Not worth the time

They allowed a group of 6 to play ahead of us and really slowed everyone down behind. And there was no course ranger to speed things up. Course is small but you should know that before you book - no par 5s. It’s not well laid out or marked.

Signage

Put up signs directing people from hole #1 to hole #2 and so on. I was frustrated and will not go back to that course

No starter the day I played (a Saturday) and there was confusion over which course (blue or white) that groups were playing.

Also, there was a group of 12 people that were all playing together, drastically affecting pace of play.

I suppose you can’t ask much for $30, but even at that price, there are some basics one would expect.

Probably so t be playing this course again.

Great for beginners. Terrible for serious golfers.

Played on Labor Day. For the good, price and staff were on point and what you should expect for this course. For the bad, way too many beginner hacks which means they have no clue what they are doing. Layout is terrible with no signage to the next hole and the tee box/greens are too close together. With beginner players spraying the ball over the place, not surprised someone didn’t get dinged on the head from an errant tee shot.

A great place to play 9 holes

The convenience of the location and amenities for a 9 hole course were more than I expected. The person behind the desk was polite and efficient. The starter got a card and pencil while I waiting for my husband. The course was interesting and manicured. There was really nothing lacking and the price for two and a cart was more than fair. Can’t wait to return.
