Amenities

The course and greens were in great shape. Better than the three private course in the area that I've played.

The only comment I have is that there was only one rubber tee on the 10 or so tee pads on the driving range. So, on my last two visits I couldn't really practice tee shots with my woods effectively.

I know this would be an additional expense, but for your senior golfers who have prostate issues, it would be nice to have a port-o-potty on the 5th and 14th holes. The only option now is to duck behind a tree which typically exposes you to the adjacent fairway anyway - guys could care less but with lady golfers it's an issue.

Good course, great layout, long and slow greens

Greens were in great shape but long and slow. They rolled true and were easy to stick from distance. The fairways were lush and well cut, the rough was fair for the price.

The cart paths could use some work but overall a good value for the money.

Disappointing

I brought along 3 other friends for a round of golf. Arrived 40 min ahead of time and also paid for our tee time early so that we could use the range to practice before our tee time. The old man you need to check in with before you start your round is nothing but rude and nasty. He interrupted us on multiple occasions during our range practice and yelled at us to come start our round of golf even though our tee time wasn’t up yet. The course is fairly easy but doesn’t look well kept up. Maybe the reason not many newcomers come by. Either way, it was our first time at this course and we sure won’t be coming back.

Great Course at a Terrific Price

First, the staff, from starter to pro shop attendant to the refreshment cart attendant are top notch. They are all welcoming, knowledgeable, and friendly.

The course is well maintained and the cost very reasonable for a round. The app is well designed and great for those looking to schedule a tee time in advance.

Course is easy to get to with plenty of parking. Each time I’ve played there the pace is decent, people are forgiving and the play styles are diverse with no one taking themselves too seriously.

Cart Path horrendous

Greens are in decent shape, Fairways are hard and patchy .Tee box decent shape ..The starter is more worried about signing for carts than pace of play or course flow...just saying ....
