Golf

First time at this course. Pace of play started out great. On the last few holes it got jammed up pretty bad. Especially on the 9th hole. All in all I would play there again because the location is close to my home. I wouldn't drive out of my way to play here. Prefer 18 holes but not a bad 9 hole course.

Tough 9 hole test

Never played here before but heard some descent reviews from other guys I have played with before. Went on a nice Monday afternoon since Golf Now showed they had a bunch of open tee times.

Pros: When most people here about a 9 hole course, they assume it will be an easy, short, straightforward course. Not so with this one. This one is a tough shot making test that will challenge you off the tee as well as with your shots into the greens. This most certainly is not a course for beginners. Water hazards come into play on nearly every hole. It makes for some scenic holes but can also cause your score to balloon very quickly. The greens have subtle breaks in them that are not apparent at first glance. It was an easy walk with short distances from greens to tees. It was also very easy to figure out where the next hole was even for a first time player.

Cons: Pace of play sucked...bad. For it looking like tee times were available all afternoon, the course backed up very quickly. I was a single walker and I ended up pairing up with the walker in front of me. The back log became so bad that the two singles behind us caught up and we made our own foursome. The twosome in front of us became so frustrated with pace of play that they just left after the 5th hole. There were no course employees anywhere to be seen. Two of the members I played with said this had been common so far this year. My round was 2.5 hours for 9 holes. Another player told me that on the weekend, it had taken him over 3 hours to play 9. I understand that the course is tough and there are hazards aplenty but that's just bad. My only other problem with this course is that the scorecard shows yardages for multiple sets of tees. There were only tee markers for 2 sets, white and red. With it being my first time playing, I didn't know if this is an anomaly or a regular occurrence. No warmup area and the first hole is no joke. Hopefully your playing partners are good with breakfast balls.

Verdict: Worth giving a chance even if the pace of play may be brutal. The members I played with were very welcoming and helpful so don't be scared to try and pair up with some other players here. The employee in the pro shop was also very helpful giving me some tips on how to navigate certain holes on the course. Once I get my irons dialed in, I'll be back to give it another go and see if I can break 40 here.

Never played

Course allowed to many walk ups. Really didn't have planned tee times. They were running a half hour late. I looked and there was supposed to be many tee times still available. ?????

Tight sandy course

The course is fun long par 4 and 5. Fun mid par 3. But all the greens have sand ... A lot of sand. The course it's self is tight and narrow. So bring your A Agne and drive straight as possible or you will hit a house, loose balls , and or hit another player on the course. Cheap rates good if you need a last minute course to play. Also no driving range or practice putting greens at this course

Needs Better Mangement

This is a really tough nine hole course that deserves better manangement.Extremely slow play(2and a half plus for nine holes)One bathroom/water fountain on the course.No starter or ranger so lots of singles,twosomes etc. Pairing groups might help speed up play.Small putting green.No chipping allowed.Course is poorly marked.Need a gps.
Course is no pushover.Water,trees,and O.B. on many of the holes.Nmbr.4 and 9 will test your game.Play the tips at your own risk.
