Great value for a course that was in mostly great shape( only a temporary tee box as the only negative) might be the best value around. The bar and restaurant were great as well, super friendly staff.

Windy weather
Used cart

Always great to play a Donald Ross

Was a crazy weather day. Very hot and humid at arrival, but a major thunderstorm came in just north, and brought intense winds. At least that cooled things down for an hour or so.

The course had an interesting layout, with some crazy greens. You really have to hit to the correct area. Playing the course more than once would be helpful for scoring.

Conditions were very good. The course gets lots of public play, so there are some divots and ball marks.

Restaurant looked popular, but we did not have time.

Would happily play again.

I played there yesterday and enjoyed playing it. The course is in very good condition with the exception of one green that looks to have water damage. The greens were true with a lot of suttle breaks. There are a lot of elevation changes which make shots into the green challenging. I look forward to playing there again.
