This course is what you pay for

While I do not find the course bad, there could be a lot more effort into cleaning and maintaining the course itself. Trees down, fairways almost completely submerged most of the year, cart path needs a lot of attention. That being said it’s a suitable course for the price.

Qualified bargain

Sixteen of the eighteen holes were excellent, the other two were soggy & muddy. The area had gotten a lot of rain and the management warned us about the two holes in question, along with the traps that were also hit hard by the rain. That said, for the $30 Hot Deal that we used it was an incredible bargain. The rest of the course was immaculate... perfect greens, closely mown fairways, well manicured tee boxes, etc. The staff is super friendly and you can drive the cart out to your car in the lot. We will definitey be going back, and I'm sure once it stops raining around here those two holes will improve.

An interesting layout

This course was very well designed. The holes are challenging with good placement of bunkers and water hazards. The course is loaded with birds and other wildlife. However, it continues to suffer from neglect. Some of the pot bunkers don't even have sand in them. There was also an abundance of casual water from the recent rains. In it's hayday this must have been an awesome course. Now, I consider it a great value and a fun course to work on my game.

Cart issues all the time

I reserved tee time thru Golfnow, and the Cart was included. But when I went to the course, they said it’s walking only. They always have issues with cart.

Maybe time to say goodbye to Midlane

The course has seen it’s better days, and its been up for sale for at least a couple years now. It would still be a great course if it were taken care of but sadly that’s not the case. Trees on 7 might tip over at anytime due to beavers eating them up. All the bunkers have rocks in them (not pebbles, ROCKS), no one fixing their divots or pitch marks, even saw a few divots on the greens 3 ft from the hole. Yes divots. Pace of play was bad last time I went, with the group in front of us quitting saying there’s no way they could play at that pace. Finally paper printed scorecards. We get it, gotta try and reduce overhead costs somewhere but charging over $50 with everything previously listed is a tough sell. No worries, they got my money last weekend but never again.

Great possibilities

Beautiful fairways on most holes. Had a little problem with flooding on the 6 th hole. Played around it. Nice challenges for any level with sand and water. This place could be excellent with some TLC.
