Beautiful but challenging course

This is a scenic and well-maintained course set in hilly terrain. The staff and golfers are very friendly and even supportive, but it is challenging for a beginner because of the moderately fast pace (new parties every 10 minutes) and many hazards. Distance between greens and next tees tend to be long and a cart is almost a must. Beginners can enjoy this course if not too focused on score and can afford to lose a lot of balls! Intermediate and advanced golfers have told me they always find it "satisfyingly" challenging as well!

Really nice

LOVE the grass on this course. It's deep where it needs to be, soft in the fairways and the first cut, the greens were fast and my ball stuck on them during my approach. Highly reccommend

Nice Challenge

I can’t say a beautiful, cloudless day at 65 degrees didn’t help, but this course was as good as any I’ve played in the last 6 months. It was the only one in recent memory that had fast fairways where balls actually ran out. Greens were fast but slightly bumpy from aeration. Tees were in reasonable shape. For me pace of play never counts against a course because it’s not their fault. The layout is challenging but not unfair. Lots of varied terrain and many memorable holes. If course was $10 less per round, I would say it was a value. Overall, a good play for $60 or less.

Hard dry and fast greens.

Course was very dry, hard, and fast. Several dry spots around the greens. Needs some water. Greens were ridiculously fast due to hard dry conditions. Maybe it was meant to make you feel like you am were at Winged Foot. Landed a good pitching wedge 1 foot from the pin and it bounced and rolled to off the back. Pin was in the middle. Nice layout and challenging. A bit more expensive than courses in the area and I didn’t see why.

First time playing...

I really liked this course. There was a very slow foursome 2 or 3 ahead of us, and course management/starter took care of the delay. I don't know how they resolved it but once the alert came on the GPS, within 2 holes, we never saw the foursome in front of us again.

I thought the course was in great shape. Grass Driving range was very nice as well. Driving range was a bit crowded for my liking.

I used a hot deal and had a 15% coupon for this course and paid $52. I am a cheap golfer and felt $52 was a good deal for this course, but don't know if I would pay any more.

Would I play again? Absolutely. But wouldnt want to pay more than $50-60 range.

Would give 5 stars if not for sandy greens due to aeration of 3 weeks ago. Fairways in great shape. Hadn't played here in 15 years and I'll be back again. Will be a yearly stop with tee time pass.

Great course

The best course I’ve played on this season. Great condition and layout.

I would suggest the club house get faster with food at the turn. Players want to get in and get out so it won’t slow the flow of play.

My group will return!

UNFRIENDLY STAFF!!

The golf course itself is very pretty but the employees who work in the club house are pompous jerks. They were disrespectful, they overbook the course and speak to guests as if they are better than them. I have never felt more disrespected at a golf course in my life. It's a nice course but it overbooked, overpriced and employees treat the patrons as second class. There are better courses in the area with better deals and NICER staff.
