Great time

Challenging course for the money (in a good way). Super fast greens, great pace of play, tough pin placements. Also, the course is in great shape.

Awesome experience, can’t wait to be back.

Always a good time out on the course here. Greens were a little slower but it's that time of year. We will definitely be back again

First Time Playing

Incredible course and a great value for early season play

First time here and I thought this place was great. Everything was in very good condition including large flat even tea boxes, solid Fairways with a couple uneven or patchy areas but nothing to complain about at all.

The Fringe and greens were near perfect rolling incredibly smooth and fast. Every single green was unique with Incredible topography.

Very fun and challenging layout, no driving range but they have an insane huge putting green with a ton of elevation.

For 50$ early season this is arguably the most value I've ever found in a course. Will 100% be back. Can only imagine how nice this place is mid-season.

I was disappointed to see the greens were aerated without being notified before playing our round. We were very happy with the rest of the course :)

Greens could be better

The course is in OK shape for the most part, except all of the greens are still sandy and aerated. So, it's almost impossible to stop an approach shot, and putting is pretty fast and inconsistent. For as mild a winter and spring we've had I'd expect the greens to be further along towards summer shape.

Great value for your $

This course is always in great shape! Bent grass fairways and completely manicured. You will feel like you’re at a private course. Great challenging layout that’s very fair. Tough undulating greens! The greens were ok yesterday as they recover from early season aeration but buy mid May will be in country club condition. Enjoy!😎

Loved playing here

I decided to try this course for the first time and was very glad I did. Breat course layout and great condition. Staff was friendly and even gave me tips for my next round. Value for the money and prefer this course to another top rated course in lake county that costs even more. Great pace of play considering there was a ton of people out today.
