Extremely slow play

Course conditions were ok but the pace of play was horrific. Over 3 hours for 9 holes. Played behind a men’s league and they were in our fairway on nearly every hole.

I cancelled two cart reservations at the club on the day before and still am waiting for a credit to appear on my card.

Will not invite friends back to this course to play, especially on a weekend.

Hidden Gem!

Hidden gem for me at least. Really fun course, wide open but some interesting design challenges. Easy check-in/out, good food, helpful staff.

Great course and only area of concern would be course condition but likely due to early in the season.

First Time Early April

I’m was very impressed with the greens here. They were firm, fast and full. The fairways were a little banged up in spots but that’s to be expected in early April with the course just opening. I golfed a round with another gentleman in 3 hours 45 mins. Not much waiting. Went inside after the round for some food and beers. Wings were phenomenal!
