Only if you can catch this course on a less crowded day

Pace of play is awful here they don’t spread out tee times well at all. Would be an awesome experience if they could get that under control

Tough course but fun play

Not the easiest course but nothing crazy. It’s a good looking course and a fun play through. Enjoyed it

Grandson Won Again

We had an 8:40 tee time and the weather was perfect. Had fun on first hole with a stray dog not wanting to putt. It kept barking the whole time. No big deal though. The girls working the concessions were friendly and courteous. The course was in great shape and looked lush green.

Used cart

Paid a good price to play 18+cart at Devou. Weather was perfect. Pace of play was poor. Doesn't matter if you hit a great drive and it lands in the middle of the fairway, it will take off into the deep rough or end up OB due to the slope of the whole course.

Slow play

Came later in the afternoon, pace of play was 30 min per hole. Could have been because of league play. Course was in good shape though

Poor conditions, confusing layout

Late April and course conditions weren't great. Greens were fair, tee box and fairways were poor. Needs more and clearer signs on where holes are at. Layout was confusing at times knowing where to go. Clubhouse is nice.

nice course!

had a very nice time. course is quite challenging with gorgeous views and lots of hills. extremely well maintained greens. cart paths were not ideal . pace was average to slightly slow due to many apparent beginners.. not a course for beginners or neophytes in terms of difficulty. will probably play again. my review is based on the front 9.

love this course

love the course. still early in the season so the fairways had alot of weeds coming up. greens were great as usual. love this course because you have to think about what shot you want to hit. cant just pull out driver on every hole.

Not a fun day

Place was booked solid. No starter/ranger. Slow play. They let a 5 some out . Greens were just airated and NOT rolled. Putting was unpredictable! If I was informed about the greens, I would have played elsewhere.
