Too busy

Tee times were too close and it turned out to be a 5 hour round because of the people ahead of us. Wouldn’t recommend but if you’re on a budget it’s overall a okay course.

Slow round, great shape

We've had a lot of water recently, but I applaud the course for keeping it in great shape. It was slow today because a lot of people had the same idea, but that's OK. Wicker is doing a lot of things right.

Pretty good round. Treated well!

It was a GolfNow reservation. Went very well. Played with another two-some. Hot, but plenty of shade. Had a great time.

Harassment

Persons of color are not welcome. The staff was rude upon checking in and basically said nothing to me and handed me keys to a cart. I checked in with the starter who gave me no instructions. Another single player rode up and the starter told him he could go out with me. At hole number 5 a staff member named Mark who was cutting the fairway told us we had to go turn in the carts that the pro shop gave us and ride in one cart. I have never been given instructions by a staff member maintaining the course so I disregarded his instructions. He then proceeded to call the office. A Marshall came out and told us there would be a decision about each of us taking out a cart that the pro shop gave us. This was at hole 12, we finished our round to find several carts parked ready to be used and never heard anything else. I have never been treated like I didn’t belong on any course I have played until today. I will never play another round at this course and I suggest no one else does … unless you are a bigot.

Okay course.

Fun to play. Decent fairways and good greens. The old dude behind the desk was rude. Other then that, not bad.

Hidden gem across the state line

Ran into this course by accident and honestly didn’t know what to expect. Arrived and realized the course was beautiful the staff was very friendly. The course provided enough difficulties but flowed well.
