Not Great Shape

I've played this course several times and have to say it was probably in the worst condition I had ever seen it. I expected it to be in better shape as we ramp up to the season, instead tee boxes were rough and greens were pretty bumpy. Fairways and rough were fine.

Very nice course

The course was in excellent shape for the most part. Some traps needed more sand. Greens were excellent, medium/fast. I would play here all the time if green fees were lower. I paid $23 with a hot deal on golf now, normally their regular fee is too high for me.

Nice course, great staff and grest value.

I viewed this course with trepidation as it was so far out of the way and it was sensibly priced. My expectations were exceeded. The course was in good shape, the staff was very welcoming, and the pace of play was good. As a side note, the food at the course was excellent and the clubhouse quite nice. I will definitely play the course again.

Conistantly good

Just a great course. Early in the season but the greens were still true and consistent despite a recent aeration. Many visible capitol improvements make it a much nicer experience than local competitors.

Still have some work to do

Although the new owner has made quite a few improvements, there is still lots to be done. Tee boxes are in terrible shape. Pace of play is terrible - took almost five hours. They try to blame it on a frost delay but that doesn't cut it; once the players are on the course it should make no difference to pace of play - the marshalls are afraid to offend slow players.

Great Course, Play to the Fairway

Excellent experience for my 1st time at this course. Nearly all holes are lined by OB so play to the fairway. The course plays rather short so most holes only require a 3 or 4 iron to have a nice sub-130 approach. I will definitely be back!

Enjoyable round of golf

Played on a Monday late morning. Pace of play not an issue since it was not busy. No marshal, none needed. Layout of course was somewhat challenging from the Senior tee box. Although the course is within a residential area the homes are some distance and often not noticeable. Fairways and greens were well maintained however tee boxes and the fringe around the greens needed attention. Most traps had good and plentiful sand. Rough was cut but thick. Enjoyed the round and will be back.

Dog Track

This course has the potential to be a nice, challenging course. The fairways are mostly hard pan with more weeds than grass, they obviously don't know about crabgrass preventer. The greens were in decent shape, though they were a little hairy, the tee boxes had very little grass and what was there was crabgrass. The fairways were very tight with OB on both sides, on quite a few holes, so keep the driver in the bag for most of the round. Most of the bunkers were full of nice white sand, but some were almost empty, so check before you swing or you could skull the ball very easily. For the most part, I was pretty dissatisfied with the experience, but the staff was very friendly.

Tee boxes poor

Played this couse several times and enjoyed it. However, the tee boxes on several holes (4 to 5) jare in terrible condition. Overall, the course in the past has been good but it 's condition is going downhill as the summer passes.

Good value

I have not played this course for several years. Took advantage of the Golfnow deal. I was very surprised at the exceptional course condition in the middle of August. Great fairways and greens. What I was most impressed was the condition of the bunkers. Plenty of sand in every bunkers that I was in. Many courses in the area has almost no sand in the bunkers.

I would come again if the price is right. My partners were all impressed.
