Pathetic Greens

I don’t think this place even has a grounds crew. The greens have mounds of dirt in them. Snack shop was not open on a Saturday in May but staff will yell at you for bringing drinks on - how am I supposed to buy drinks when you are not selling any? Course has lots of potential but is poorly managed.

Greens need repairing

Greens on front 9 of course 1 were unplayable. Basically putting through sand traps.

This course is the equivalent of a stray dog afflicted with mange.

Terrible greens

I have played many municipal courses all over the country and this one had the worst greens I have ever played on. Covered with poa,large areas with no grass at all ,bumps ,patches with bare spots . Sad to see a Donald Ross design in that kind of condition.

Course #1

Early season round so things weren’t great. Most Tee’s and fairways were pretty good. Half of the greens were pretty good but others were not.

Most of the sand traps were ok but some needed attention. I played for 15 bucks walking and meet Sean on the back 9 and had a good time.

This is a course with amazing potential if just a bit more effort was put into it. It has all the looks that a golfer could ask for. The fairways were fine but the tee boxes and greens could certainly benefit from some TLC.

In spite of that, I really enjoyed playing the course.

Donald Ross knew what he was doing.

I booked the tee up time of 3:00pm, with including cart fees in the GolfNow. However, I had to walk because the last time for cart was 2:30pm. I didn’t receive the cart fees yet, and I will complain to the GolfNow later. The condition of green was not good, whereas the fairway was good rather than I expected.
