Making progress.

This is an old line, well-designed course that is making a slow but steady comeback under the new ownership. Keeping the price reasonable even for a public course, the course keeps improving. Enjoy playing there.

Good municipal course

Greens in great condition, course in good condition, still a lot of downed trees from summer storm to clean up. Looking forward to more improvements under new management.

Course was well worth what we paid for

The course was in very nice condition for the price. We had a great time playing. The only issue we had was the pace of play was extremely slow. But other than that it was great and we would play it again.

Overall the course was OK. The sand traps were in excellent shape. The fairways and rough could have had the leaves blown off them and there were downed trees throughout the course that appeared to have been there for some time. Use caution while on the cart paths as they are in horrible shape.

Good value for money

Course has a good layout with some long challenging holes. Greens just punched but overall course is in decent condition.

Very nice course

Love this course. Seemed a bit short staffed. Pace of play was a little slow.
