Rude staff members

There was an outing. So they sent all golfers to the blue tees. 8 foursomes waiting. 4 hours for 9 holes. Poorly planned day

Great Place & Great People

The course here is awesome! Very well kept overall. The layout is great, and 3 different 9s so the pace is always good. My friends and I have made this our go-to course.

Beautiful Day

The course was not overcrowded and we were able to play our round in under four hours. The course conditions were very good although some of the par three greens had more quantity than normal of unrepaired ball marks which made it appear less appealing.

Nice course

The course was in great shape for how dry it’s been. The staff is always super friendly. I really like that they have hot dogs for sale most any time of day.

The red course was very backed up and we asked if we could start on a different color but was told no. Maybe there was a good explanation but at that moment there wasn’t anyone staying on the white course. Still a great place to spend the day golfing.

Great day

The front 9 was packed and slow (fathers day weekend) but that was to be expected.

The front 9 was frustrating....hurry up and wait, hurry up and wait. Fathers day weekend!!!

The back nine opened up with just short delays on the tee box. The course was still well maintained and fun to play.

Worth coming back.

Very wet after all the recent rain

Was only able to walk the course because no carts were allowed after 4 inches of rain a few days before, which is perfectly understandable. Grass was long, most bunkers had water in them, but the greens were in great condition. Play here 4 or 5 times a year because I have friends in the area, so look forward to playing when the course drys out some.

Early Season

Sort of what I expected, so very wet spots, for course was still playable. The greens rolled well considering how early in the season it was.

Need friendlier staff

The old men that work there need to retire and do something they would actually enjoy. Other than that if you have a choice stay away from the Red course. Conditions were not the best and the layout is suspect. Grey course is no doubt the nicest of the three.
