Dangerous course. Had several balls hit near me because tees and greens are too close.

Overall Experience

The online scheduling of tee times is fast and easy. The check in was smooth and quick. The putting green was in great shape and a good representation of actual playing conditions. Pace of play was timely but we were not rushed. It is an easy course to walk. We enjoy playing there whenever we want to get in a quick nine holes.

I think drainage on this course is poor and should not have been open the day we played. I spend more time avoiding mud and standing water than enjoying the game. There aslo was no on monitoring when groups tees off so pace of play was awful and we waited for multiple groups on each hole.

First time

Wonderful executive course, great place for beginners as well. We played on 11/10, greens were in great condition, tee boxes and bunkers not so much - again very late in season so to be expected. Would recommend for a quick round and beginners.

vexing

This is an "executive" length course, but it still manages to pose a challenge, even without much length. After playing it the first time, we decided we needed to come back and do better. We did, but not a lot better.

What about a rain check

Everything was fine until it started to rain and we had to leave. But since we paid with golf pass, no rain check was afforded us.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience you experienced at the course. It sounds like you prepaid for a Hot Deal on GolfNow. When this is the case, no money is paid to the pro-shop so there is no money that is owed back from the course. If you call GolfNow, they would be happy to rectify the situation for you. We hope this clears any confusion up and we hope you give us another try in the future.
