Nice place to play

Played here because of the hot deal and one of the only course that still have decent greens in this hot weather.

Course was in really good condition.

Good Time

We had a great time, but there are areas where you don't know where the next tee box is, with no signs pointing the way. There was a ton of crab grass everywhere. The layout was interesting and entertaining. Overall, a good time.

Layout is confusing

The only issue I really had was after I was done with Gomez’s I had no clue where to go to find the tee box for the next hole. I wish they offered hole/course map in the carts. Especially if you’ve never played there.l before

Great course for the money.

The course was great. People were friendly. The greens were in great condition. The fairways wasn't the best but I'm sure the recent weather didn't help. Overall, I'd definitely play this course again. Recommend it to anyone.

8am tee time…. Gate was locked and staff arrived at 7:50. Golfers like to be early and warm up on greens and chips….. but no time with this place.

Got some work to do.

I played this course about 5years ago and was in better shape then. Having said that, I talked with the gentleman in the pro shop and he told me that this course has gone through 2 different ownership s in the last few years. The current owners are starting to get this course back to where it was. It’s an interesting set up between the two 9’s. The green were in great condition because of the watering they are doing to get them back in shape. They are doing some renovations so give them some time and it’ll be back there again!
